A language empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.
from rust-lang.org
Rust by itself is a great language, but what really makes it shine are its many great crates. The ecosystem around rust is one of the best there is, and its documentation is practically unrivalled. So lets look at some of those crates!
actix-web
Actix-web is an amazing web server framework for rust. It's modular, easy to use, intuitive and fast. It's also what lemmy is built on! So when you use this very site, you are using something build with actix!
Bevy
Bevy is a code first game engine for rust, based on the ECS paradigm. It's incredibly refreshing and different from most other engines. It is also unbelievably modular, in fact, just about every part of the engine cam be removed or added as you please! If you are every looking for something simple to play around, try bevy!
Tokio
The backbone of most asynchronous rust. It provides everything needed to build reliable, fast web applications!
Serde
Serde is the go-to library for serialization and deserialisation in rust. Its derive macros make it a breeze to use, and there are countless crates supporting various formats with Serde!
SQLx
SQLx is an amazingly simple sql handling crate. It is both feature rich and yet simple, and just a joy to use!
Reqwest
A neat little crate for sending http(s) requests! It's also used in Lemmy, and just about anywhere else where someone needs to do get some thing from an http(s) endpoint!
And this is far from all! Rust is a lovely language, with an even more amazing ecosystem!
Have an amazing week, everyone!

happy to share! there's still people very close to me that just can't get past me not being a man and that's actually easier to disregard. like i'm clearly fucking not, how did you not see how shit of a job i was doing pretending to be one? but i've done this big thing, i've asserted that i'm a woman, and now i carry all these expectations of being a woman that i've only had 6 months to learn about.
when i found out i was autistic i became hyperaware of all the masking i was doing to pretend to be NT. when i found out i was trans i thought the same thing about pretending to be a man. but now that i'm out as trans, i've fallen right into another fucking framework that i have to conform to
specific examples. cw dysphoria, brainworms
best not to readahh that's for sure, it's a nice reminder that i don't have to be perfect. i know i've had lots of fuckups and i know i will continue doing so. thanks for that Maria ___
This comment is a lot all at once let's have a look... I swear I won't be mean.
You don't, though? You can always just not. Autistic cis women have been very pointedly not conforming that way for at least a while, and while yes it's not exactly the same, you really can just wear like, sweatpants and a hoodie, if you want. I do! There actually aren't rules, I promise. It gets easier, I think, as you go on and get more comfortable with your gender.
oh, brainworms
Sorry, is there a specific way women have to slouch their shoulders? I guess I've been cheating by not doing that and still getting gendered right... Plus, who actually pays attention to anyone's hip movement... I would say that shit's cisnormative but it isn't even,I can GUARANTEE YOU a decent percent of cis women do not meet whatever parameters you have set here. It all smells too much of "etiquette classes", fucking finishing schools set up by the bourgeoisie to uphold patriarchal norms... Shit, see CIS WOMEN need fucking CLASSES to learn this shit, even! It isn't real, it was made up BY A GUY
With regard to making yourself small, eh y'know, is femme only when someone is a certain definition of small? I'm not sure how much it helps though honestly... The outfit 'rules' though, that's not a real thing for anybody. I bet most people do not bother looking decent to go get groceries, y'know...
I promise you do, though. Anecdotally speaking I had worse results (in terms of misgendering) when I was deliberately presenting very femme all the time, Idk what that says about anything. But disregarding that you don't owe anyone a performance in exchange for basic respect, I'm just not sure it actually helps 100% of the time. I dunno, you could always start really small, like if you wanna wear the same outfit two in a row, you could? Go out with less or even no makeup, just do these once or twice as an experiment, see how it goes? I sort of took it slow too, I mean there was probably five or six years between the last time I went out fully dressed up as a matter of course, and the first time I went out in sweatpants and a hoodie, without doing my hair. You don't have to go full burn-your-bra right away, it's about being comfortable
Two things: One, you won't ever figure out what your "tell" was, first because it doesn't exist but also because whether or not anyone passes as a gender to someone else is an entirely subjective matter that has many factors, that amount to their perception of a person. Two, though, I'm not really sure all or any of the examples you cite are passing matters. Someone who's gonna be shit like that is just a transphobe, really it wouldn't matter if you were perfectively cisnormatively passing at all times. The second they know you're trans, that shit will come out. Trying to mold your appearance and presentation to the whims and perceptions of transphobes does not seem that cash money, and also they should die.
I don't know how much it even bears thinking about. Obviously getting treated differently by transphobe fucks like that is deeply unpleasant, but the problem is not with you, it's with them! and also they should die, violently. Knowing someone is trans (however that perception has been arrived at) should not change your treatment of them like this.
Yeah this is pretty much the core appeal of Nevada, I think. Maria as a character rules so much, even though she's sincerely shitty in many of her takes, the portrayal of her as a deeply flawed trans person absolutely rocks. Ah, my smelly beloved...
thank you, you were very kind (sorry it kind of spilled out all at once, i blame caffeine?). i'll try to take on your advice, i know you're right on every point - i just need to internalise it.
spoiler
yeahhhhh fuck that guy
i know and definitely fuck transphobes, but i think my anxiety tries to assume everyone thinks like one. they were shit examples too, my mind was traveling somewhere else but i was trying to highlight how much i think about passing. it's so exhausting. i'm sure it well get better with time though, i can hope
genuinely tysm for the chat , i got a lot to think about so i'm gonna go and chew on it
Oh no need to apologise, I didn't mean to imply it was "too much" or anything, good reply tbqh. And yeah the internalisation is the hard part :nyoro~:
spoiler
That guy deserves to be on the wall or something, there are a lot of probably-already-dead guys who have a LOT to answer for
Especially with autism, it's way too much to be thinking about all at once. Social cues and whatever is enough, no more weird incomprehensible garbage please! I mean, for sure some people do think like transphobes (read: are transphobes) that way, but they're not even remotely worth worrying about, fuck em tbh.
You're welcome and fuck yeah, !!!!! Lfg
