Description

We are excited to welcome you to Rust meetup #52 sponsored by Trifork and OpenZeppelin!

As usual RSVPs open exactly 1 week before the event, ie. Septemer 24th at 18:00-ish.

The plan looks as follows:

18:05–18:15: Welcome with quick words from Trifork and OpenZeppelin.
18:15–19:00: "Building a Rust-based OS Kernel with Memory Safety First" by Hongliang Tian (Ant Group, China)
19:00–19:45: Break and food sponsored by OpenZeppelin
19:50–20:35: "Rust dev and build environments on Nix/NixOS" by Simon Shine
20:35–20:45: Raffle 🎲
20:45–: Hangout and talk

The Asterinas project is a Linux-compatible operating system (OS) built in Rust, with memory safety as its top priority. Asterinas introduces a novel architecture called the framekernel, designed to combine the speed of monolithic kernels with the security of microkernels.

Asterinas implements over 170 Linux system calls and common Virtio drivers, written in more than 40K lines of pure safe Rust. This is made possible by an underlying OS framework—composed of less than 20K lines of both safe and unsafe Rust—which forms the trusted computing base (TCB) for memory safety. Notably, the relative size of Asterinas' TCB is significantly smaller than that of any other Rust-based OSes, offering a more compact and secure foundation.

In this talk, you will explore:
- The inherent challenges of avoiding unsafe Rust in kernel development.
- How Asterinas compares to other projects like Rust for Linux and other Rust-based OSes.
- How Asterinas' OS framework is designed and implemented to achieve expressiveness, minimalism, soundness, and efficiency.

We look forward to seeing you all! 🦀

The goal is, at the end of the evening, to have populated one of our Discord channels with bots that talk smack. Exactly what is up to you. It could be a weather bot, a text-based adventure, an IRC bridge, an insult generator, or an attempt to beat the Turing test using LLMs.

Come with your ideas, steal an idea from someone, or work together with others. You are free to show up and do your own thing entirely unrelated to Discord.

#[derive(Schedule)]
17:00 - 17:30: Discord bot API presentation, brainstorm ideas.
17:30 - 18:30: We hack on bots.
18:30 - 19:00: We look for food.

Tonight's theme is: beginner-friendly

Come alone, bring your friend who wants to learn Rust, or show up as usual and hack on something esoteric. There will be some people you can ask your Rust-related questions.

If you're completely new to Rust, we recommend you try and install Rustlings ahead of time; but if you fail or don't find the time, just show up and we'll have a look together:

RSVP opens Thursday 29th at 17:00.

We are excited to invite you to:

Rust Hack Night #3: Embedded on Espressif's ESP32C3

Time: Thursday March 7, 2024 at 17:00 to 22:00
Location: Veo Technologies, Rovsingsgade 68, 2100 Copenhagen

This night we code bare-metal Rust on Espressif's ESP32C3 microcontroller. We will have a workshop-style format where people can do their own thing, or ask for help. We encourage participants to be familiar with Rust or embedded, but not necessarily both.

Our generous sponsors for this hack night are:

  • Espressif Systems, makers of the ESP32, have sponsored 25 dev kits that will be raffled to participants for use during the workshop and take home after.
  • Veo Technologies, makers of live-streaming cameras for sports events, and employers of embedded software developers in Copenhagen, have offered their offices as venue, and will be sponsoring nutrients during the hack night.

We would like to gather the cool projects made on a shared repository so that others around the world will find it easier to work with ESP32. So if you know what pet project you want to work on, and intend for it to be open source, then do think about committing your work to git for later sharing.

## Program

17:00 - 17:10: Finding a seat
17:10 - 17:30: Welcome, sponsor intro
17:20 - 21:30: std::iter::from_fn(hack);
21:30 - 21:55: Show and tell, evaluate
21:55 - 22:00: core::mem::drop(presence);

Nutrients will be streamed during the event with a peak dosage at around 18:00.

## Seats and raffle

Since Espressif Systems give away free hardware to participants, we care to minimize no-shows. For that reason, we kindly ask that you revisit your RSVP status if you cannot attend.

