The transition from memory-safe languages to C++ is like going from driving an automatic car with all the safety features to suddenly piloting a manual sports car with no guardrails – exhilarating but terrifying. My recent fascination with metaprogramming began after I wrote about Rust&rsquo;s procedural macros. There&rsquo;s something magical about code that writes other code, and I wanted to explore this concept in both C++ and Rust./blog/2023/02/crafting-pydantic-compatible-custom-python-datatypes-in-rust-with-pyo3/Tue, 28 Feb 2023 22:31:27 +0800/blog/2023/02/crafting-pydantic-compatible-custom-python-datatypes-in-rust-with-pyo3/<p>Rust-implemented custom python datatype that is also pydantic-compatible.</p>
