Hi rustaceans! What are you working on this week? Did you discover something new, you want to share?
I’m working on a presentation software that uses plain text to make neat looking presentations with relatively little effort. I’m in a Post-AP Computer Science class, and I just finished an assignment using it https://git.nations.lol/grezi/#Hashing Sets Maps.slideshow
Here is where the source code is: https://github.com/StratusFearMe21/grezi-next
(Documentation for how to actually use it is in the GitHub wiki page)
I’ve been working on a scraper to get congress stock trades. I’m thinking of potentially just serving it as an API. If theres an API that someone else knows about I’m all ears.
Writing an axum REST API that interacts with a Postgres DB via sqlx.
Nothing fancy, really :D
I am learning more about observability with OpenTelemetry and in Kubernetes clusters in particular. Distributing tracing with connected traces between multiple applications seems like a useful concept for applications made from several services. Apparently there are even some technologies allowing traceparent/tracestate propagation via sqlcommenter to the database server though it seems those do not really have a lot of things that do anything with it yet.
Since I posted that I learned that https://github.com/DataDog/pg_tracing uses those but is in an alpha state and the commercial https://pganalyze.com/docs/opentelemetry extension seems to do so as well.
