my summary of "using Rust with Ruby: a deep dive with Yehuda Katz"

My summary of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IqrwPVtSHZI

TL;DR:

Rails has a library, ActiveSupport, which adds methods to Ruby core classes. One of those methods is String#blank?, which returns a boolean (sometimes I miss this convention in Rust, the ?) if the whole string is whitespace or not. It looks like this: https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/b3eac823006eb6a346f88793aabef28a6d4f928c/activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/object/blank.rb#L99-L117

It's pretty slow. So Discourse (which you may know from {users,internals}.rust-lang.org) uses the fast_blank gem, which provides this method via a C implementation instead. It looks like this: https://github.com/SamSaffron/fast_blank/blob/master/ext/fast_blank/fast_blank.c

For fun, Yehuda tried to re-write fast_blank in Rust. Which looks like this:

function u() {
requestAnimationFrame(u);
g = p ?
audio.currentTime * 60 : (
audio = "RIFFdataWAVEfmt " + atob("EAAAAAEAAQAAeAAAAHgAAAEACAA") + "data",
b.style.background = "radial-gradient(circle,#345,#000)",
b.style.position = "fixed",
b.style.height = b.style.width = "100%",

Node.prototype.on = window.on = function(name, fn) { this.addEventListener(name, fn); };
NodeList.prototype.__proto__ = Array.prototype;
NodeList.prototype.on = function(name, fn) { this.forEach((elem) => elem.on(name, fn)); };

In the example solr project when you start it up by calling the following line:
java -jar start
You are starting a Jetty server on your local machine that's going to serve the solr results. This server is not able to do CORS (Cross Origin Resource Sharing). Which means that if you tried to do an AJAX call from a webpage of a different origin than the server itself you would be denied a response.
To fix this you first need to get the apropriate jars to allow for cross-domain resource sharing.
I used the following jar:
