2024/08/08

As we approach the finale of our second season, it's time for another recap.Could we shed some light on the current state of Rust's usage in the industry? What has changed in our perception of Rust in production since our last season?While more companies started to embrace Rust, some of the magic of Rust's early days is gone. I expect more ripple effects as the community clashes with the industry's demands.This episode takes on a more somber tone, as we peer into the massive tech debt we

Many devs dream of one day writing their own operating system. Ideally in their favorite language: Rust. For many of us, this dream remains just that: a dream.Jeremy Soller from System76, however, didn't just contribute kernel code for Pop!_OS, but also started his own operating system, RedoxOS, which is completely written in Rust. One might get the impression that he likes to tinker with low-level code!In this episode of Rust in Production, Jeremy talks about his journey. From getting

Rust can run everywhere, and by everywhere, we don't just mean on all operating systems, but also in all kinds of harsh environments: from the depths of the ocean to the vastness of space. Today we talk to a company that is using Rust to conquer the air. Fusion Engineering is building drone control systems for the next generation of drones.Jakub Valtar walks us through how Fusion Engineering came to use Rust as the foundation of their company.

It has become a trope by now: "Cars are computers on wheels." In modern cars, not only the infotainment system but also the engine, brakes, and steering wheel are controlled by software. Better make sure that software is safe. Alexandru Radovici is a Software Engineer at OxidOS, a company that builds a secure, open-source operating system for cars built on Rust and Tock. We talk about the challenges of certifying Rust code for the automotive industry and the new possibilities with

2024/06/13

The idea of smart robots automating away boring household chores sounds enticing, yet these devices rarely work as advertised: they get stuck, they break down, or are security nightmares. And so it's refreshing to see a company like Matic taking a different approach by attempting to build truly smart, reliable, and privacy-respecting robots. They use Rust for 95% of their codebase, and use camera vision to navigate, vacuum, and mop floors.I sit down with Eric Seppanen, Software Engineer at

There are probably only a handful of open-source projects that had a bigger impact on the world than Mozilla Thunderbird. The email client has been around for over two decades and has been a staple for many users (me included). Dealing with a legacy codebase that servers millions of users is no easy feat. The team at MZLA, a subsidiary of Mozilla, has been working hard to modernize the core of Thunderbird by writing new parts in Rust. In this episode, I talk to Brendan Abolivier, a software

Imagine you're faced with the challenge to build a system that can handle billions of recyclable items per year with the goal of being better than a human at identifying what can be recycled. Material classification is a complex problem that requires a lot of data and a lot of processing power and it is a cutting-edge field of research. Carters Schultz and his colleagues at AMP chose Rust to build the core of this system -- and it worked "shockingly well". In this interview, Carter,

In the season premier we talk to none other than Daniel Stenberg! We focus on integrating Rust modules in curl, their benefits, ways in which Rust and Rust crates helped improve curl, but also how curl helped those crates, and where curl is used in the official Rust toolchain. Along the way we also learn about the early history of curl and Rust, which section of your car's owner's-manual you should "re"-read, some weird HTTP edge-cases, and Daniel's experience in open-source

In an ever-expanding world of microservices, APIs, and devices, maintaining an overview of application states and the myriad errors that can occur is challenging. For years, Sentry has been a go-to choice for developers to monitor their applications and receive notifications about issues within their code.Traditionally, Sentry was predominantly a Python shop, but they became one of the early adopters of Rust in their technology stack. They have been utilizing Rust for a few years now (since

Have you ever wondered how computers stay in sync with the time? That is theresponsibility of the Network Time Protocol (NTP). Around since 1985, NTP is oneof the oldest protocols still in use on the internet and its referenceimplementation, ntpd, written in C, is still widely used today.That's a problem. C is a language that is not memory safe, and ntpd has had itsshare of security vulnerabilities. Here is a list of CVEs.As part of Project Pendulum, Folkert de Vries and his colleagues from
