I'm very relieved we've moved away from rewriting everything in Rust.

There's no reason not to use Rust for LLM-generated code in the longer term (other than lack of Rust code to learn from in the shorter term).

The stricter typing of Rust would make sematic errors in generated code come out more quickly than in e.g. Python because using static typing the chances are that some of the semantic errors are also type violations.

Have we though? I'm glad we're not shouting about it from the rooftops like it's some magical "win" button as much, but TBH the things I use routinely that HAVE been rewritten in rust are generally much better. That could also just be because they're newer and have the errors of the past to not repeat.

FWIW Claude Code is quite good at writing Rust, and Claude and Gemini are both surprisingly good at explaining complex third-party Rust libraries.
