Our algorithmic infrastructure creates a scalable graph over source code at scale. Our AI processing infrastructure then enables us to apply AI agents, guided by algorithms, to make code modifications at scale. The core of this infrastructure is already operating at scale
He put some scale in his scale.
AI agents, guided by algorithms
Computers are guided by algorithms, amazing.
Even if you use AI, bullshit is still bullshit. That doesn't change.

If a software engineer can suprivise 1 million lines of code being written a month, then there is no job for software engineers anymore. A single person can't verify that much code in a month, so writing code would no longer be an important skill.
The difficulty here isn't the Rust (since literally anything can be rewritten in Rust with more or less difficulty); the difficulty here is the Ai.

Yeah, at that point you don't need a software engineer at all. You just need a manager to write the correct prompt. The engineer can't read all the code.

Most of them are C++ developers who refuse to face the fact that they've spent years and years trying to master a language that was poorly defined to begin with
How is that worse than you, unwilling to admit that Rust is undefined completely?

Of course they should fix that, but have you driven in SF? There's cars parked in the driving lanes all the time. Most are not self driving.

No laws, cameras, or any type of surveilance ever stopped a crime from happening.
You should just go to Somalia and experience what it's like when there are no laws, cameras, or any type of surveillance.
About 25% of murders in the US are premeditated. Legal ramifications are definitely a consideration for those people.

If you must have a connection to test your vehicles, then you must stop testing them when you lose the connection.
Of course stopping them on the road is not legal either, the fines for obstructing a lane is $200-$500 per instance.

You don't break code that works.
Breaking code that works is job security. "don't break code that works" is something that most of the programming world has given up on, unfortunately (along with KISS).

The problem is that without allowing some "unsafe" operations in Rust or any other language it is impossible to do any I/O
I don't think that's true, unless you insist on immutability. In particular, it IS possible to do safe IO, most languages can handle it. For Rust, it's just a matter of defining the proper rules that make IO safe, and then enforcing them.
