EuroRust is over, now it's time for post-con depression 🙏

I'm not a people person and I felt like I was super awkward all the time. I want to thank everyone who tolerated me 😅

Making some last minute edits to my #eurorust slides. I clocked the talk at 27 minutes, might have to trim it down a bit to make room for my inevitable mistakes. It's been over 10 years since I've last given a presentation 😅 But there is so much I want to talk about!

really making a great case for how rewarding and fulfilling it can be to have your platform stick its neck out for queer folks

🍀 We've passed $13,000 for queer artists! For $60 (or $10+), less than one AAA game, you get hundreds of queer stories in games, TTRPGs, comics, zines, and books.

It's a lot to take in! Luckily, GPUs excel at parallel compute 😁

Come join my talk and learn about the current state of GPU compute in Rust, and how to get the most out of it in your Tokio apps!

#rust #rustlang
Async servers, GPU compute, local machine learning interference, and Rust, all in one talk? Ada’s pushing boundaries, and we’re here for it.
What if you could run a chatbot locally—on your GPU—with Rust?

No CUDA. No PyTorch. @adapossum.bsky.social is building it with WGPU, WGSL shaders, and Tokio. She’ll be talking about how it works at #EuroRust25.

Excited for my first ever Rust-related talk at #EuroRust25 this year! Yay!

I'll be talking about local LLM inference with Rust & WGPU, talking about the maturity of the ecosystem and highlighting the benefits over CUDA and pytorch.

I'm also looking to chat & connect! See you at EuroRust!
The full #EuroRust25 talks lineup is live! 🗓️

We’ll have 32 talks over two days on our main and side stage – plus a whole bunch of side events, stay tuned for more details on those!

👇 Drop a comment: which talk are you most excited about?

Transgender men's invisibility is violent erasure. Sam Nordquist, a 24-year-old transgender man, was tortured for over a month to death, and his slaughter is not being considered a hate crime. The media has gone to disgusting lengths to minimize Sam's transgender identity. Hardly anyone is outraged.

When a single billionaire can accumulate more money in 10 seconds than their employees make in one year, while workers struggle to meet the basic cost of rent and medicine, then yes, every billionaire really is a policy failure.

this is not the government of "we just think trans rights went a little too far". On day 1, this administration has indicated that their priority is to stamp us out of existence. This will be hard for some third parties to accept as truth but they've been plainly and openly saying it for years.

#Safety was the state of being protected from harm or other danger. Safety could also refer to the control of recognized hazards in order to achieve an acceptable level of risk.

Spent another day working on the fluid sim, now the simulation code is separated from the rendering code and I can save and load cached simulations from files!

Now that #bevy 0.15 is out I hope I can wrap up this project soon and publish the source code!

I'm going to be posting about Rust and maybe robotics for a while so I switched to a furry pfp

I've been working on a fluid simulation thingy in #bevy! Featuring ShaderStorageBuffers from v0.15.0-rc.3, this runs at ~15 fps on my machine, rendered to 240fps here for your viewing pleasure.
