How to learn Deno as an alternative to Node.js
Deno's website has installation instructions for various operating systems, and its complete source code is available in its GitHub repo. I run macOS, so I can install Deno with HomeBrew:

Whats your general purpose scripting language of choice?
I've been watching Deno with high hopes but haven't used it in anger yet

Deno.js in Production. Key Takeaways.
Much of Node.js is written in C, yet it's still called Node.js.
Deno has some JavaScript/TypeScript in it. On GitHub https://github.com/denoland/deno is 22.8% JavaScript and 13.2% TypeScript, and https://github.com/denoland/deno_std is 68.2% JavaScript and 31.6% TypeScript.
So to me it's misleading about the name, but not about what Deno is written in.

A python interpreter written in Rust?
It is built in Rust & using V8, see the readme: https://github.com/denoland/deno

Help. Started web dev last year and don’t know if choice i made will affect me
Node (javascript) is fine and its successor, Deno (written in Rust by the author of Node) is very promising.
- things to regret about node js today

Boa JavaScript Engine v0.17 released
Yeah, pretty much. I'm not sure if we're gonna need to implement Static Shapes first but at least we need to make it possible to separate codeblocks from contexts for this to be feasible.

Official /r/rust "Who's Hiring" thread for job-seekers and job-offerers [Rust 1.67]
Hi, I'm looking for full time work and I'm interested in roles related to compilers, developer tools and systems. I'm a college senior(graduating on May, 2023) and have been working as an [IOS Developer](https://www.cyengagement.org/) for the past two years. At University, I took a compilers class where I learnt to use LLVM and MLIR to compile programs to various architectures. In Oct. 2022, I was selected to attend the [Programming Language Implementation Summer School](https://pliss.org/2022/) where I got to learn about compiler implementation and language tools from leading researchers around the world. Recently, I have been contributing to [Boa](https://github.com/boa-dev/boa), an embeddable Javascript engine written in Rust, by fixing issues and implementing features to improve conformance with ECMAScript specification. Aside from working on compilers, I have volunteered at conferences like ICFP'21 and PLDI'22 to familiarize myself with latest research in the field of compilers. You can find more information about me and my work in my [blog](https://veera.app) and Github [profile](https://github.com/veera-sivarajan). Thank you for your time and consideration.

Adding a JavaScript interpreter to your Rust project
I already use it in my project to run some parts of the youtube js player. I must say it was broken on one version of the player because of a generated regex inside (more on the issue), but definitely recommending.

Dune: A new JavaScript and TypeScript runtime built in Rust
I would be curious how much effort it would be to swap boa for V8 to have an all Rust runtime :) If it's not meant to be a production-ready project anyways.

Implementing a safe garbage collector in Rust
Although you probably could use it for something else, Boa[1] is a good demonstration of this (it uses the GC crate, but the same principle probably applies).
