I can recommend https://www.giters.com/rust-embedded/rust-raspberrypi-OS-tut... for those of you interested in using Rust. Be aware it also requires the use of Docker though but I don't need Docker and have changed my code not to need it.

View on HN

Is this an alternative UI for GitHub but without the files, commits history and so on? Why tho? I'm confused.

Actual GitHub repo for anyone looking for the files: https://github.com/rust-embedded/rust-raspberrypi-OS-tutoria...

Unlike github or gitlab this page is actually an HTML file and does not need javascript executed to define the web components "HTML". I appreciate an accessible link, at least. I don't know if that's why he linked it.

Oh, was it on GitHub? I hadn't noticed it was different. I'll do better next time.

What is this site that’s re-hosting GitHub repos?

This is perfect for me, I recently made the project OS for Nand to Tetris and have been learning systems programming with Rust. I wish there was a way to find resources like this more easily than scouring HN or trying to sort through google searches.

For a few glorious years google was amazing at this. the difference coming from altavista was unreal.

at this point, I think I'd prefer boolean queries like altavista so I can search the word vectors myself. maybe some meta info so I can include/exclude based on various tags and links.

I so miss those days! I don’t remember exactly when it fully became useless for exact specific queries like that, but I think it was around 2007-2009.

I also did Nand2Tetris, like Rust, and had an interest in more material in this area. I followed v2 of this tutorial[1] and enjoyed it enough to become a GitHub sponsor for in-progress UEFI work, you might enjoy:

Thanks for this, this looks really interesting as well.
