All #rustconf talks are out now! 🥳 Here's mine if you want to learn more about the CI of the Rust compiler: youtube.com/watch?v=Gzk4uG…

I just published a new version of the crates-io-auth-action GitHub Action! 📦 github.com/rust-lang/crat…

⛔ New video (FINALLY!!) My first in-person RustConf in Seattle changed everything. I was there as a speaker and creator, and that energy convinced me to go ALL-IN on Rust! 🦀 Everyone I met was incredibly friendly and welcoming. I recorded 15 quick interviews to capture the real faces and the massive potential behind the code. Huge thanks to Ernest Kissiedu (@RustLondon_) and @rust_foundation for the support and for making this possible. Honored to chat with: Niko Matsakis @spastorino @MarcoIeni Walter Pearce Jeremy Soller (@redox_os) Taylor Cramer Jack Huey Salvador Salazar @MikaylaCodes @v_bragilevsky @algo_luca @NathanielSimard @jacobvcreech @AndyQuinteroM See you in Montreal for RustConf 2026! 🍁

@orhundev @ratatui_rs I was gelous of ratatui and wanted a project with a rat logo as well 😂

@marcoieni love the name and logo! needs @ratatui_rs !

Since I'm editing GitHub settings in an automated way, I need to take a lot of screenshots as a backup. I created a small CLI that takes a list of URLs and captures full-size screenshots using playwrite. 📸 github.com/marcoieni/mult…

My RustLab talk (Nov 2025) is online! 1.5 years in the infra team: what we cooked and what's next 🧑‍🍳 youtube.com/watch?v=f1vcA2…

Trying to take the pragmatic solution over the perfect one

Folks, there's an impersonation scam on Discord (and possibly elsewhere) that uses tech people's names and photos to slide into your DMs. If you get a friend request / DM from "me" out of the blue: (1) it's almost certainly not me (2) feel free to ping me here to check!

cargo-semver-checks v0.46 was released earlier this week ✨ It comes with 45 *new* lints. Almost 20% of *all lints* are new in this release — this is wild!! Exponential growth, manifested. github.com/obi1kenobi/car…

Optimizing cargo-binstall metadata on cargo-binstall itself: done ✅ 😂 github.com/cargo-bins/car…

The future of Rust isn’t hypothetical. It’s taking shape in real codebases, real teams, and real decisions right now. We’re inviting #rustconf talks that reflect that reality. CFP open — but only until Feb 16 ⌛ bit.ly/4qxOfBb #rustconf26

End of an era for #rustlang contributors. The merge queue used by the rust repository itself was rewritten in Rust! You can find it at github.com/rust-lang/bors/

The #rustlang infra team just published a new blog post to summarize the most important achievements of Q4 and what we plan to do in Q1 2026 blog.rust-lang.org/inside-rust/20…

GitHub hosted runners are now cheaper for all projects! Self-hosted runners remain free for open source projects. This is a net positive improvement for public repos 🎉 resources.github.com/actions/2026-p…

@1mmarq It's a company producing server racks. The firmware is almost entirely rust and open source

@marcoieni Does this run hardware too?

Show me one machine built w rust

@NeoSmart You're right!

@marcoieni You’re using with_context wrong. It’s for when you have allocations or other expensive code paths.

A simple way of handling errors in Rust using the anyhow crate

@eepyalex I always notice this mistake when I review code 😅😅

@eepyalex Oh you are right, that's so embarrassing 😅

@Adarsh_Web3 I also do it when I need to distinguish errors and not just report them

@marcoieni I create an enum of huge error list 😓

@DameraTharun I use both depending on what I need! 😁

@marcoieni I tried anyhow but then i needed some centralized error enum in my projects so i only use thiserror instead.
