🦀 I've improved the implementation behind all the string formatting macros in Rust: println!(), panic!(), format!(), write!(), log::info!(), and so on. (That is, everything based on format_args!().) They will compile a bit faster, use a bit less memory while compiling, result in smaller binaries, and produce more efficient code! 🎉

'Hello world' compiles 3% faster and a few bigger projects like Ripgrep and Cargo compile 1.5% to 2% faster. And those binaries are roughly 2% smaller. 🎊

This change will be available in Rust Nightly tomorrow, and should ship as part of Rust 1.93.0 in January.

#rustlang

Vrouw wordt uit een riksja geholpen, Hong Kong, Ed van der Elsken, 1959 - 1960

#Vrouwwordtuiteen #HongKong #EdvanderElsken #fotografie #photography #EdVanDerElsken #EdvanderElsken

rijksmuseum.nl/en/collection/R…

The black and white photograph depicts a busy street scene, likely in Hong Kong given the title reference. In the foreground, two women are assisted by another individual as they board or disembark from what appears to be an early form of rickshaw transport attached to a bicycle-like mechanism with metal bars on wheels for support. The woman boarding is wearing dark clothing and has her arms outstretched towards the assisting figures. Behind them, several individuals walk in different directions; one man looks directly at the camera while others engage in various activities such as walking or carrying items. Their attire suggests an informal setting from a past era, with hats worn by some of the men indicating possible sunlight exposure or fashion trends of that time. The background features urban architecture and additional people going about their day, creating a sense of daily life bustle. The image is labeled "Vrouw wordt uit een riksja geholpen" (translated as 'woman being helped out from a rickshaw'), which suggests the primary focus on this action taking place in an everyday setting. The photograph has a historical feel due to its monochromatic color scheme, and it captures candid moments of people interacting with each other. The image is credited to Ed van der Elsken, who was active during 1959-1960 as indicated by the reference link provided in the description.
