How can you support me?
All of the articles, videos, and open source contributions that are made here are funded directly by individuals and companies through donations.
- GitHub Sponsors is based in the US, pays through Stripe
- Patreon has the highest fees, but it’s here too out of convenience.
The “Silver” tier gives you advance access to articles and videos, one week before they’re made available to everyone else. Every piece of content ends up publicly available eventually — I consider my work a public service.
For those who cannot afford to pitch in financially, you can still help:
- Follow me on Bluesky or Mastodon
- Subscribe to my YouTube channel
- Subscribe to my RSS feed
- Send me good vibes by e-mail
I’m extremely lucky to be able to contribute to the Rust ecosystem as an independent, and can only do it through the support of people like you.
Thank you so much for your continued support, I owe y’all everything.
Did you know I also make videos? Check them out on YouTube!
Here's another article just for you:
Frustrated? It's not you, it's Rust
Learning Rust is… an experience. An emotional journey. I’ve rarely been more frustrated than in my first few months of trying to learn Rust.
What makes it worse is that it doesn’t matter how much prior experience you have, in Java, C#, C or C++ or otherwise - it’ll still be unnerving.
In fact, more experience probably makes it worse! The habits have settled in deeper, and there’s a certain expectation that, by now, you should be able to get that done in a shorter amount of time.
