On: Dave Herman’s contributions to Rust

[jxf]

I confess I'm pretty ignorant about the history and origins of Rust, and it's not something I tend to investigate deeply for a lot of my tools.

But I derive a great deal of my current livelihood from Rust and helping firms use it well, so thank you, Dave.

If nothing else, maybe I'll be looking more closely at my next tools, and hoping they have their own Daves quietly advocating for their success.

Have you ever helped a firm use rust on airgapped or nexus ptoxies developer networks? The nexus module appears abandoned, and the documentation on running an offline crates.io mirror is very lacking.

This seems like a non-sequitor and off topic. There are plenty of better places to give this feedback.

I think maybe my question was taken differently than I meant it. I was legitimately asking if the gp had/could help with such a task.

It’s a very niche question. You’re better served asking in Rust support channels like the discord or the subreddit.
