Interesting project, I might reuse that for different wallets - seems pretty cool.

Where is the typing game?

I've learned the hard way over the years that it's best to overestimate how complicated things will be and how long you will need to build them. If you think something will take a year, assume it will take three. If you think you have something implemented, assume you'll have to significantly refactor it at least twice when you suddenly discover requirements or issues you never anticipated. You're one person and the days are short, and the hours few, and it's very easy to waste them at the altar of ambition! Or as the saying goes - the perfect is the enemy of the good.

Yay! New vid.

It doesn't really matter, but I don't think you need to collect into a vector twice at the beginning, I believe if you use .to_lowercase() on a &str it should make a String from it. Also &str (and slices in general) have .begins_with() and .ends_with() methods, though a single .find() call might be more efficient technically (though all of this has negligible effects of course, its maybe just an ocd thing).

I like that you once creted a mini project, I sometimes struggle to finish such projects because I find it demotivating that it's not original and someone probably done it way better. But afterall every project makes you a better programmer

Nah

I am deeply offended! Going to go protest outside your house about this.

Looking at the comments... Do people not know what cryptocurrencies are ? There is nothing inherently wrong with crypto, and the dude just made a single video about a cool piece of code, not even promoting the coin.

cool

Are you... mining crypto wallets?

6:20 ratatui-lib is also pretty cool for this kind of stuff

Audience capture is awful.

Why would you use GPT for the maths? It would be not that hard to just do the maths yourself, and it would be way more credible. The chatGPT-ification of even the simplest tasks is a bit sad. Cool video apart from that.

gamedev nerds absolutely seething over crypto in the comments lmao.

I’m surprised by how much 🔥this video got just because it touches on crypto. To be clear, my only intention was to showcase the programming side of building a vanity wallet generator-an interesting technical challenge. My intentions had nothing to do with hyping crypto or promoting "scams"; it’s purely about solving a programming problem. I understand that many people view the crypto market with a critical lens, and that’s completely valid-there are good reasons to be cautious. That said, I have no plans to make more crypto content. I just happened to stumble upon this project and enjoyed it for how easy Rust makes tool building

Would love if you could link resources for networking

So for those who are wondering why crypto is such an incredibly negative things and why there are so many comments about how promoting it sucks there are 2 main reasons. 1. Most crypto is a scam, while not all crypto is a scam a vast majority of crypto coins are rugpull scams created by rich people to get more rich. This paints crypto in an incredibly negative light and is why crypto is just associated with scams at this point. Basically most people think of crypto as a scam so promoting it in anyway is a little scummy at best. 2. Crypto has had incredibly negative impacts on the environment and on the cost of pc parts. Crypto mining has become an incredibly popular thing with the rise of crypto which is a problem because mining crypto uses an incredible amount of recourses. Crypto mining has used a lot of power and has had a VERY negative effect on the environment over the past few years. Crypto miners also tend to buy up a lot of graphics cards and use them for crypto mining which is why graphics cards have seen such a rise in price and scalpers. TLDR: Crypto is bad for consumers, the environment, and is just overall a very negative thing. Don't promote crypto in any way, it's bad.

whats your favorite UUID?

For the probability calculations, please don't use ChatGPT if you're going to show them in the video. Do the basic math required and maybe show how it's done.

bruh if you're gonna do crypto content at least do it with a currency that is actually used as a currency (e.g. monero) and is not a somewhat centralized premined coin mostly created to enrich its creators... I mean the consensus algorithm for XRP is cool but idk, crypto vids, even practical ones like this seem a little out of left field for your current audience...

how fast u will take all wallets in blockchain?)

I see Tantan video. I press like.

I love your crypto stuff. Nobody does it like you. I’m so deeply disappointed to see you doing game dev content.

Love your style of content. Don't care about the subject matter. I don't think this is crypto pushing. Just more of, how rust can work in other area's Keep doing what you're doing, we love it!!!!😊

“This ugly public hash key… which is what makes crypto safe and secure” hmmmmm

The problem with crypto is not the technology (mostly), it's the grift, the culture. Now, does making a software video about crypto a promotion of crypto culture?

ok now make it hardware accelerated

idk why people are complaining about crypto. This video is really good!! It's fun to see that such little code can do something like this

Can't believe Tantan is doing crypto content... 😢

crypto? ew

why promote scams

So what you're saying is, I should do this but on every single one I try and make a transaction sending all of the crypto to my own wallet? Cool beans! _Too bad it's statistically impossible for this to actually net me anything lol_ Also, for any of you nitwits out there who would actually try this, don't. Not only will you waste your time, but in the astronomically unlikely chance you are successful it's literally stealing. Have some morals! :)

You don't need to publish secret key! Just use a seeded random and publish the code! XD :P

Very curious, indeed, but funny hah

I love your game dev content. Nobody does it like you. I’m so deeply disappointed to see you doing crypto stuff.

Why XRP though?

THIS IS SO COOL

DUDE THIS IS SO COOL

I dare u to dislike this comment

He's alive !!!!

first

R compile times decent or is it anoying?

my code smell brain without actually seeing any code would say that your multithreaded solution is slower due to memory access speed issues. Make sure you understand how your data is being laid out in memory, make sure it's contiguous and make sure that you're not doing random read and write. also, more threads are only faster if they are not using the same data. You need to make it so that each thread is working on its own chunk of data. The catch here is that moving data costs performance, so you need to make sure that you are handling that data in the most optimal way possible. From the language you are using I can tell you are not using C++, which means you are most likely not doing direct memory management. Look into pointers, references, and copying data. Learn the differences. Since Rust manages memory for you, it's probably doing a terrible job of it.

"My world is on fire, how about your's" ? Yes. Pain.exe - One for the client, and one for the server

haha ok, most videos on the topic are rather boring, but excellent job ! This video was quite funny but on topic :)

Qutebrowser, twm, nvim, vifm, newsboat and mpv. With those tools I just don't need to use mouse so much.

Tantan, you don't know how much you are really working on, and it is so, so impressive. You are tackling so many issues that are ANYTHING but trivial, or even moderate, all at once, as a single person. This alone deserves all the praise and patience. Making a working voxel engine is one thing, now tackling networking with all the nits combined is a whole 'nother. Many use Unity just because they don't have to deal with networking. Plus, it is evident that you don't use any half-assed solutions, you go faaar out of your way to search for novel or minimally implemented solutions, just so that it's as optimal as possible. You are essentially conducting a form of research. So please, Tantan, allow yourself ALL the time you need. Don't be afraid to try things over, after all you should enjoy the process. I'm building a highly complicated and integrated ECS engine on which I plan to build a voxel engine later myself. I know how it feels. These things take YEARS. And it's okay. John Lin popped out probably the most sophisticated voxel engine of our time, and 3 years later, he is still gone. So don't beat yourself up if you're gone a few months, or even a year. This is part of the process. You have all the support from all of us, and please, take the time you need! Don't beat yourself up :) And don't be afraid to take breaks.

What if, just listen listen, we keep da data on the gpu… all the time?
