What's everyone working on this week (26/2021)?
Hey, cool! From my brief look at your link, I didn't catch how you're storing your triangulations, since only data structures for points and lines and such are mentioned. Do you have a mesh data structure? I'm thinking of something like a half-edge based representation, as found in GEL. That would be really cool to have in Rust.

Sorry... what diskette?
I know all that shit because I'm the author of Rust's WinSafe library, which is a safer Rust layer over native Win32, so I had to deal with a lot of shit like this.

What is Rust's potential in game development?
Externally, you can write a lot of native Windows stuff in Rust already. Personally, I'm having a lot of fun with WinSafe.

What are the scenarios where "Rewrite it in Rust" didn't meet your expectations or couldn't be successfully implemented?
If you had such problems (which I also had in the past), I'm really interested in you opinion about WinSafe, and if it could help you solving them.

Is there a more "traditional" desktop front end I can use with Tauri?
If you're after a native Windows application, WinSafe may suit your needs.

GitHub - ryanmcgrath/cacao: Rust bindings for AppKit (macOS) and UIKit (iOS/tvOS). Experimental, but working!
As the author of WinSafe, I can say it's tedious sometimes, but it's often very challenging, because you have to translate crazy unsafe behaviors into Rust's ownership model. It's surely hard, but also very rewarding at the end.

Microsoft is rewriting core Windows libraries in Rust
As the author of the WinSafe lib, I wholeheartedly agree.

A Proposal for Safe Window Handles
I don't know how rare this is (or how rare it should be), but this issue warned me about this potential problem, and I had to make a huge refactoring to treat the possibility. I had to rethink many aspects of all handle implementations. It was hard work, but in the end it was worth it.

Why is building a UI in Rust so hard?
WinSafe says hello.

Use ManuallyDrop in Rust to control drop order of structure fields
WinSafe, for example (which attemps to be a safe layer over the Windows API), provides lots of RAII automations. A fine example is the BeginPaint function:
