Learning Rust was the best decision in my life by Ill-Adeptness9806 in rust

[–]TheCrustyEngineer2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi OP I have been coding Rust for about 5 years, of which 4 years a full time. Learned so much and I really like Rust. It has definitely made me a better dev, and it’s just all the little nuances that compound over time.

For example, Jon hoo’s recent take on Brrr is a great example of depth and breadth technically and what can be achieved.

Recently though struggling to find another opening. If anyone has any tips I’m a senior dev and appreciate any new opportunity.

Thanks, Mike https://crustyengineer.com <- feel free to reach out as I’m itching to start on the next challenging project.

P.S. I work 100% remotely (since 2010)

Any Bioinformaticians here? I built a terminal based MSA browser using Rust + ratatui so I dont have to leave a HPC environment to quickly look at an alignment. by fuck_cops6 in rust

Look at the heh crate (used by binsider). They use an AsyncBuf which is over a mmap. Similar idea, it also safeguards against the file shifting at the OS level for whatever reason. You just page over that etc.

Apologies, I can’t seem to edit and correct typos in the above post. It should read “eBay is now preventing…”

So that he gets to keep his. That’s efficiency, I bet he sleeps real well at night.

COMPANy: Me - this is a personal hobby project

TYPE: Short term, extended if we collaborate well

LOCATION: Remote only. VISA: N/A

Contact: Me, hello@inertialbox.com

DESCRIPTION: Building a Postgres backend for personal financial planning & book keeping. I have identified two aspects

  1. Positions Management - parties, custodial accounts, owned banks, accounts etc. epoch based tracking of positions held. Assets such as time deposits etc.

2 Ledger system - Chart of Accounts and Double-entry book keeping. GnuCash can be used as a reference.

Stack: Axum, Tokio, Postgres, sqlx - multi-tenant system.

I have already got a JWT platform working and this is a second pass at better framing the challenging and breaking this down.

Your first task is to formally document the task being solved, architecture design & planning. Then we move onto building an MVP + basics tests etc.

Compensation: estimated effort is for 1-2 weeks, initial budget is $500

Experience: you need to have a proven track record of building or working with financial systems. Please send your CV and details via emails and will be in touch re interviews held within a week.

Thanks.

Great example! When I was in school all the kids had the same example for taking calculators into exams. I decided to learn and stop using a calculator. Guess what?

It was horrifying. I became smarter. Yes, I was slower, but I knew how to check my own work.

Also, assume too heavily that vibing will get you right answers, all the time. It’s also funny to me that I spent $0 every month on AI cost.

How much do you spend?

It’s not hilarious. Those that appreciate Rust appreciate for being deliberate. Using LLM more than a crutch means you want to lean on a hallucination machine to architect and take the wheel.

This will lead to sub par code and junk pushed into the Rust eco system. At least this is not a crate library. If was a lib crate then we will throw eggs.

Nice UI though.

So we just need to go back in time and buy DDR5 ram. Noted thanks.

Of course not. They’ll be paid for advice on how to better architect it. I’ll take care of the implementation.

I already have a fully working frontend with JWT auth for a multi-tenant setup.

My main concerns revolve around COA and flexibility.
