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 PeerTube and also YouTube!
Here's another article just for you:
Declarative memory management
It feels like an eternity since I’ve started using Rust, and yet I remember vividly what it felt like to bang my head against the borrow checker for the first few times.
I’m definitely not alone in that, and there’s been quite a few articles on the subject! But I want to take some time to present the borrow checker from the perspective of its benefits, rather than as an opponent to fend with.
