@redaction working on a rust rewrite of this that is curently 4x faster, which should unlock a bunch of fun stuff further down the line :)

@Alistair_McF Even down to the animations, so much of the charm that made Rust what it is is now gone. This is the only update in years I have genuinely hated.

How frustrating that when I’m finally ready to post the next chapter of Rust, A03 is down! 🥲

Tempest Hosting has apparently shut down all NY servers today. I had my Rust server on their dedicated box that I spent hundreds of dollars working on and months perfecting, poof out of existence. They claim that Emails were sent December 15th warning customers of the change (1)

during my mozilla research visit in 2014 to work on rust, i found a parser bug that manifested as a segfault in GNU make when you accidentally use spaces instead of tabs in the wrong spot. wasted a week until i gdb'd it down. it was already fixed upstream.

Fortnite you gonna release rust bucket, not the servers down lmao @FortniteStatus

**** Steam being down on Christmas Eve. These are the same people that say they are friendly, get your life story while roaming the Rust Belt and then shoot you at extract.

When @MartinShkreli is down to traumatize some nerds on @playrust and find the next emerging biopharmaceutical. @Steam @Twitch https://t.co/LcqwaaoQiy

Looking for more people to play @playrust with. I have about 600 hours of play time. Mostly modded servers on Ace. Just recently got into building and can put a pretty decent start down. Let me know if you wanna get down! #Rust #PVP

Cloudflare is down again? in part.. oh boy, another Rust issue perhaps?

Cloudflare is down ... again? .... Rust is a problem

There is a water outage in Rust En Vrede Avenue, Constantia, which could also be affecting the surrounds. The department is attending to this.

7mo

Wait, Rust was the reason the internet was down 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 yall better sit down

JUST WIPED!!! 𝖩𝗈𝗂𝗇 ➥ RSPS ✦✦✦✦SNOWRSPS ✦✦✦✦ Search for: RSPS in server tab ------------------------------------------------- Console & PC servers! Rust Private servers (RSPS) **Lookup: RSPS** or SnowRS 1 grid - Max pop 30/30 High PVP (30 pop helps keep lag down)

So what's up? Rust didn't help?... #internet #down

7mo

github going down again, did they transition to rust too?

7mo

On Cloudflare's outage: 1. Better systems engineering should have prevented this 2. Something upstream is more at fault than the Rust service 3. unwrap() was wrong—error belonged in Result 4. Rust service should have degraded gracefully with excess feature data

7mo

Bro cloudflare is down because of one just rust unwrap() that's scary that, how they let unwrap go without handling it

7mo

Cloudflare was down due to an unhandled error of Rust's Result. This is saddingly very common, and is convenient for devs to do so. Just turn on `clippy::unwrap` and make sure you only unwrap only when needed and you know what you are doing.

7mo

people blaming rust for the cloudflare outage it was user error, not a language issue and you’re still to dumb to work in rust

7mo

If the piece of code that caused the Cloudflare outage was written in C++ inside a try/catch block, the outage would have never occurred. Rust doesn't eliminate logic bugs, or seemingly null pointer references either. Why does this language make error handling so difficult?

7mo

This is one of the most interesting parts Created a custom communication protocol and codec for the GUI to interact with ~10+ Rust services (never block the main GUI thread) You can see a basic handshake, ping, version/path agreement and failure when the server is down etc https://t.co/nqcY23eVxU

7mo

Now how do I explain to the people on this application that Cloudflare outage wasn't caused by a memory safety issue in Rust

Frequently asked questions

Is Rust down right now?

Rust appears to be working normally — report volume is within the typical range for this time of day.

Why is Rust not working for me?

We're not detecting a broad Rust outage right now, so a problem is most likely local to you — your internet connection, device, or the app. Try restarting the app, then your router. If many people report the same issue, this page will update to show it.

When was the last Rust outage?

We have no recorded outages for Rust yet.

How do I report a Rust problem?

Use the “Report a problem” button on this page and choose what's not working. Reports are anonymous and update the live status and outage map in real time.

How does Outage.Report know if Rust is down?

We aggregate anonymous user reports and monitor public social-media posts, comparing live volume against Rust's normal baseline for the time of day and region to detect anomalies — often before they're officially confirmed.
