I've been absent from the lifestream for a bit. I've been busy implementing!

hyperbola was down for 26 hours because the CA cert bundle on its backing RDS instance was not rotated before the 2015 bundle expired #fail #outage #aws

Pushing errors to the edge and forcing callers to handle them makes for better code #artichoke https://github.com/artichoke/artichoke/pull/434

Nothing like a little build breakage to start the weekend https://github.com/artichoke/artichoke/pull/417 #artichoke #fail

Lol following up on https://hyperbo.la/lifestream/743/ ... https://github.com/artichoke/artichoke/pull/348 disabled most converters to improve compilation times and https://github.com/artichoke/artichoke/pull/397 added them back behind a feature

#artichoke RubyConf recording here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMni48MBqFw

I missed a couple of months posting! I was working on my RubyConf talk about #artichoke. slides here: https://artichoke.github.io/rubyconf/2019/

Just explicitly shut down the frklft.tires site by doing a terraform destroy. Sad, but that code didn't need to live forever.

I added a feature to rust-bindgen to make a dependency optional to make the build lighter #github #patch https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-bindgen/pull/1615

Reported a critical bug in rustfmt #fail #github #patch https://github.com/rust-lang/rustfmt/issues/3770

Also added many more converter implementations with macros. There are 988 TryConvert implementations. #win #fail #artichoke

Led to reporting this #mruby bug: https://github.com/mruby/mruby/issues/4684 #github #fail although I was able to work around it #artichoke

This change added new functionality: Converting to and from byte and string slices #win #artichoke

The converters are central to #artichoke. Changing this core abstraction was painful: 84 files changed, 2000 lines added, 2800 lines removed. #fail #git

The converters allow the runtime to convert between Rust and Ruby types. They are the glue that the entire Ruby Core and Ruby Standard Library implementation is built upon. #artichoke

I'm separating the core of #artichoke from the #mruby backend specific glue. This step involved reimplementing the converters with the new traits in core.

This was a nasty PR https://github.com/artichoke/artichoke/pull/242 #artichoke #fail

Some folks have been contributing #Ruby and #Rust code to #artichoke! #win #github

I added a macro to oniguruma to enable it to build on clang for #wasm targets #patch #github #artichoke https://github.com/kkos/oniguruma/pull/150

I reported an undocumented panic in #rust that was fixed today #patch #win https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/63456
