A language empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.

from rust-lang.org

Rust by itself is a great language, but what really makes it shine are its many great crates. The ecosystem around rust is one of the best there is, and its documentation is practically unrivalled. So lets look at some of those crates!

actix-web

Actix-web is an amazing web server framework for rust. It's modular, easy to use, intuitive and fast. It's also what lemmy is built on! So when you use this very site, you are using something build with actix!

Bevy

Bevy is a code first game engine for rust, based on the ECS paradigm. It's incredibly refreshing and different from most other engines. It is also unbelievably modular, in fact, just about every part of the engine cam be removed or added as you please! If you are every looking for something simple to play around, try bevy!

Tokio

The backbone of most asynchronous rust. It provides everything needed to build reliable, fast web applications!

Serde

Serde is the go-to library for serialization and deserialisation in rust. Its derive macros make it a breeze to use, and there are countless crates supporting various formats with Serde!

SQLx

SQLx is an amazingly simple sql handling crate. It is both feature rich and yet simple, and just a joy to use!

Reqwest

A neat little crate for sending http(s) requests! It's also used in Lemmy, and just about anywhere else where someone needs to do get some thing from an http(s) endpoint!

And this is far from all! Rust is a lovely language, with an even more amazing ecosystem!

Have an amazing week, everyone!

Thinking about an event in my teens when I was having pre-drinks with a bunch of guys, and one of them was joking about how I was mean to him, and I said a cutesy "aww, i'm sorry". It was kind of a dickhead frat bro-ish group and everyone just looked down and got super quiet for like 5 seconds and it was so fucking awkward.

distress

After that I realised I needed to act more masculine or people will think i'm fucking weird and I basically repressed my "natural" personality and way of communicating for years.

It genuinely boggles my mind how many cis people there are. Like you mean to tell me we all get assigned a social category at birth based on nothing but our sex characteristics and yet 99% of the population is like "hell yeah that doc was totally right."

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I watched a documentary recently which featured some trans people in Oaxaca, Mexico called Muxe, which is a third gender in Zapotec culture. they mention how many openly Muxe are in one town there, and I did the math which came out to about 3.5% of the town's population. This is around more than double the percentage of trans people in the US, which leads me to believe that there are a lot more trans people than we, or even they, know. Femicide and (trans)misogyny are still rampant down there which is surely a deterrent for people to transition, but still they have a lot more openly trans people where they have a historic precedent that being trans fits into the sociocultural framework.

Makes me wonder how many people would be trans in a fully communist society

went and took a concealed carry class yesterday and was apprehensive because i dressed full femme. It was hosted at a local pistol range. It ended up being lovely. The instructor was extra friendly to me (I sat in the front row). A cute little queer person (Pretty sure) was there and complimented my earrings. I love my town. I love being a woman!

HRT update: skin is getting softer.

Not all of it has changed yet so there'll be, like, sudden patches where it's less soft on, like, my arms or legs.

Bits that've changed feel nice, still getting used to the difference in how clothes feel on my skin though.

I have no idea how to talk to cis people
My (cis) guy friend has brought up me being trans a couple times (I guess to show support? That he remembers and thinks of me that way?) and I just have no idea what to say or do about the topic. I don't really have anything "real" going on (like starting hrt or anything) to talk about, most of my thoughts are just dysphoria and like, do I really want to complain to him about that. I don't know, its just new and I have a terrible time with new situations. Maybe I just joke around about it... but how do I do that...

Also my nickname is based on my dead name and I don't know what to do about that. Asking for him to call me my girl name seems awkward and I don't like the thought of that.

I don't know why I'm posting but creature I have a hard time with new things. god this process is going to be hard isn't it...

So hear me out: What if we somehow sponsor every single trans person in the UK to move to occupied Ireland/Belfast. Then, once they’re all living there, they all vote to leave terf island and reunify, then become new Irish citizens. So we save our trans comrades from the UK gov and reunite Ireland at the same time.

What do you all think?

2 weeks until I start HRT, I feel like I'm moving really fast since my egg cracked like 2 months ago but when I really look at it I've known for years and years and just suppressed it and I wanna feel happy about myself. Excited and anxious but honestly I'd start today if I could

cw: dysphoria i thinkreconsidering my relationship with gender again, as it happens every time I'm introspective and/or sick as i am now. like I've got serious neuroses about confrontation and change esp under my parents eyes and roof so I have done like zero experimentation, which sucks because I want to but my brain basically shuts down at the possibility, like there's a block there. traces of performative masculinity? fear of sticking out? which sucks because rationally I know I should start trying shit out. my sister is already growing her hair out and painting her nails, but I've gotten the same haircut for 10 years at this point and I just can't bring myself to like, deviate at all besides my absolute aversion to facial hair and body hair, but even the latter it's hard to get myself to maintain, partly because of ADHD, but even then I'm so neurotic about facial hair. the idea of growing a beard is so fundamentally repellant that shaving my face is one of the most consistent bits of self maintenance I am able to do despite my ADHD

it's to the point where it's causing self-doubt, because online I do present myself as I do and there's a dissonance between that and how I present and have tread IRL, where it makes me feel like I'm faking it online to not be a bog-standard white boy, that some aspect of this is just performance and wanting to feel like I'm part of the larger struggle when I'm rather privileged otherwise, being a suburbanite cracker who's going to college

but then that rubs against my very loud internal assertion that I really, genuinely don't like the more-masculine physical aspects of myself and have genuinely spent hours internally moping over, uh, not having boobs, well after no longer being pent-up (which makes me feel shitty to even qualify, but there are kink-related aspects to my internal mess of gender shit, so I feel like it's necessary to do so at least for my own rationalization) and every time I try a feminine face filter my feelings about it are an entangled mess in a way that someone secure in their gender identity probably would not experience on that level.

I guess it's the bit where despairing over the idea that I may not be trans is a form of gender dysphoria in-and-of-itself, but my thoughts on it feel way too messy and I'm deathly afraid that when I do experiment in a tangible way it will invalidate these feelings, and that's terrifying to me

I'm getting my orchi on Jan. 10 and am starting the process of getting top surgery. Not sure I'll be able to get top surgery before they ban gov coverage of GAC but at least I got the process started. If they do, I'll get it done privately and raise the money the old fashioned way, a combination of getting on my knees and also mutual aid

[–] [email protected] 19 points 3 weeks ago

Approval for the actual surgery part of my FFS went through today, all that's left now is to schedule it and start counting down. And if that wasn't amazing enough, I also finally got a refund check I've been expecting (but was told it could have come as late as 2028 lol) and it's more than I thought it was gonna be. Truly a fantastic day.

Alright so taking a break from Hexbear didn't suddenly make me good at making friends, the main issue is burnout and capitalism, but I did realize that reading Yuri is what recharges me when I burn out every day from work, so that's cool.

Also I made the mistake of going on reddit and found this and now you all have to look at it

late night anxiety postingAh, if only there was reliable feedback you could use to gauge how a social thing is going... Loprazolam I miss you...

I know that's way too literal and maybe gamified a way to look at talking to people, like it's not a system with rules, not really, even though neurotypicals say it is. But while I've been pretty content just going at it and yapping with people, there are definitely times where a thing happens and I desperately wish I could tell if it's the result of me being a huge fuckup or not.

Sometimes you just get left with nothing to go on, which is awkward and also leaves me wide awake at 7am combing over the same couple of conversations repeatedly trying to figure out if I did something stupid, which is extremely nerve wrecking seriously stop please.

Has anyone figured out how to git gud at not having anxious breakdowns like this, without needing to be medicated or whatever?
