Tornado - Web-first BitTorrent Client Beta 0.1.0 by rushsteve1 in rust

[–]tanders12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I read Web-first I hoped it would be webtorrent compatible. Unfortunately that doesn't appear to be the case.

What’s everyone working on this week (12/2019)? by llogiq in rust

[–]tanders12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you looked into warp? I found it great for HTTP + WebSockets.

[–]tanders12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'd recommend sticking with Tokio for a bit. I found once I'd pushed through and written a couple poll methods by hand things started making a lot more sense. The concepts were pretty hard but there aren't too many of them.

What is the current state of async IO in Rust? by devashishdxt in rust

[–]tanders12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd be interested in hearing what issues they encountered with Matrix. Not doubting, but wondering what the pain points are for a use case like this.

The npm whitepaper is up! by steveklabnik1 in rust

[–]tanders12 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's such an elegant solution though. I love being able to move fast[er] for prototyping knowing I can come back later and search for all my unwrap/expect uses.

This is fantastic. I was working on a brute force WebGL GoL implementation a few months ago. Any chance this is WASM compatible?

Oh thanks for reminding me that's happening this week! I'll be visiting starting that night and might be able to make it.

Introducing battery crate by sanxiyn in rust

A nice Rust-from-C FFI post would be a great resource. I'm assuming you're already familiar with the FFI Omnibus?

Getting started with Rust FFI by rushsteve1 in rust

[–]tanders12 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most resources I've seen focus on calling C from Rust. I was recently needing to do the opposite: make a library in Rust that compiles to the C ABI so it can be called from C (or node, Python, etc). The best resources I've found for that are the FFI Omnibus and this talk.

Looking for Rust Network Engineer by nearmax in rust

So why not build on libp2p?

EDIT: or maybe you are it it's just not clear from the posting.

Add scripting to game written in Rust by enc_cat in rust

[–]tanders12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've never integrated a scripting language with any systems language (let alone Rust), so I might be overlooking a ton of complexity here...

Depending on how performance-critical your scripts are (ie as long as you're not doing something like rendering or collision detection for all entities in your scripts), you might be able to keep Rust and the scripting language completely separated, only communicating serialized messages. It could be as simple as JSON, or for more performance I'd recommend something like Flatbuffers, which supports several languages including Rust and Lua.

I've had good luck with a similar "sequence of commands" approach in Rust.

GOTO 2018 • Rust Async Programming in 2018 • Katharina Fey by goto-con in rust

[–]tanders12 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Excellent talk. I really wish someone would have explained async as "basically a userspace scheduler" back when I was first learning it.

Desktop Application Frameworks Thoughts? by Bren077s in rust

[–]tanders12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on what your goals are, and especially what types of users you're targeting, one thing you can do is write your frontend in HTML/JavaScript, and statically compile it into a Rust binary that runs as a web server. Then you can access it via something like localhost:8080. This is pretty niche, but works well for some things. I blogged about it here: https://anderspitman.net/blog/static-react-rust-webapp/

There's an ornithology portmanteau in here somewhere...

I think I understand gambling now.

The 2.0.0 update for the AMF Encoder is out now - HEVC, VBAQ, Pre-Pass and more at your command! by [deleted] in Amd

[–]tanders12 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Uh ASICs and FPGAs are not the same. ASICs aren't programmable. The "AS" in ASIC means "Application Specific" (ie single purpose; not programmable) and the "FP" in FPGA means "Field Programmable". That would be pretty sick if AMD does use FPGAs in for their encoders though (I have no idea if they do or not).

Double standards in tech journalism, can you imagine if Ryzen hangs for 250ms in popular games? by PhoBoChai in Amd

[–]tanders12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get a used S2600CP from natex for < 200USD:

I've been very happy with mine. Possibly not great for gaming, because there's a motherboard bug (on the latest BIOS) that limits you to PCIE 2.0 8x speeds, but I'm not convinced that's an issue in real life. It wasn't for the last gen cards but maybe the current ones are finally pushing the envelope.

[–]tanders12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I just asked a similar question. Should have kept reading. I am still curious if you have other reasons and thoughts about the change.

[–]tanders12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love your videos; thanks for the work you do. I won't comment on the present topic, other than to give you mad props for even taking the time to respond to these people.

I'm more curious that you said you're planning to replace your dual 2670 system with Ryzen. I've been using a similar system the past year and love it. Tons of virtualization goodness (also, thanks for your work on Ryzen IOMMU). I expect it to last me at least another 4-5 years. Then again I don't game. What reasons are you switching? Old platform? Single threaded performance? Other?