- There are 50 raffle seats. This means if you get a seat, you get to share one dev kit with someone else, and you get to enter the raffle to bring it home.
- BYOB (Bring Your Own Board): If you are the lucky owner of an ESP32 board, and you're already bootstrapped to participate without raffling, you can write to us (simon@simonshine.dk) and we can fit you in.

Since the Veo Technologies venue is very big, we don't expect to reach the fire regulation limit, so we provide another option for participating:

- You just want to say hi: Feel free to come by and see what's going on. All you have to do here is write a comment on the invitation to say you're thinking of coming. This ticket does not involve active coding or food.

We are excited to welcome you to Rust Hack Night #2 at DIKU.

Tonight we're hacking compilers, parsers, interpreters.

Work on your pet DSL, build a parser for something, or abuse the `syn` crate.

For this hack night we'd like to level up: Think about 1-3 crates you think anyone building a compiler in Rust should know about. In the beginning of the evening we collect what people brought and ask participants to pitch each of the most popular choices and why this crate is so great they're using it tonight.

17:00 - 17:10: begin();
17:10 - 17:20: promote_crates();
17:20 - 21:30: hack();
21:30 - 21:55: show_and_tell();
21:55 - 22:00: end();

This hack night assumes familiarity with Rust and compilers, but not necessarily compilers made in Rust.

Hacknight #1 on Meetup.com
Description

There is no regular Rust meetup with talks during this December.

So we are excited to welcome you to Rust Hacknight #1 at DIKU!

This night we're hacking CLIs and TUIs. Also, make your own plush Ferris.

Come and build that terminal program you have been thinking of.

Keywords: clap, ratatui, cursive, crossterm, r3bl_tuify

For those of you who have looked with envy at Vanja's plush Ferris: orange cloth, scissors and needles will be provided for those who want to try and make one. We can't promise Vanja's mom will be available for guidance.

The plan looks as follows:
16:00 - 16:10: begin();
16:10 - 20:40: hack();
20:40 - 20:55: show_and_tell();
20:55 - 21:00: end();

This hacknight is beginner friendly: There will be people who can answer questions if you get stuck on the intricacies of Clap macros. There will be examples you can steal from. We do expect that you have the Rust toolchain installed on your computer, and perhaps have tried Hello World or Rustlings.

We have not requested food sponsorship, but Prosa will generously provide gløgg (with and without alcohol), æbleskiver and Christmas cookies.

Lastly, as we have limited seats we kindly remind you to cancel your RSVP a day before if you can't make it so that others may attend.

We are excited to welcome you to the Rust coding night #0 hosted by Adapt Agency!

Couldn't make the Rust meetup because all the seats were taken? As a supplement to the wildly popular monthly Copenhagen Rust meetups, coding night means less chat, more code. Each coding night has a theme under which people are free to explore. You can show up with an existing project within the theme, or you can show up barehanded and start from scratch.

This time we're looking at: Leptos, a reactive wasm web-framework that lets you write Rust in the browser. You can get a head start with Leptos: https://leptos.dev/

Towards the end of the coding night we have allocated a short amount of time for show-and-tell in case you have something you want to show off. Others are free to continue their thing simultaneously, this is just inspirational.

The plan looks as follows:

18:00 - 18:10: begin();

18:10 - 20:45: hack();

20:30 - 20:45: show_and_tell();

20:45 - 20:55: end();

We are not able to provide food and drinks for this event, so make sure to bring what you need to stay energized for the night. And apart from your dinner box, remember also to bring your own computing devices.

Lastly, as we have limited seats we kindly remind you to cancel your RSVP a day before if you can't make it so that others may attend.

At Seasoned.Software we build a CI platform that uses fuzz testing to improve the quality of your software projects. We love Rust and we use it for most of our platform, and we support Rust projects as first class citizens. We will give a brief presentation on how Rust helped us build our platform, which problems we have encountered so far, and how we solved them. Afterwards we will explain why you should fuzz test your own projects and show how to set up fuzz testing for your own Rust projects.
