Allusion VS rust

Allusion? https://github.com/allusion-app/Allusion

You can only block a web worker thread; blocking in the main thread is not allowed by browser vendors. If you want to synchronize two web workers, you can use the std primitives like Mutex and compile with atomics. If you want to synchronize the main thread and a web worker, you need to build this yourself. I have implemented this in one of my code bases (https://github.com/allusion-app/Allusion/blob/master/wasm/masonry/src/sync.rs) but the code is GPL licensed. Note this particular code only works in browsers that support Atomics.waitAsync. An alternative is to wrap a worker.onmessage callback in a Promise and await that. Also statics are used because I don't want the overhead of calling receive from JavaScript back to Rust in the web worker, not that they are required.

One idea that could work out is to move state management to a web worker and state changes are just messages between the main thread and web worker (JS example with Redux + React + Comlink. The Redux and Comlink would be reimplemented in Rust (requires atomics, WASM intrinsics and however Redux works). However, using atomics is not so nice. Atomic.waitAsync has so far been only stabilized in Chrome last time I used it and the Rust std library has no equivalent, so you still have to call that from Rust. I've implemented something similar to a channel/spinlock but with statics (github source).

The final implementation: Masonry algorithm in Rust, Webworker, Masonry renderer which makes use of the Virtualized renderer

If you haven't dipped your touch-typing fingers into Rust yet, you really owe it to yourself. Rust is a modern programming language with features that make it suitable not only for systems programming -- its original purpose, but just about any other environment, too; there are frameworks that let your build web services, web applications including user interfaces, software for embedded devices, machine learning solutions, and of course, command-line tools. Since a custom GitHub Action is essentially a command-line tool that interacts with the system through files and environment variables, Rust is perfectly suited for that as well.

Here's an example of someone citing a disagreement between CRT and shell32:

This in addition to the Rust CVE mentioned elsewhere in the thread which was rooted in this issue:

Here are some quick programs to test contrasting approaches. I don't have examples of inputs where they parse differently on hand right now, but I know they exist. This was also a problem that was frequently discussed internally when I worked at MSFT.

    #include 

> instead of choosing a certain numbered version of the random library (if I remember correctly) I let cargo download the latest version which had a completely different API.

Yeah, they didn't follow the instructions and got burned. I still think that multiple things went wrong simultaneously for that experience. I wonder if more prevalent uses of `#[doc(alias = "name")]` being leveraged by https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120730 (which now that I check only accounts for methods and not functions, I should get on that!) so that when changing APIs around people at least get a slightly better experience.

Almost fixed the compiler: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/123325

Rust: A secure, efficient, and modern programming language (omitting ten thousand words). You can simply follow the installation instructions provided on the official website.

Recently did something similar in Rust but for generating SVGs. We've adopted it for snapshot testing of cargo and rustc's output. Don't have a good PR handy for showing Github's rendering of changes in the SVG (text, side-by-side, swiping) but https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/121877/files has newly added SVGs.

To see what is supported, see the screenshot in the docs: https://docs.rs/anstyle-svg/latest/anstyle_svg/

We strongly believe in Rust as a powerful language for building production-grade software, especially for systems like ours that run alongside Kubernetes.

The above Assert<{N % 2 == 1}> requires #![feature(generic_const_exprs)] and the nightly toolchain. See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/76560 for more info.
