RustShip: a new Rust podcast

I’m excited to announce that I started RustShip: a new podcast where I interview other Rust developers to learn from their experiences.

RustShip #1 — Creating successful open-source projects

In the first episode, I interviewed? Orhun Parmaks?z , Arch Linux package maintainer and author of tens of open-source projects used and loved by thousands of people, including myself.

Orhun shared what it’s like maintaining Rust code and his advice on increasing the adoption of our open-source projects.

You can find the full episode on?YouTube?or your favorite?podcast client.

If you don’t have time to listen to the full episode, here are some clips:

• Creativity and Open Source?(25 minutes)
• Open Source sustainability and burnout?(37 minutes)
• Packaging Rust binaries for Linux distributions?(4 minutes)
• Dogfooding: use your own tools?(1 minute)

What’s next?

I will record the next episode live on?YouTube?on August 23, 2023. I will interview?Predrag Gruevski?about?Trustfall?and?Cargo-semver-checks, two Rust projects he created:

• Trustfall is a query engine for any combination of data sources, allowing to query files and APIs as if they were databases.
• Cargo-semver-checks is a cargo plugin that scans Rust crates looking for semver violations. It uses Trustfall and Rustdoc to do its job.

Join the live streaming to ask Predrag questions and advice!

I plan to do at least one episode every month. Follow me on?YouTube,?Twitter,?LinkedIn?and?Mastodon?to stay updated with the latest news and join the next live episodes: I’m always happy to answer questions from the chat during the live stream.
