A language empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.

from rust-lang.org

Rust by itself is a great language, but what really makes it shine are its many great crates. The ecosystem around rust is one of the best there is, and its documentation is practically unrivalled. So lets look at some of those crates!

actix-web

Actix-web is an amazing web server framework for rust. It's modular, easy to use, intuitive and fast. It's also what lemmy is built on! So when you use this very site, you are using something build with actix!

Bevy

Bevy is a code first game engine for rust, based on the ECS paradigm. It's incredibly refreshing and different from most other engines. It is also unbelievably modular, in fact, just about every part of the engine cam be removed or added as you please! If you are every looking for something simple to play around, try bevy!

Tokio

The backbone of most asynchronous rust. It provides everything needed to build reliable, fast web applications!

Serde

Serde is the go-to library for serialization and deserialisation in rust. Its derive macros make it a breeze to use, and there are countless crates supporting various formats with Serde!

SQLx

SQLx is an amazingly simple sql handling crate. It is both feature rich and yet simple, and just a joy to use!

Reqwest

A neat little crate for sending http(s) requests! It's also used in Lemmy, and just about anywhere else where someone needs to do get some thing from an http(s) endpoint!

And this is far from all! Rust is a lovely language, with an even more amazing ecosystem!

Have an amazing week, everyone!

    I dunno where you live but you should be able to get your birth certificate amended to female. You shouldn't need an orchi for that. I changed mine (Canada) just at a registry and a month and a half later they sent me a reminder to have my cervix examined lmao. I kept the letter, but good luck to any doctor that tries I do not have one

    Some of those concerns are valid, it is something to figure out pre surgery if you want zero depth or if you want to have penetration. Dilating can be onerous and annoying, especially the first few months after surgery. You shouldn't be having sex for the first while so yes it will literally impact your sex life with her. It's not your partners body and I don't think she's gonna get it which is going to be frustrating. You seem to very eagerly want a vagina, this is something you can get and it seems to cause you some level of distress without one. Your partner doesn't have to live with the same dysphoria you do. I can't say it won't change anything between you and her but if she's mostly been supportive I think she'll continue to be even if she's anxious about it or your identity as a woman is becoming more real

    I had a tracheal shave and I found it quite helpful for myself and for passing! Plenty of cis girls have a more prominent tracheal bump (I've met some). If it doesn't cause you dysphoria, then tell your family to fuck off and move on in life without it. For me, it also didn't like remove my Adam's apple, it just very very reduced it. Didn't affect my voice or anything else.

      consulting transhub for this since they've been pretty reliable for all things Aus-specific

      In NSW, you are currently only able to update the legal gender marker on your birth certificate if you have undergone a “sex affirmation procedure”.

      This is defined in section 32A, of the BDM Registrations Act 1995 as a surgical procedure involving the alteration of a person’s reproductive organs carried out: a. for the purpose of assisting a person to be considered to be a member of the opposite sex; or b. to correct or eliminate ambiguities relating to the sex of the person.

      This can typically include GRS or an orchiectomy. Breast implants, top surgery and facial surgery are not counted under this definition.

      it is what it is but i reserve the right to be pissed catgirl-disgust

      Your partner doesn't have to live with the same dysphoria you do. I can't say it won't change anything between you and her but if she's mostly been supportive I think she'll continue to be even if she's anxious about it or your identity as a woman is becoming more real

      honestly i think there's been many such cases of this since i transitioned and every time it actually came down to it, she has been supportive. so yeah, i'm hoping it's just looming anxieties that will eventually be resolved but it weighs on my mind

      For me, it also didn't like remove my Adam's apple, it just very very reduced it. Didn't affect my voice or anything else.

      that's good to hear! my main concern if i did decide to go through with it was damage to my voice so thanks for the reassurance. i feel pretty indifferent to the surgery - i'm leaning more into it but i don't want to do it just to make some cis people more comfortable iykwim
