"You can pre-order Mara here". 🤔

A post by @mara.bsky.social have been stuck in my head for about two months now so I just had to write out my thoughts on what the most central railway station in the Netherlands is: erk.dev/2026/06/21/t...

Someone made the mistake of getting me a UV laser engraving machine. ... (It was me.)

I can't believe it's already been two weeks.

Since RustWeek took place in a cinema, we ended the closing session properly with a cinematic credits roll. ✨ If you missed it or want to see it again: 2026.rustweek.org/credits/

Check out our latest blog post for an interview with Tiffany Pek Yuan, one of the maintainers of the Rust programming language: blog.rust-lang.org/inside-rust/... This is the first in a series of blog posts highlighting our amazing maintainers. 💛

I'm curious how many of the regular cinema guests we confused with our posters. (We put them here a day in advance.) :D

Just like last year, we replaced a whole wall of movie posters with our own punny movie posters at the cinema where RustWeek 2026 took place. I designed seven new posters for this year's event. See the thread below 👇

I've been to OSS events, Rust and non-Rust, and run by @rustnl.bsky.social and not run by them. By far, RustNL has always run the smoothest in my experience, and has been what *this* community is looking for. I think part of that is the population of attendees, and a lot of hard organizing work. ❤️

Excited to see more rustweek trip reports, but I continue to be deeply thankful for both: * The Rust community, both those working on the lang, and the grand majority of folks that use it + contribute * @mara.bsky.social, @rustnl.bsky.social, et. al who know how to run the best events out there

Finally got round to typing up my thoughts on my #Rustweek experience. I had such a good time, that it has made me re-evaluate a few things, but my notes are here at least, for all those who might be interested to read: sachy.dev/blog/rustwee...

I'm really excited that my assert_matches!() macro is finally stable. I can't believe it's been five years since I added it to (unstable) Rust. Time flies. github.com/rust-lang/ru...

RustWeek is *now* live: 2026.rustweek.org/live/tuesday/

Today is the 11th birthday of Rust 1.0! 🥳 🎂 🦀

Do you or does your employer have too much money? RustWeek can help! You can now use discount code "rosebud;!;!;!;!;!" to increase the RustWeek ticket price to 10,000 euro. Only a few days left! event.onliveevent.nl/rustweek-2026

For those of you watching RustWeek from home: our schedule now supports switching timezones between the conference timezone and your own timezone! 🕣 It'll also use 12-hour or 24-hour time depending on your locale settings. ✨ 2026.rustweek.org/schedule/tue... See you next week! 💛

The very first RustWeek 2026 badge!

It's finally time to announce the opening talk of the RustWeek 2026 main track! 2026.rustweek.org/talks/taylor/ Don't forget to buy your tickets, before they run out!

Hosting a conference in a cinema is genius.

The RustWeek conference venue is right next to Utrecht Central Station, the biggest and most central train station of the Netherlands, just 30 minutes from one of the most connected airports of Europe, and very easy to reach by international train! 🚄

I'm *very* excited to report that we got initial funding and have hired our first Rust maintainers! RustNL's Rust Maintainers Team starts out with two full time maintainers, one intern, and five part-time maintainers, now stably employed to continue their work on Rust! 🎉 rustnl.org/maintainers/

employment status update: i am! starting 1-st of may i'll be working full time as a rust maintainer in @rustnl.bsky.social's maintainers team. a dream come true :) i'll be continuing work on maintaining the rust compiler & related projects, but now full time & paid ^^'

The "average Rustacean causes 100 segfaults a year" factoid is actually just a statistical error. The average Rustacean causes zero segfaults per year. Segfault Nia, who lives in cave & causes over 700 million segfaults each day, is an outlier and should not have been counted.

Next to three tracks in big cinema rooms, we will also have an amazing hallway track. We rented out the entire 1000-person capacity restaurant attached to the cinema! This space is available all day during the conference, has many six-person booths with power sockets, and even a nice outdoor space.

Did you know that RustWeek 2026 is held in one of the largest cinema's of the Netherlands? This means: extremely comfortable seats, great air conditioning, perfect audio, and a very big screen: over 280m², the 2nd largest in the country! ✨ Don't forget to buy your tickets! 2026.rustweek.org

The schedule including the talk details for RustWeek 2026 is now published! 2026.rustweek.org/schedule/tue... 2026.rustweek.org/schedule/wed... Which talks are you most excited about? :D Don't forget to buy your ticket!

I made another 120 Rust buttons for you all this morning. If you want one, come find me at #RustNationUK on Thursday! I have bright pink hair now, so should be easy to find.

I am once again sitting in a very fast train to London for #RustNationUK. See you all there!

Catch me on the main stage at RustWeek for the first time! I’ll be speaking on programming languages as a community of belonging, how our perception of what being a programmer has changed over time, and what that means for our communities in the future

After carefully reading and ranking a record number of 185 submissions from 148 speakers, we finally finished the talk selection for RustWeek 2026! I'm *really* excited about the lineup! Check it out here: 2026.rustweek.org/blog/2026-02... Don't forget to buy your ticket! See you in Utrecht!

** RustWeek Speakers Announced! ** Check out the selected speakers and talks here: 2026.rustweek.org/blog/2026-02... Thanks to everyone who submitted to our CFP! #rust #rustweek2026

🦀 I've improved the implementation behind all the string formatting macros in Rust: println, panic, format, write, log::info, etc. (Everything using format_args!().) They will compile a bit faster, use a bit less memory while compiling, result in smaller binaries, and produce more efficient code! 🎉

Come say hi at #fosdem this weekend! bsky.app/profile/mara...

Pink!

If you want a Rust button and a discount code for RustWeek, come find me at FOSDEM this weekend! I now have bright pink hair, so should be easy to find :) #rustlang #rustweek #fosdem

Only seven hours left to submit your talk proposal for RustWeek 2026!

Girls just wanna have fun ✨

Shoutout to @mara.bsky.social for the Rust Atomics Book. It has prepared me for This Precise Moment.

#rustlang hot take: We should rename .unwrap() to .or_panic(). (And .expect() to .or_panic_with().) "Unwrap" is a terrible name for the panicking function, especially since we also have things like .unwrap_or() and .unwrap_or_default() which never panic.

Super excited to see you all again at RustWeek next year! ✨
