tfw you get asked "why Rust in Automotive" and you have the recorded talk ready to go

we had an excellent workshop today between Eclipse uProtocol and Eclipse iceoryx2 (both largely in Rust bee-tee-dubs)
some main areas of collaboration we found:
- inter-node / gateway concepts
- service-level definition and evolution
- code generation + IDLs
- corresponding demonstrators

Markus Hosch of BMW gave an excellent overview of the how/why of Eclipse S-CORE Rust bindings to the LoLa shared-memory, zero-copy C++ library
in 2 weeks i'll talk Rust + security
meeting notes and how to join follow if you're into Rust + Automotive

@rcs.bsky.social has given me feedback that my @rustnationuk.bsky.social talk is good for managers ;-;
be aware that while it goes into lots of details, it's less "here's Rust code" and is more like "here's why Rust is a good fit for safety-critical" & "here are the gaps which remain"

Does your company produce tooling in the safety-critical space? Can it be used with Rust?
We'd love to hear from you!
Today we had a representative from AbsInt describe how tooling works on Rust software. It operates at the binary level. (beep boop)
More on how to get involved below

getting involved with the Rust Vision doc was superb
nice chance to talk with people from different safety-critical backgrounds (aerospace, automotive, medical devices, mobile robotics)

spent time over the break reflecting on my career, so then got interested in writing a thing
tagline: "curiosity: why even tho others have said our shared managers were bad at times, why i was always able to find some way to connect and still get things done"

bless the school IT staff running these things. i'm sure it's on a shoe string budget. this got a chuckle out of me
my 88-student-graduating-class-having tiny high school had the computer programming teacher double up as district-wide IT admin ;D

my reaction when people tell me that the safety-critical coding guidelines seem to be somewhat documenting already existing practice (which is not documented)

feels like using agentic ai stuff is about staying in control and not letting it run wild
let it run for a bit, think about what it's doing, as a human, then suggest it to try a, b, c or refactor x, y, z
goes out of control otherwise

how it started vs how it's going lmao
been playing checkers with the 5 y/o over the break
we decided to modify the rules to allow unlimited king-ing
it does not change its ability, but it sure does make her laugh each time she can declare "KING ME!!!"

trying out opencode backed by claude opus 4.5
good chance to test run new things over the holidays :D
i'd been a webchat guy only up till now with LLMs, so it's a bit of a change, but --
overall enjoying the experience, with opencode opened inside of neovim's terminal. navigability is nice
