So @duckdb supports reading and writing directly to object storage. How’s the performance on this?

I’ve been writing software for ~15yrs. I’ve been working in #rustlang for the last year or so. I’ve been considering starting a blog to share my learnings and experience working with Rust in production. Would anyone be interested in reading this? #programming #coding

New blog post alert! Rust's error-handling patterns are one of its best features. You can handle every error case clearly and trust your code. Are you learning #rustlang and want to get a handle on error handling? Check out my latest blog post!

What is it that makes the Rust ecosystem so vibrant? The language is great but there are many great languages that don’t have such a strong constellation of tools and libraries. I think `cargo` is probably the biggest reason Rust is so successful. - Easy to install libraries
