Advanced Rust Programming Techniques
summary
Covers how Rust uses ownership and borrowing as contracts for resource lifetimes, shows three concrete API patterns for writing a string to a file (take ownership, borrow data, borrow both file and data) and argues when each fits. Builds a mutex from UnsafeCell plus a guard whose Drop unlocks; lock uses a blocking pthread-style call and an unsafe block to dereference raw pointers. Claims unsafety works if it’s tightly encapsulated and reviewed.
