  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale

  • too-many-lists

    Learn Rust by writing Entirely Too Many linked lists

  • For anyone with some programming experience that want to learn rust https://rust-unofficial.github.io/too-many-lists/

  • nomicon

    The Dark Arts of Advanced and Unsafe Rust Programming

  • I'll add a (lone?) voice for diving in to the deep end straight away:

    https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/

    https://doc.rust-lang.org/nomicon/

    Documentation aimed at beginners often assumes a lack of prior programming experience, which is useful if you are (for example) a high-school student learning about pointers and abstraction but IMO not a good use of time for most people posting on Hacker News.

    The Rust reference manual is well-written and comprehensive for basic Rust, and the Rustonomicon has often answered my questions about more advanced topics (FFI, concurrency).

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
