Given the trend from who has expressed interest at giving a talk at Forge Rust so far, it looks like the biggest risk is creating a "white guy party". I have work to do to create a welcoming atmosphere.

Over 100 people have expressed interest in attending Forge Rust in New Zealand next year!! So I guess this is happening.

Spammers seem to have found the expression of interest form for Forge Rust 2025, so the conference has got that going for it

Doing some initial thinking about mini events at the side the Forge Rust conference.

Do any Wellington venues work well with childcare?

Are there any tour companies that you can recommend for hosting a partners/family programme?

Can anyone who plays MTG tell me whether a space for games would be better arranged as a formal tournament or just some tables and a whiteboard that allows players to self-organise?

Dear Rustacean, have you ever needed an excuse to visit New Zealand? https://forgerust.com/

For a "simple" format, there are a surprising number of incompatible variants of Markdown.

After a few weeks of feeling surprisingly negative about myself, I think that I am starting to regain a bit of spark.

Training sessions this week have been going really well.

I'm looking to buy a tablet as a second monitor while travelling. Does anyone have recommendations for a tablet that supports MiraCast to Linux (or some other way)?

Sorry about the self-promotion, but I think that this is one of the best videos I've produced. If you're learning Rust, I strongly recommend scheduling an hour on the weekend to watch it. https://youtu.be/J3C6sNK2wnk?si=5js8GOAOdfUmnhGs

@pdp Yes, I knew that this approach was flaky. I probably should have mentioned some of the facilities that tokio makes available, such as the JoinSet and the select! macro
