Greetings Rustaceans! Thankfully Thanksgiving is way late this year, which means that despite appearances Wednesday, November 20 is NOT the day before Thanksgiving, because that would be a really really bad day to hold a meetup!



This month's meetup (our last event for all of 2019!) will be hosted by Ripple at WorkBar Cambridge in Central Square. Doors will open at 5:30 for carousing and food; talks to begin at 6:30; free time to mingle and share from 7:30 to 8:30. Catering will include vegetarian and vegan options.



Our two talks this month:



Core Rust developer Niko Matsakis will be speaking about Polonius, the next generation of the Rust compiler's borrow checker.



Evan Schwartz will be giving a talk on Interledger, a collection of open-source network services and protocols (written in Rust, of course) for decentralized currency-agnostic financial transactions.



Don't miss the other events in our regular schedule: the every-other-weekly lunches in Boston/Cambridge/Somerville and our hexa-weekly hack nights.



Hoping to see you!
