Here it is. My manifesto for the 2026 Clacton By-Election. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Join me, clean up Clacton and let's make 13th August Bin Day! #VoteBinface #VoteyMcVoteface #YesWeTinCan

IMPORTANT: For any artists/writers/etc etc, using Linktree to point people to their work, from 5 July, they'll be feeding all imagery you use on your landing page into DALL-E by OpenAI. I deleted my account this morning.

One of the largest drops in nhs waiting lists on record, which no one will now hear about. Opportunity cost from all the leadership turmoil www.england.nhs.uk/2026/05/heal...

EtherCrab 0.7 is out! Release post here: wapl.es/ethercrab-0-7/ A smaller release, but still a few quality of life improvements. #ethercat #rustlang #rust

Here's NASA having some fun rewriting their Core Flight Executive from C to Rust. They say it's not ready right now, but "we think this is the direction that things are going". www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaaV...

PCB Design Blocks just got merged into @kicad.org nightly, they can be linked together with Schematic Design Blocks. It's shaping up to be another great release! forum.kicad.info/t/post-v9-ne...

New heapless version is out! blog.rust-embedded.org/heapless-091 (And it's looking juicy)

3M's Versaflo powered air respirator is the most comfortable integrated eye/ear/lung protection for woodworking, but it starts at $1650. So I just bought the helmet for $225 and threw together the rest for $50 with a bit of 3D printing. kevinlynagh.com/papr/

Do I have any Rust folks following me that have a good and/or simple setup for IPC, particularly using some kind of mapped memory? At some point I'd like to get bbq2 working over shared mem IPC, and in particular how folks do things like efficiently notifying "the other process" when data is ready.

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

My thesis is now published online! 🎉 urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=...

Looking for new opportunities !

nrf-modem has been updated with some new (breaking) goodies and an up-to-date nrfxlib: crates.io/crates/nrf-m...

EtherCrab 0.6 is out as the latest version of my #rustlang #ethercat MainDevice! I wrote a short post going through some of its bigger features in more detail. Have a squiz: wapl.es/ethercrab-0-6/ crates.io/crates/ether...

Hugo, @diondokter.nl and Tamme attended Embedded World last week! It was a blast, and Rust was thriving! Tamme and Dion each gave a talk, they hosted a class together and we ran a both with James and Wouter. Thanks to everyone who visited for the great conversations! #ew25 #rustlang

By the way this is one of the incantations that you'll want if you ever plan to write a no-std crate. I feel like there should be a clippy pint to suggest this whenever you write a bare `#![no_std]`

I made a library to use the st3215 #servo motors with for #embedded #rust projects: crates.io/crates/st3215 It's tested with #embassy on #esp32, and on macos. Should also work on windows/linux. It's very early days, so jump on a thread here and I'll happily help you out.

Greg KH is a voice of reason downthread: lore.kernel.org/rust-for-lin...

He makes an important point re: Rust for Linux: "Rust is the entire reason our GPU driver was able to succeed in the time it did." I think this gets lost in public discourse on Rust and R4L. People are choosing Rust not just for memory safety, but for the confidence it gives to move quickly.

I've spent at least 900 hours since 2022 writing, testing, debugging, supporting and improving an #ethercat MainDevice implementation. But I guess we should all just rewrite everything from scratch whenever we need it because DePeNdEnCiEs!11! are ruining software. Shit take. antirez.com/news/145

Wrote up a very niche discovery I made this morning. Might be useful to other #rust/#rustlang #ethercat nerds. wapl.es/ethercat-sii...

The day is finally here! Poststation is now available to download/buy! The goal is to make it easier for more people to use postcard + postcard-rpc in their devices, and make it pretty painless to talk to multiple devices, or multiple versions of devices. Check it out here: poststation.rs

Welcome to my 🧵 on writing Rust 🦀 on the ch32v003, the 10¢ microcontroller. In this 🧵 I am going to highlight some key points from my article to help you write Rust on this little microcontroller.

In this one we learn about using embassy to do embedded development with async Rust: youtu.be/pDd5mXBF4tY

In case anyone wants a template for using `rustls` for ad-hoc self signed certs (and actually an ad-hoc CA), I polished up what I was hacking on today. It also dynamically regenerates a cert every time your IPs change, which seems useful to me. github.com/OneVariable/...

Upgraded my Linux kernel and now the Bluetooth, which has worked flawlessly for years, is now non-functional. We gotta stop writing stuff in C.

🦀 Short intro to Rust Embedded Development 🧵👇 I'll be using: * STM32F407G-DISC1 microcontroller (Cortex M4) * cortex-m crate crates.io/crates/corte... * stm32f4 crate crates.io/crates/stm32f4 The goal is to write a simple Rust program that enables some LEDs. Let's do it! 🚀 #rustlang #embedded

Woof. What a story. Welsh cartoonist Alex Norris is embroiled in a years long ordeal to fend off a US company that claims his strip is THEIR intellectual property. Norris has won several rounds in court, but the suits lurch on w/ crippling legal costs, which is no doubt the strategy.

Look at the cutest little computer you ever did see 😍 P.s. anyone managed to boot Linux on these #beckhoff things?
