Does Dioxus spark joy?
Note: this article is adapted from a presentation I gave at a Rust Paris Meetup — that’s why it sounds a little different than usual. Enjoy!
Good evening! Tonight, I will attempt to answer the question: Does Dioxus spark joy? Or at the very least, whimsy.
What’s Dioxus, you ask? It is first and foremost a name that is quote: “legally not inspired by any Pokémon”.
rock 0.9.6 is on the loose!
Just 8 days after the last release, rock 0.9.6 is out.
To update, run git pull && make rescue as usual. To install from scratch,
clone the repo, cd into it, and run make rescue from there - it’ll download the latest bootstrap, compile itself from
C, then recompile itself from ooc.
Running rock -V should give you something like this:
rock 0.9.6 codename loki, built on Wed Feb 20 15:09:08 2013
Day 6 (Advent of Code 2020)
The end of Advent of Code 2020 is fast approaching, and we’re nowhere near done. Time to do Day 6!
The problem statement here is a little contrived, as uh, as the days that came before it, but that won’t stop us.
Basically, the input looks like this:
abc
a
b
c
ab
ac
a
a
a
a
b
Each line represents one person, and “groups of persons” are separated by blank lines.
The quest for ooc.vim
I’ve spent the past few weeks after rock 0.9.8’s release working on some of the neglected aspects of ooc, namely tooling support and performance.
My kingdom for a vim plug-in!
Well, technically, ooc.vim is a few years old, and it was even updated a few times to match new ooc features. But unfortunately, so far, it was limited to syntax highlighting.
Small strings in Rust
Hey everyone!
This article is brought to you by a shameless nerd snipe, courtesy of Pascal.
In case you’ve blocked Twitter for your own good, this reads:
There should be a post explaining and comparing smolstr and smartstring (and maybe others, like smallstr)
Well, I took the bait.
But, since this is me writing, I get to set the rules:
- There will be no “maybe others” - we’ll review just the first two
Developing over SSH
With the previous part’s VM still running, let’s try connecting to our machine over SSH.
Network addresses, loopback and IP nets
Normally, to connect to a machine, you’d find its IP address. On Linux, a decade
ago, you would’ve used ifconfig. Nowadays you can use ip addr:
The loopback interface (lo) is local, so it’s not useful to reach the box from
the outside: you can see it can be accessed over IPv4 at address 127.0.0.1 but
not just! What we’re reading here is 127.0.0.1/8, which corresponds to the range
127.0.0.1 - 127.255.255.255
2018 Retrospective
The year is drawing to a close, and I’m going off on a much-needed holiday next week. This seems like a good time to look back at the past twelve months!
I can’t believe that shipped
2018 was the year of foundational work. As far as “work work” is concerned, I spent the first 9 months finishing up my largest project ever, the itch v25 rewrite.
Deploying at the edge
Disclaimer:
Although I no longer work for the company my website is hosted on, and this article is written in way that mentions neither my previous or current hosting provider: at the time of this writing, I don’t pay for hosting.
One thing I didn’t really announce (because I wanted to make sure it worked before I did), is that I’ve migrated my website over completely from a CDN (Content Delivery Network) to an ADN (Application Delivery Network), and that required some architectural changes.

Day 7 (Advent of Code 2020)
Another day, another Advent of Code 2020 problem.
That one seems fun! For some nerdy values of fun.
Our input is a set of rules:
light red bags contain 1 bright white bag, 2 muted yellow bags.
dark orange bags contain 3 bright white bags, 4 muted yellow bags.
bright white bags contain 1 shiny gold bag.
muted yellow bags contain 2 shiny gold bags, 9 faded blue bags.
shiny gold bags contain 1 dark olive bag, 2 vibrant plum bags.
dark olive bags contain 3 faded blue bags, 4 dotted black bags.
vibrant plum bags contain 5 faded blue bags, 6 dotted black bags.
faded blue bags contain no other bags.
dotted black bags contain no other bags.
