Where you able to produce a binary directly from the Rust build tools that you could submit to the app/play store?

---

Not quite, but I tried to get as close to that as was reasonably possible. Alas, things ended up a little convoluted.

For iOS, I have a nearly empty Xcode project with a build script that copies my cargo produced executable into the .app that Xcode generates (before Xcode signs it). The build script also uses lipo to merge the executables for each architecture I’m targeting (e.g. armv7 and aarch64 for non-simulator devices) into a single, universal binary.

On top of that, there are various iOS-y things that need to happen before my application’s main method is called. SDL2 provides the Objective-C code that does all of that. In a C or C++ game, SDL2 renames main to SDL_main, and then [inserts its own mai

CAA Adoption Notes

CA/B mandate

The CA/Browser Forum has voted to mandate that CAs must start checking CAA records to control certificate issuance (to verify what CAs are allowed to issue certificates for a domain) by September 8th, 2017.

Option 1: Command-line download extension as zip and extract

extension_id=jifpbeccnghkjeaalbbjmodiffmgedin   # change this ID
curl -L -o "$extension_id.zip" "https://clients2.google.com/service/update2/crx?response=redirect&os=mac&arch=x86-64&nacl_arch=x86-64&prod=chromecrx&prodchannel=stable&prodversion=44.0.2403.130&x=id%3D$extension_id%26uc" 
unzip -d "$extension_id-source" "$extension_id.zip"

Thx to crxviewer for the magic download URL.

Rich Hickey on becoming a better developer

Rich Hickey • 3 years ago

Sorry, I have to disagree with the entire premise here.

A wide variety of experiences might lead to well-roundedness, but not to greatness, nor even goodness. By constantly switching from one thing to another you are always reaching above your comfort zone, yes, but doing so by resetting your skill and knowledge level to zero.

Mastery comes from a combination of at least several of the following:

dutc

#!/usr/bin/env python3
from cffi import FFI
from textwrap import dedent
from os import getpid
from sys import version_info

if __name__ == '__main__':
    from sys import argv

    print('Host is: %s (%s)' % (version_info, getpid()))
