My #RustConf '25 talk has posted! The story of adapting #rustlang at Rivian and Volkswagen Group Technologies ... Slides: docs.google.com/presentation... Rust jobs @ RVT: docs.google.com/document/d/e... Video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=3RIx...

A list of 🦀 Rust-friendly jobs at Rivian VW Tech has posted! US West coast and Belgrade are preferred, but exceptional candidates might be remote! The list will be kept up to date. docs.google.com/document/d/e... #rustlang #rivian

Who wants to work on some Rust code related to mapping and c++?

My first #RustConf presentation!

🇳🇿 Please support MapLibre and other fun FOSS4G talks you want to hear, either in-person or later as video recordings. ---- My shameless self-promotion 😊 * MapLibre - from data to tile rendering, in one status update * Tile serving with MapLibre/Martin/Planetiler - base and overlays Workshop

🎉 Major @maplibre.org success: @rivianofficial.bsky.social integrates a commercial map data source (Google) with the Open Source map visualization stack (MapLibre), offering flexibility and styling consistency across multiple platforms, while avoiding vendor lock-in www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...

My #rustconf session details this September

Thanks to everyone who came to see us at @stateofthemapus.bsky.social in Boston! I am not certain if there will be a recording, but the slides are here docs.google.com/presentation...

#HurfRust - the re-implemented project of the ubiquitous text (font) shaping engine #HurfBuzz has released its first v0.1.0 with heavy Google/Chrome support! RIIR :) github.com/harfbuzz/har...

I will be honored to present at RustConf 2025!

Updated the GitHub repo with a list of Geospatial Conferences 2025 🌍 Covers events on GIS, remote sensing, and more. Browse the list and improve it here: https://github.com/Nowosad/conferences_2025 #geospatial #gischat #remotesensing #geo2025

Rename any C++ items, including enum values, in bindgen. Pending review - github.com/rust-lang/ru...

Fascinating state of #rustlang at Microsoft by @markrussinovich.bsky.social (Azure CTO) Key takeaways: Rust is at every level of the stack, from UEFI to kernel/VMs to services to apps. Significant performance gain over C++ without even trying, productivity, security… www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Vgp...

Martin v0.16 is out, now supporting style sheet serving, plus nemerous other features and bug fixes... On top of that, Martin has been found to be the fastest map tile server! github.com/maplibre/mar...

Finally something I can use with my Tesla!

You can believe that the secret service just lets random people walk into the oval office without credentials Or you can believe that someone in the WH wanted TASS in that room There is actually no wiggle room here

All the #FastPFOR and related compression algorithms are now available in #Rust . Currently as a C++ wrapper, but eventually we hope to have pure Rust implementations as well. Thx to @lemire.bsky.social and @jjcfrancisco.bsky.social! crates.io/crates/fastp...

A Clippy lint to simplify Rust format expressions is being voted on to become "style". I think it improves code readability and eliminates some bugs. Please vote rust-lang.zulipchat.com#narrow/chann...

Rust v1.85 is out! Clippy now allows 3rd party crates to tag format!-like macros, like `log::warn!`, so any code misusing them will now be linted too. It only took me 2 years to get it working :) github.com/rust-lang/ru...

I just discovered a guide to using #martin-tile-server , looks like a good starting point. Big thx to Rilus for posting. medium.com/illumination...

We have a few #rustlang positions at Rivian! The needle is really moving :) Preferably in CA, but there are options. careers.rivianvw.tech/rivian-vw-gr...

📢 January 2025 Newsletter is here! We’re kicking off the year with exciting updates: ⚙️ Rust support progress for Native 🔤 Web font improvements in GL JS 💡 Read more: 🔗 maplibre.org/news/2025-02... #MapLibre #OpenStreetMap #OpenSource #Geospatial #FOSS

MapLibre Eastern Call after a pause! 🌏 📅 Date: Jan 29, 2025 ⏰ Time: 9:00–10:00 AM UTC 🔗 Join Here: tinyurl.com/maplibre-eas... This call will now be held on the last Wednesday of every month, tailored for the eastern part of the world. See you there!

The Maputnik editor for @maplibre.org supports vector PMTiles sources now: maplibre.org/maputnik Thanks to @implgeo.bsky.social, HarelM, WebFreak001 and ShellyDCMS for contributing on GitHub!

🎉 #MapLibre Native project just merged its first #Rust component, building for all platforms with Bazel and CMake support. This should allow simpler onboarding of the fast, stable, and secure rust components with minimal risk, and attract more contributors @maplibre.org github.com/maplibre/map...

It seems @maplibre.org GL JS v5 introduces a fairly significant breaking change in how it handles geometry types in a style - breaking a lot of well known map providers. Discussion is underway if this should be reverted... (but the globe view is still awesome!!!) github.com/maplibre/map...

This is, or should be, a big deal -- Ann Telnaes, an absolute legend, quitting WaPo due to censorship of a cartoon criticizing billionaires anntelnaes.substack.com/p/why-im-qui...

MapLibre GL JS v5.0.0 has been released and it comes with a nice new globe feature. Congrats everyone who worked on this! maplibre.org/maplibre-gl-...

Well done MapLibre-JP! Anyone wants to organize a local MapLibre meetup? We might be able to sponsor 🍕

MapLibre Android with Vulkan support is here! 📱 📢 Learn more from our news page: maplibre.org/news/2024-12... 🎉 Huge thanks to the team & everyone who tested! #MapLibre #AndroidDevelopment #Vulkan #OpenSource #OpenStreetMap

My #FOSS4G slides about @maplibre.org shown in Belem, Brazil. Thanks to all attending, and especially for the great questions! docs.google.com/presentation...

Rust/Clippy 1.83 now suggests `Option<&T>` instead of `&Option<T>` rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/...

Rust v1.83 is out - includes my aarch64_unknown_nto_qnx700 target (an old QNX 7.0 ... sigh, but useful for some legacy platform). Other fun things - new Clippy lints, .... In the next version, expect 3rd party format-like macro support. releases.rs/docs/1.83.0/

First post: An amazing Twitter to Bluesky migration tool to move all your followers - allthings.how/how-to-migra... More maps- and tech- related topics to follow. Happy to be here.
