  • The last time I wrote a web service in Rust, I used Axum - in part because it seemed to be the Rust community’s consensus that it was generally the best all-around option (and I didn’t have time to prototype with a bunch of other frameworks).

    Poem looks really interesting, though! I know the batteries-included approach doesn’t appeal to everyone, but it’s nice to be able to get so much off the shelf. Does anyone have experience with it yet they’d like to share?


  • Okay. How about, you, an Arabic-looking person, get pulled aside at the airport, EVERY time you travel. Your whole family does, and your children, by people carrying guns. While a stream of white people walks through unmolested.

    Every time, for your whole life, you and everyone else that merely resembles you in some way are singled out for your appearance - regardless of who you are, what you’ve done, the danger you actually pose to society. Just because somewhere, sometime, it might catch a bad person.

    And let’s not pretend that random strip searches don’t exist. If you travel a lot, the likelihood of one happening to you increases.

    Most of us these days wouldn’t think that kind of racist fascism was okay. Because world history has shown the danger of profiling by race for human rights. But, whatever, I’m not you I guess.
