Bad news -- I'm not going to be with my employer for much longer due to team relocation demands. If anyone has any leads for roles that would allow me to continue my Rust compiler work (in New York City), they'd be greatly appreciated.

I contributed quite a few things to this release, including async closures and lots of parts of Edition 2024. I'm finally glad that it's out.

I'm trying to keep better track of what I'm up to in the Rust compiler, so I wrote a "blog" "post" that summarizes most of what I did in October.

I'm delighted to share with you a #Rust project we've been working on for a while called #Hyperlight. The Hyperlight project enables devs to use KVM or Hyper-V as a library for running hypervisor isolated funcs with extremely low-latency cold starts. opensource.microsoft.com/bloβ¦

Spent the last few days hyperfocusing on how to represent and validate const traits intuitively in the compiler, and I'm super satisfied with the output (though this PR is still some ways from landing): github.com/rust-lang/rust/puβ¦
Very excited for the future of const traits in Rust.

Thrilled to announce I'll be speaking at #RustConf about Rust's advancements in transmutation safety!
Safe transmute is already powering next-gen networking stacks, filesystems, and firmwares at AWS, Google, and others. Language-level support will be even more of a game-changer!

We have written a short technical dive into how we currently reuse Rust components within gccrs, a compiler written in C , and how we will continue doing so in the future, eventually compiling them using our own compiler. rust-gcc.github.io/2024/09/2β¦

Iβm super excited about this blogpost. The approach is so counterintuitive, and yet the results are so much better than anything else that weβve tried for memory safety. We finally understand why.

The first step to make it easier for rust compiler contributors to contribute on the GCC backend was just merged! We now build GCC artifacts in rust's CI.
Next step: download artifacts automatically with bootstrap.

A major feature got merged in rustdoc: merged doctests. Currently, doctests are slow because they are all compiled individually. Merged doctests however are, well, merged into one file, compiled once and then each of them runs in its own process.
