Nix Your Bugs & Rust Your Engines is a meetup for people in the Rhein-Neckar region interested in #Rust (the programming language), #Nix (the package manager), or #NixOS (the #Linux distribution). The meetup begins with talks related to Rust and/or NixOS, and ends with casual networking and exchange between the participants.

This time, we meet in room 336B at the DHBW Mannheim (Coblitzalee 1-9).

The event is organized by Bildungskultur Rhein-Neckar e.V., a public benefits association from Heidelberg with a focus on education. We are always looking for new active members. If you are interested in organizing barcamps, workshops or meetups, get in touch with us at the meetup or send an email to post(at)bildungskultur-rhein-neckar.de. We'd love to welcome you and support you in organizing new events.

We have QUIC at home: How iroh connects our devices peer-to-peer

by @matheus23.com, developer at @iroh.computer

The internet makes it possible for devices anywhere to communicate with each other. So why always take the detour through the cloud? We'll take a look at how iroh uses QUIC and hole punching to directly connect devices, even behind firewalls and NATs.

Das Internet macht es möglich, dass überall Geräte mit einander kommunizieren können. Warum also immer der Umweg über die Cloud? Wir sehen uns an, wie iroh mithilfe von QUIC und Hole Punching Geräte auch hinter Firewalls und NAT direkt miteinander verbindet.
