Understand it, then run it

The Rust team has added a new Zulip channel called #infra/announcements. It is meant for big infrastructure updates that could affect people working on Rust or using the Dev Desktop. The channel will only get the most important news, not every small outage. If you are part of the Rust project, you can sign up to see those announcements.

Run it now

Todayrust

// This program demonstrates the new Zulip channel for infrastructure announcements.
// The change is not part of the Rust language itself, so we just print a message.
fn main() {
    println!("Zulip channel #infra/announcements is now available for infrastructure updates.");
}

What it printed when we ran it on Rust 1.98.1 (edition 2024)

Zulip channel #infra/announcements is now available for infrastructure updates.

Run sends this program (for Solidity, the contract and its tests) to our own sandbox, where it is compiled and run once, with no network, and what it printed or the test report comes back here. Nothing is kept. Runs are counted per visitor for the day so everyone gets a turn; the details are on the legal page.
