It’s time for the second talk of the day. It’s about Rust meets cheap bare-metal RISC-V.
I had to skip a talk at the Rust devroom to get some lunch, but I made it back in time for the talk on Building performance-critical Python tools with Rust.
The gaming on BSD devroom was full, so I went to Janson to listen to the talk on How to keep open source open without leaving our communities open to threats.
I visited the Firefly Zero booth to try out the new hardware prototype. It looks and feels great. I also got to try my game Lampy in multiplayer, which was great. But it still got a bit sluggish with too many fireflies on screen. There’s more optimizations needed.
It turns out I lost my airpods 3 hours ago, but someone had handed them in to the lost & found! That’s much appreciated.
I’ve done some performance improvements to the game Lampy for the Firefly Zero handheld retro game console. It should hopefully be fast enough to run on the hardware prototype now so that it can be tested at Fosdem.
The lightning lightning talks went by so fast I forgot to post about most of them. The one I remember most was the wonderfully nerdy talk on getting Arch Linux to work on a mainframe. They weren’t anywhere near describing all the problems at the end of the allotted 256 seconds and had to be swept off the stage with a broom.
