However, I had a different takeaway when playing with Rust+AI. Having a language that has strict compile-time checks gave me more confidence in the code the AI was producing.

I did see Cursor get in an infinite loop where it couldn't solve a borrow checker problem and it eventually asked me for help. I prefer that to burying a bug.

There are a lot of reasons a kid may be struggling in school and it doesn't mean they are dumb or their future is worthless, as your hypothetical kids shows. I live in an area with one of the top public schools in America, they have a well funded gifted program. I know several parents whose dyslexic children are not getting the support they need.

Kids that are struggling in class can be just as disruptive.

> Gifted kids in a single stream classroom need to learn to play dumb or become a social pariah.

Aka learn to function in society?

Here's my story from the other side. I have one gifted child and one child with dyslexia, but doesn't qualify for special education. My school district has a gifted program that is a whole separate school, but they have a handful of specialists to help kids struggling to read. They are shared across the grades and hard to get assigned. One of them has to actually be paid for by the PTSA since the district won't pay for it. That's messed up.

I don't think that's as big of an issue because kids have access to teachers, libraries and the internet.

> Gathering gifted kids together, instead of bunching them with lowest common denominators, can result in lifelong friendships.

Kid's together creates the opportunity for friendships. Focusing too much on academics at a young age will miss key milestones for social development. It's particularly acute for high functioning autistic kids.

Neural networks are also way less power efficient. Quantum computing allows us to calculate things that would take a lot of power or time to calculate (not calculate things that are impossible). If one could create consciousness with classical physics it wouldn't prove anything about how the human brain works. In fact if it was wildly less power efficient it might even suggest non-classical physics in the brain.

Bingo, that's the difference. That's why I said "compile-time memory safety". This is what Rust gives you for your trouble, zero (runtime) cost for memory safety.

It's my understanding that commands inside of a command buffer are guaranteed to complete in order. The synchronization must happen when you are `vkQueueSubmit`ing multiple command buffers, no? I think that's what they meant to say?

I'm not sure exactly what feature the OP was referring to. It sounds like they don't think you can get a REPL for an executing Fennel process? You can. If you are only using it for AOT Fennel->Lua you can't, you have to include its runtime.
