Rust Conf 2022
Arriving in Portland Oregon Soon
RustConf will run from 9:30 am to 5:30 pm; exact schedule details will be posted soon. All times in UTC-7. RustConf is the website link.
North America’s most popular Rust Programming Conference is coming soon. Rust Conf 2022 is being held again in Portland Oregon at the beginning of August. Last year it was held in September and now with the move last year to hold the conference mostly virtually, it is being held closer to the original time which was always in August.
Last year when I attended there were some tickets available at a much-reduced cost per person of $5 a person. Those were reserved for those unemployed or having trouble finding work because of the pandemic. Now that same program is back as a scholarship ticket of $6. This gives students a chance to attend this great Rust conference without putting a hole in their budget.
This year’s speakers include:
Alice Cecil:
Do you ever wonder why converting users into contributors for your open source project is so difficult? Are you annoyed by how difficult and confusing your favorite project is? Feeling overwhelmed by the backlog of issues? Investing in transparency, contributor onboarding, and clear job prioritization is frequently the single most productive thing you can do. Open source projects frequently concentrate on flashy technological capabilities. This session addresses how to modify fundamental project management practices to meet the particular difficulties faced by both large and small open source teams.
Aria Beingessner:
Rust is frequently lauded for having excellent manuals, libraries, and tools. Safe Rust is, in fact. Rust is a mess and unsafe. When you inquire about The Thing For Complex Problems, what else can you expect except “it’s complicated”?
Iryna Shestak:
Compilers are incredibly useful outside of their typical setting with the correct care (plenty of sun, proper nutrition). In fact, we created one for the query language GraphQL! Learn about the development of apollo-rs, from its beginnings as a powerful, lossless, recursive-descent parser with excellent errors to its current state as a query-based, diagnostics-first, user-friendly modern compiler.
Joshua Nelson:
The history of bootstrapping the Rust compiler, how bootstrap functions currently, and some significant ideas for bootstrap going forward are all covered in this session.
Julie Wang:
Learn how we create firmware in Rust, control and simulate the freight car, and even wrap deep learning libraries so that they are all available in Rust by joining us.
Nick Cameron:
Explains how Rust async and await function. This should be good.
William Brown:
How Rust behaves in OpenSUSE.
Xe Laso:
Will cover a brief overview of the PAM API, the surreal horrors of how PAM actually works, how to meet that API in Rust so you can write your own authentication logic, and finally examples of cool things you can do with this.
I hope to see you there. Actually, I will be attending online as I did last year.
