Why Static Typing Came Back

TL;DR

- Static Typing was a pain to use in 1990s and you still got type errors at runtime

- At that time the Web came to the scene and with it the need to ship and iterate faster

- The Internet speed was a lot slower back then, and so the obvious lack of runtime speed of dynamic languages didn't matter

- But everything changed in 2010s. The compilers and type checkers became a lot faster and friendlier. The statically typed languages became less verbose and "ceremonial".

- And now we are in an age of statically typed languages with even more of them in active development.

As far as I remember you could previously install the rust compiler package via apt but obviously it was a fixed version and it caused some pain. Now it's much better

It seems like OCaml will be the next (actually used) language to get a borrow checker - https://blog.janestreet.com/oxidizing-ocaml-ownership/

I will be speaking at RustCon Moscow this Friday. So I am looking forward to meeting you there! The conference will be also streamed online, though you'll still have to acquire a ticket to join the stream.

Многие rust-разработчики уже имеют опыт работы с асинком или как минимум читали асинхронный код. Но практически всегда используется готовый рантайм, чаще всего tokio.

Ведущий разработчик Picodata Егор Ивков расскажет, как получилось, что им пришлось писать собственный асинк рантайм и набор примитивов для работы с ним. И как этот рантайм оказался построен поверх совершенно другой концепции многозадачности — файберов.

Приходите 1 декабря на RustCon 2023, чтобы услышать его доклад «Case study: Rust Async on Top of Fibers
(Bringing 2 concurrency patterns together)».

Егор не только опытный Rust-разработчик, но и опытный спикер: в 2022 году он уже выступал на RustCon с докладом. Так что будет вдвойне интересно побывать на его новом выступлении.

Конференция RustCon состоится 1 декабря 2023 года в Москве, будет организована онлайн-трансляция. Билеты можно купить на сайте.

Hey! Happy New Year everybody! I wish you to have lots of inspiration and energy for everything you do next year!

All that's left is to publish it as a library😎

I am doing a welcome lecture about Rust upsides and downsides for this awesome platform inzhenerka.tech So if you are just getting started with Rust, it might interest you😉

Cursed, but there might be cases where this would be the way

match match is legal and can be occasionally useful

- playground
- real-world example from rust-analyzer
- people even do if if sometimes

thanks to @LennyLizowzskiy for suggesting this!
