Alice Ryhl explains how the actor pattern fits naturally with Rust's ownership rules and how to implement actors using Tokio.

🔔 FOLLOW RUSTLAB CHANNEL 🔔 ABSTRACT: Actors are an elegant way to work with shared resources. Furthermore, actors fit together with Rust’s ownership rules very well, and learning how to write actors gives a better understanding of how to write code that the borrow checker likes.

…. Catherine West's closing RustConf 2018 talk on Rust gamedev and how ECS systems work, dynamic typing, arenas etc. I first started learning Rust by building games (as I do for most languages) and this one is just so good t describing a lot of the underlying fundamentals of the tools I was using (at the time specs and amethyst, these days Beyv) link to this video 2. This talk from Alice Rhyl of Tokio on the actor pattern. I was fumbling around with event driven systems last year for the first time and really struggling to figure out what I was trying to do, and when I came across this blog and the associated talk (linked below) it all clicked together as "ohhhh this is an established pattern with…

On “I don't understand how the std::thread::scope lifetime's function works”

Lifetime syntax and name choices are janky af.  It’s one of the only notable syntax failings of rust. +’static does NOT mean that the thing is static.  It means that the thing has no lifetime annotations that would shorten it.  (+ often means intersection when dealing with lifetimes, but here it … well lifetimes have not been nearly added to syntax and … I don’t know of any good general disambiguating sources for what it means where.  I suppose that means I should do some extra hw and then make one.  But TLDR: bad info circulates on this and then use is inconsistent.)
