We're excited to be contributing two sessions on Rust at Oxidize 2026: 🛠️ Workshop: Safety-Critical Rust Development with Ferrocene, led by Alexander Senier and Manuel Hatzl 🎙️ Panel: Executing High-Assurance Projects in Rust: Practical Insights, hosted by Florian Gilcher Hope to see you in Berlin!
Writing software in #RustLang doesn't make it safety-critical. Memory safety isn't the hardest problem - mismatched assumptions and undocumented contracts are. At #Oxidize2026: a workshop on building a safety case, talks on Unsafe Rust and spacecraft failures, and a panel on regulated environments.
🦀 Jonathan Pallant of Ferrous Systems shares the story behind building a GUI application in Rust on QNX, and how Rust's lifetime annotations helped prevent use-after-free bugs. 🔗 qnx.software/en/blog/2026... #RustLang #QNX #FerrousSystems #Ferrocene
