Data Modelling without in Rust WITHOUT OOP

Data Modelling without in Rust WITHOUT OOP

Today we're talking about how to design your projects in Rust without using inheritance.

I'd love your thoughts on this method, melding normalisation with state machines is not something I've seen elsewhere, I hope it's a good idea. (I think it is!)

Thanks so much for your support, I had a great time with this one, once I'd figured o...

GPT: The Second Renaissance

Hi friends! In today's early patron video I have a few ideas to share with you about AI and GPT that I've not seen elsewhere.

In researching this video I tried to only read and watch sources that were factual, not other peoples opinions, but it's tough, everyone has LOTS of ideas about what this new tech will mean for us!

Rust Tests Itself (Kind of)

Hi friends! In today's early patron video we're going to talk about how to test Rust, and how this is different to testing in other popular languages.

Hope you like the video, I initially planned to include ALL of testing, but as you can see I've had to promise a part #2 at a future date :-)

Delayed video (eta 2022-11-10)

Apologies all, the video that was supposed to be dropping this week is not ready. To possibly paraphrase Shigeru Miyamoto:

A delayed [video] is eventually good, a bad [video] is bad forever.

This is as true on YouTube as it is on game cartages. No patching or editing after publication is possible, it's one of the re...
