Around November of last year I was afflicted with a crippling case of burnout. I want to talk about it.

Asynchronous code does not require the rest of your code to be asynchronous. I can’t say the same for blocking code.

To bootstrap Rust, no cost is too great.

I recently apperead on the “QnA With Friends” podcast, run by Irine.

async-task is one of the most complicated crates in the smol ecosystem. But, fundamentally, it’s just a future on the heap.

A common refrain is that threads can do everything that async/await can, but simpler. So why would anyone choose async/await?
