I mean, all customers got a mid-long email, this does not sound like anyone buries anything.

Unless something has drastically changed, PyCon covers itself and earns the PSF quite some money on top. Here are numbers from 2020: https://thefortunate.blog/diversification-is-th…

It is and there's the variant where you go bottoms first which is called... "Arschbombe" - "Ass-Bomb".

There's an ongoing discussion about potential adoption into upstream, though. The thing here is: it would be harmful if we, Ferrous Systems, claimed or even be confused with a more…

Yes, and this does indeed happen. Turns out publishing such a thing makes people get in touch.

He, thanks! Weird how that happened though, as the post _was_ edited by an English speaking person living in Germany :).

We're being asked about these regularly, but e.g. bluetooth certification is still too prohibitive to just do without a customer. However, I'm also frustrated with "everything is c…

That matches our experience. They were super pragmatic. Also, their feedback was tough, but always technically grounded and from the perspective of "is the user always well informe…

Yes, we built bindings for LynxOS 178 a while ago and demonstrated Rust on QNX at embedded world. https://www.lynx.com/press-releases/rust-compiler-support https://ferrous-systems.…

It's certainly an unusual pricing style, but people grok it and appreciate it. Also, note that this is for the "quality managed" version - additional support and documents that I s…

(disclaimer: also a co-founder of Ferrous Systems) The ISO 26262 is certainly an effective standard. The boxes to tick are of the kind "do you have your requirements written down?"…

Yep, it's only the target files for lynxos178.

We got hit by this: https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/incidents/t53r6tfsg1sj Cloudflare served private preview URLs through the deployed website. Honestly, doing ops for over 10 yea…

This is a German works council, which is the most common outcome of a unionization effort: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Works_council#Germany Its creation can be forced by a vote …

I've heard someone once say "if Rust is a criticism of C++, it comes from a position of respect" and that was definitely true in the early days of the programming language. Interes…

Sonic Pi is essentially a frontend to Supercollider: https://github.com/sonic-pi-net/sonic-pi/blob/dev/SYNTH_DESI...

Feel free to reach out, it's a topic of interest to us. A good place to discuss is for example the AeroRust Discord or just send me an email. https://github.com/AeroRust/Welcome

Thanks :).

First question: yes. It was hard to talk about the current state of Ferrocene with all the things ongoing last year. Now that I have more bandwidth and we found a development beat,…

DO-178C has writing and requirements around dynamic memory management. (DO-332 / ED-217, OO.D.1.6) Rust also can also model other things through ownership, like passing a device ha…

Rust makes quite a few things more rigorous (e.g. pairing allocations with deallocations and reference validity). It basically fulfills the job of a static analyzer baked into the …

There's rubble. https://github.com/jonas-schievink/rubble We've been approached by multiple parties to finish it and we are up to it, but the final effort, particularly certificati…

Let's first get rustc qualified, but speaking on a high level, I believe Ada/Rust FFI has potential to make `unsafe`... safer. If someone wants to play around with this in the open…
