Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Let's thank who have helped us in the Rust Community together!
Jubilee and Caleb Zulawski for their tireless work on the portable SIMD project. It will land, some day, and when it does it's going to be an amazing boon for the project.

Mutually aligned vectors?
The portable SIMD project implements an as_simd() function for slices. The basics are that you get 3 slices and the middle one is a SIMD slice. It allows for fast aligned loads of the data, which could matter if your algorithm is becoming memory bound; it is also a convenient and safe abstraction. In my case, I actually have 2 vectors (say, x and y). I can take them apart using as_simd() like so:

Zen4's AVX512 Teardown
This Rust issue [0] was the best short summary of what an SIMD Shuffle is I could find:
„A "shuffle", in SIMD terms, takes a SIMD vector (or possibly two vectors) and a pattern of source lane indexes (usually as an immediate), and then produces a new SIMD vector where the output is the source lane values in the pattern given.“

possibility of blas natively in Rust
Yet by default it generates code which is only compatible with Pentium4 or newer. In fact lots of serious issues relate to older CPUs and rustc developers plan is to declare them closed when they would be able to drop i686 support (all AMD CPUs which support SSE2 support x86-64, too while Intel situation is mess).

Best portable simd library for stable rust?
The standard API crate for portable simd is at https://github.com/rust-lang/portable-simd, but using this requires nightly, which I don't want to do. I'd like to use a crate for simd that works on both x86_64 and wasm in stable rust. wide looks fine for this purpose. Are there any potentially better choices?

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here! (28/2022)!
As for portable SIMD, there's relatively recent activity (last commit 20 days ago) on this repository: https://github.com/rust-lang/portable-simd

On Implementation of Distributed Protocols
Being able to control nondeterminism is particularly useful for testing and debugging. This allows creating reproducible test environments, as well as discrete-event simulation for faster-than-real-time simulation of time delays. For example, Cardano uses a simulation environment for the IO monad that closely follows core Haskell packages; Sui has a simulator based on madsim that provides an API-compatible replacement for the Tokio runtime and intercepts various POSIX API calls in order to enforce determinism. Both allow running the same code in production as in the simulator for testing.

API Gateway, Lambda, DynamoDB and Rust
The AWS SDK makes use of the async capabilities in the Tokio library. So when you see async in front of a fn that function is capable of executing asynchronously.

Petar is also looking at implementing concurrency the way it is in Go to have a fully functional virtual machine as it is in the spec. This would likely attract more external contributors to developing the VM. One advantage of Rust is that, with the concurrency model, there is already an extensive library called Tokio which he can use. Petar stresses that this isn’t easy, but he believes it’s achievable, at least as a research topic around determinism and concurrency.

Consuming an SQS Event with Lambda and Rust
Another thing to point out is that async is a thing in Rust. I'm not going to begin to dive into this paradigm in this article, but know it's handled by the awesome Tokio framework.

netcrab: a networking tool
So I started by using Tokio, a popular async runtime. The docs and samples helped me get a simple outbound TCP connection working. The Rust async book also had a lot of good explanations, both practical and digging into the details of what a runtime does.

Thread-per-Core
Regarding the quote:
> The Original Sin of Rust async programming is making it multi-threaded by default. If premature optimization is the root of all evil, this is the mother of all premature optimizations, and it curses all your code with the unholy Send + 'static, or worse yet Send + Sync + 'static, which just kills all the joy of actually writing Rust.
Agree about the melodramatic tone. I also don't think removing the Send + Sync really makes that big a difference. It's the 'static that bothers me the most. I want scoped concurrency. Something like <https://github.com/tokio-rs/tokio/issues/2596>.
Another thing I really hate about Rust async right now is the poor instrumentation. I'm having a production problem at work right now in which some tasks just get stuck. I wish I could do the equivalent of `gdb; thread apply all bt`. Looking forward to <https://github.com/tokio-rs/tokio/issues/5638> landing at least. It exists right now but is experimental and in my experience sometimes panics. I'm actually writing a PR today to at least use the experimental version on SIGTERM to see what's going on, on the theory that if it crashes oh well, we're shutting down anyway.
Neither of these complaints would be addressed by taking away work stealing. In fact, I could keep doing down my list, and taking away work stealing wouldn't really help with much of anything.

PHP-Tokio – Use any async Rust library from PHP
The PHP <-> Rust bindings are provided by https://github.com/Nicelocal/ext-php-rs/ (our fork of https://github.com/davidcole1340/ext-php-rs with a bunch of UX improvements :).
php-tokio's integrates the https://revolt.run event loop with the https://tokio.rs event loop; async functionality is provided by the two event loops, in combination with PHP fibers through revolt's suspension API (I could've directly used the PHP Fiber API to provide coroutine suspension, but it was a tad easier with revolt's suspension API (https://revolt.run/fibers), since it also handles the base case of suspension in the main fiber).
