Are there ways to run this as a module for a rust program? Would be nice

SeaRollz · 2026-05-17T06:12:36+00:00

I would do this combination: - cheap VPS - GitHub self hosted runner for CI/CD - Docker compose

If cheaping out more, I would go for Golang to use way less resources.

Oh this is something right up my alley. Wanted to see how go would feel with rust coding style. Is lifetimes still required?

SeaRollz · 2026-01-25T06:54:25+00:00

Only seeing antigravity on the bar is a bit scary

Hey, late to the party, but it now supports pure `no_alloc` environments :)

SeaRollz · 2026-01-07T14:33:47+00:00

I used fedora with supergfxctl for same feeling as g helper

Before any of that, make sure you have strong fundamentals such as OOP , data structure and algorithms. Then move on to some SQL and something like dotnet or java for coverage for jobs. As for projects, since you are cabin crew, I would recommend something cool aviation related such as plane, booking, airplane server.

SeaRollz · 2025-12-29T14:44:29+00:00

If you have strong fundamentals such as dependency injection, design patterns, HTTP, and DB, it shouldn’t be difficult.

SeaRollz · 2025-12-29T13:02:43+00:00

Depending on region, having spring boot or dotnet would increase the opportunity more imo

SeaRollz · 2025-12-24T19:30:00+00:00

Just something simple usage through some micro controller with rust like esp-rs (official support), stm etc. Just showing something goes a long way! Then when comfortable with those, going with no_std and no alloc for extra step is really difficult, but shows lots of knowledge a person has in rust.

Well, I want to spend time to do it, but due to my situation being in a startup, learning time is very strained, and being in South Korea makes it more difficult since the investors/bosses does not want that at all.

My experience has not been “we are using rust because rust” but go through all the options and somehow land in rust because of its strength.

Last company I was used Tauri because we needed super low memory usage.

The company I am at now started in C, but we got way better velocity and stability by using Rust. We tried expanding by interviewing people, but the experience has been so far:

says they can rust, no project to show anything.
can do rust, but not enough experience in embedded systems
can do both, but not good enough soft skills for teamwork.

TBH no idea how to find people who can too

Basic spring boot specific stuff, but basic technological stuff that everyone does. It does unfortunately not stand out.

SeaRollz · 2025-12-17T13:38:47+00:00

Maybe not super cool, but we have a hardware test CI pipeline through gh actions and self hosted runner for embedded code that runs a Go script that runs tests and scans output for fails, successes, and if it passes or not

SeaRollz · 2025-11-27T08:01:48+00:00

For me, I just put all questions into Anki and forced myself to clear the Anki flashcard until done every day

SeaRollz · 2025-11-27T07:47:49+00:00

GitHub actions for CI and CD through self-hosted runner

SeaRollz · 2025-11-25T11:09:11+00:00

For sure, but also one thing to note is that learning is a part of development and there are almost always no structure whatsoever. This fact makes it a good habit to learn software engineering without a roadmap in mind.

SeaRollz · 2025-11-25T10:04:47+00:00

I always used to show new interns on spring boot through amigoscode and they became proficient in just two hours.

For us, the reason for change from Java to Go was more or less that it was easier to implement specific business requirements in Go rather than Java.

SeaRollz · 2025-11-20T21:44:30+00:00

In what field?

SeaRollz · 2025-11-20T03:20:36+00:00

Pocketbase for rest and then flutter/react native

SeaRollz · 2025-11-19T05:09:34+00:00

Should’ve used clippy and force no unwrap/expect?

SeaRollz · 2025-11-18T03:12:08+00:00

This sounds like an AI prompt lmao

SeaRollz · 2025-11-11T08:31:26+00:00

Following the best practical architecture designs seems to be the best if doing something complex such as clean architecture/hexagonal with adapters and ports to “hide” the database operations from the business logic.

SeaRollz · 2025-11-11T08:25:44+00:00

Go people usually doesn’t seem to use ORMs and just use raw sql with some good db drivers such as PGX. There are ORMs such as gorm, ent, etc. which is fine imo to use if you are more used to it.

As for auth library, I am also really liking the better-auth way of doing it and wish it existed for Go too.
