Pete 🙆

tfw you get asked "why Rust in Automotive" and you have the recorded talk ready to go link to talk in thread

submit this one to join up to a Subcommittee: github.com/rustfoundation…

seem kinda cool? wanna get involved? submit this to join the Safety-Critical Rust Consortium: github.com/rustfoundation…

Feb newsletter coming out a bit late, but better than never for the Safety-Critical Rust Consortium! top pulls: - baseline SCRC RFC got merged - increased stability and guidance for coding guidelines - the Safety-Critical Rust roadmap was accepted into the Rust Project Goals

@neogoose_btw pretty sure this is poking fun at a recent thing where someone made a listing of tools also used by people that use their software as-if to mean that these companies were all users oh crap, does that mean i'm on this app too much ;-;

This is all impressive and all but I am sorry since when this became a real metric? The total assets under management of my own open source projects users is > $100 trillion because it's used by the US government lmao

me using my $200/mo sub on OSS w/ ChatGPT time to let chat-gippity rest for some hours till i can go back to letting it rip on OSS I work on

you can grab the .ics from our meetings page here to catch the next one live: github.com/rust-sig/rust-…

next time Markus Hosch of BMW will come by to talk with us about C++ <=> Rust challenges, see our talk listing here: github.com/rust-sig/rust-…

the @SDVeclipse Rust SIG this week was good chance to chat about what we'd done on the Rust Vision doc team got into the details of folks trying to use Rust for safety-critical and challenges they are seeing if you missed this time, you can see the notes below

reminder that this starts in ~1 hour 48 minutes! link to the .ics is here: github.com/rust-sig/rust-…

if you're interested in getting involved, come on over! simple and easy as starting by submitting this GitHub issue template: github.com/rustfoundation…

contributions to the Consortium are not code, for the most part: - leveraging functional safety knowledge of an industry to support readiness testing and reporting like what Stefan has done - collecting together appropriate sets of tools for different stages of a safety-critical systems development - writing coding guidelines (okay, a little code here for examples)

props to Stefan Akatyschew for the work he did on mapping out how ready Rust is for automotive (ISO 26262)
