how to compile and run JS code in rust through V8

About the explosion of pagers in Lebanon.

On Tuesday things changed. Whoever got admitted at the hospital with a specific kind of injury will end up in some list. Social networks will be traced and new targets will be identified.

The lessons that software developers can learn: Supply chain attacks in the real world happen every day!

I want to insist because it seems that it's not clear for everyone yet. There is no other way to mitigate software supply chain attacks for an ecosystem / programming language than to build an extensive standard library.

If Rust want to be seriously considered to build the foundations of computing, the number one and only priority of the Rust foundation should be to work on building an "extended standard library", let's call it stdx

The project is on github: https://github.com/lycheeverse/lychee

Crev is a scalable, social, distributed Code Review and recommendation system that we desperately need for establishing trust in Open Source code.

Getting started: https://web.crev.dev/rust-reviews/your_personal_reviews/

The project is not maintained anymore though.

How to Choose

• If the closure only reads from the environment: Use Fn.
• If the closure needs to mutate the environment: Use FnMut.
• If the closure needs to consume ownership of values from the environment: Use FnOnce.

A PoC for a driver in Rust seems promising.

Topic addressed:

• Funding
• crates.io contributions and major updates
• Safety-Critical Rust Consortium

The primary objective of this group is to
support the responsible use of the Rust
programming language in safety-critical
software — systems whose failure can impact
human life or cause severe environmental or
property harm.

• Rust-C++ Interoperability Initiative
• Security Initiative (Public Key Infrastructure Model, Supply Chain Security, Token Security, Threat Modeling, Painter & Typomania tools)
• Infrastructure support
• Rust language Specification

Futur areas of focus: complete crates.io prevenance scans; federate distributed code review-publishing, admin functionnality for crates.io, improve crate signing & PKI with https://theupdateframework.io/, real-time results of crate security scanning)

Ferrocene is the open-source qualified Rust compiler toolchain for safety- and mission-critical. Qualified for automotive and industrial development.

About C and C++ standards; their evolution and the apparition of Rust as an online open-source collaboration and cross-platform language. How Rust features go from idea to stable. What is the reference documentation of Rust?

While for many users, a specification would just be “nice to have”, there are also Rust users for whom such a specification is absolutely necessary to be able to use Rust for the field they work in.

It’s good that we, the Rust project itself, own the language and the process for making changes to it. We just need to get better at documenting it, and could use some help.

Cela peut être un bon entraînement de le réécrire en #rust #RIIR.

The API seems simple as shown in the video https://youtu.be/ZbhzLP3vnkg
