Looks like it’ll be a good day for a heart attack #eurorust25

On my way to Paris for #eurorust25. I’m not convinced yet things will indeed go as this screen suggest but I’ll make it to Paris in time for workshops and setup tomorrow morning

#emberjs is actually quite modern, just many teams are stuck on really old versions.

🙌 It’s @academiedesrenards.bsky.social and @chris.manson.ie on stage at #emberfest talking about @mainmatter.com #emberjs initiative. We achieved quite a lot, both pushing Ember forward as well as helping initiative members keeping their codebases modern and healthy. Great job Marine and Chris!

. @nickschot.bsky.social is on stage at @emberfest.eu talking about integrating #emberjs with other frameworks like #react or #svelte. We’ve worked with a number of clients on the topic at @mainmatter.com in the past few years

Can't wait for tapbots.com/phoenix/ to release and this platform finally becoming usable (for me – apparently others deal with it just fine, I just have no idea how)

#Python on the surface and #rustlang under the hood for speed and stability is a great combination and becoming increasingly popular: "Rust becomes Python's performance co-pilot" – thenewstack.io/rust-pythons...

Rust: Python's New Performance Engine

Rust usage for Python extensions surged 22% in one year as developers choose memory safety and C-level performance over traditional approaches.

#eurorust has always sold out since the first year and we have no intention to break the streak – get your ticket while they last (and before we switch to late bird pricing on Sep 1st or hold off until after to help us keep a balanced budget 💸)

EuroRust @eurorust.eu · Aug 20

EuroRust isn’t just talks all day, it’s a gathering of Rustaceans and Rustaceans-to-be. Four days in total—in Paris—full of everything Rust! Also, please note that on September 1 we’re switching to late-bird ticket pricing, so make sure to get yours before that! 🦀

This year, we'll have a conference after the conference (and a whole lot of other side events) 🎉

EuroRust @eurorust.eu · Aug 19

Right after the main conference, join us at Stockly HQ in Paris for a full day of open hacking, sharing challenges, and building with the Rust community. Thanks to our friends at Stockly for hosting 🤗
