If you want to study during the break and like computer graphics or game programming, let's study together.
The raytracing book is fun, I definitely recommend it. I'd be very down to talk about graphics. I'm currently working on a rendering engine in Rust (https://github.com/JMS55/meshweaver). Need to get back to that soon.

A 2D Pixel Physics Simulator with Cellular Automata written in Rust
I've made a similar game: https://github.com/JMS55/sandbox, and it looks like we've had a lot of the same ideas :)

Open source projects that need help at beginner/intermediate level
If you're interested in game development, you may enjoy playing around with Sandbox. It's a game I created where you place sand, water, acid, fire, etc and watch them interact.

WebGPU computations performance in comparison to WebGL
> WebGPU is years away to become usable
As a counterpoint, I've been using WebGPU (through wgpu-rs) for the past 1.5 years. It's been a pleasure to use. For instance, here's the CPU-side code for a glow post-process shader using 4 render passes https://github.com/JMS55/sandbox/blob/master/src/glow_post_p....

The Similarities between an ECS and a rendergraph
I've considered implementing Sandbox using wgpu compute sharers (all the rendering is already done with wgpu). The reason I didn't is because I couldn't figure out how to make particles update in parallel - how to handle conflicts between two particles wanting to move into the same position, updating a particle that's supposed to be destroyed, etc. I'd love to get this working however. My last attempt was a the "multithread" branch where I tried to use rayon as a means of prototyping the game using parallel update logic.

Any interest in a Games From Scratch club?
Unrelated to a club, but you might enjoy looking at a game I built with Rust + WebGPU https://github.com/JMS55/sandbox.

Is there anyone looking for GSOC student for a Rust project ? (or just a contributor for a project ?)
Not a GSOC project, but my game Sandbox is open to contributions! https://github.com/JMS55/sandbox

Im moving a big array around too much
Overflowing the stack: Use a Vec, or Box<[T; N]> (boxed array). A boxed array is a heap allocated array, where the box part just points to some data on the heap, so it's cheap to move around. Both are pretty much equivalent, boxed array is maybe slightly more faster/correct. Note that if you use a boxed array, due to some missing compiler optimizations, you'll probably just get a stack overflow anyways, as the compiler will first store the array on the stack, and then copy it to the heap. This can be solved with some unsafe code, such as in https://github.com/JMS55/sandbox/blob/master/src/heap_array.rs.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing meshweaver and sandbox you can also consider the following projects:
rusterizer - Bare-bones software renderer written in Rust
sandspiel - Creative cellular automata browser game
