Vitaly Bragilevsky

It's easy to see that it's going to be a great talk from the very first second: @maritvandijk.bsky.social and @piotrprz.bsky.social at #vdthess25 #voxxeddaysthessaloniki

Vitaly Bragilevsky on stage at Voxxed Days Thessaloniki. The slide behind him shows the talk title: "Luckily, you don't have to rewrite everything in Rust. But what if a touch of Rust is all you need?"

"Luckily, you don't have to rewrite everything in Rust". @bravit.bsky.social speaking at @vdthess.bsky.social #VoxxedDaysThessaloniki

Rust debugging, decoded. 🧩
Vitaly Bragilevsky took us through DWARF, LLDB, and beyond — making sense of what really happens at runtime.

Vitaly Reads: #4, October 2025 Technical Book Reviews: Systems Programming with Zig, Garrison Hinson-Hasty, Manning Publications (available in early access)

Good book alert! Systems Programming with Zig by Garrison Hinson-Hasty from Manning Publications: vitaly-reads.beehiiv.com/p/vitaly-rea...

the thing is, rust can have really fast compile times, but the pervasive use of macros and build scripts obscures that fact. impure proc macros and build scripts are the free parking of the rust ecosystem: benefiting the few at the cost of many

YouTube video by Kotlin by JetBrains Your Voice Belongs Here: Creating Compelling KotlinConf Proposals

I'm super proud of this webinar for underrepresented communities to CFP for KotlinConf. It has been a goal of mine to have this type of encouraging event since I started at JetBrains, and now you can watch the video 🥰

I'm excited to share what I've been working on with @erikjee.bsky.social: RustNL's #rustlang Maintainers Fund!

Many people and companies contributing to Rust, but there are fewer and fewer paid positions for general maintenance (reviews,cleanups,etc). We need to fix that.

In August, I was interviewed by JetBrains about programming and Rust, ranging from the borrow checker, to agentic coding, to hiring. And it's now on YouTube! It's also general enough that it should be interesting even to those not already knee deep in Rust 😅

At least we can put spaces around it to stand out.

I’ll never forgive AI for stigmatizing my beloved em-dash

It's been a month since #rustconf 2025, but the buzz is still strong! 🦀

I will wait for a new book! Your first one is amazing!

What an amazing generator!

I’m looking for an intern to work on Rust/RustRover content creation. If you are a university student in any EU country, the UK, Serbia, or Armenia, and you are passionate about Rust and sharing your knowledge, I’d love to hear from you. Please repost to help spread the word. Links below.

Casey Muratori pretty much sums up how I feel about LLMs for coding:

"The AI will always be useless for me. I physically can't get what I want from programming when AI is involved, because what it is doing is robbing me of the experience that I wanted to have and the knowledge that I wanted to get"

“I/O in Rust: the whole story” by @bravit.bsky.social takes you into devices, syscalls, and what really happens when your code says read(). Watch it again👇🏼

Rust debugging feels... mysterious?
@bravit.bsky.social breaks it down — from DWARF to RustRover — and shows how to make the most of modern Rust debuggers.

As a final preparation for the #PyO3 workshop tomorrow at #EuroPython, I have updated some exercises to ensure thread-safety. We are ready for #FreeThreaded #Python! Make sure you have the setup ready: github.com/Cheukting/py...

The only way to get an approximation of a correct bit of code from an AI is to ask the right questions (i.e., create the correct prompt). It seems to me that, as a profession, we have been struggling to ask the right questions for 80 years now. It's a hard problem.
