I used to think like this. But I've come to realize that editing, whether by a professional or an AI, is a good thing. It flags when I think I'm being clear, but I'm not. Sometimes that's as simple as reworking a sentence to be less verbose, but other times a simple edit can indicate that the entire paragraph is confusing. LLMs can be quite helpful here, because you can actually ask them what they understand, and they'll give you a good idea of what your readers are actually reading. Even when you are a good writer, it helps to understand what people are actually taking in. A good editor will do this, as will teaching students, but an AI will do it with you all day without complaint and without embarrassment.

Google still works for this sort of thing, even if you've surrendered your common sense to the Callaway Caligula. If you don't like these examples, just search for "emoluments" or "self-dealing" , or "injunction".

Because the point of Rust is that it's safe by design. In other words, once you've figured out how to structure your program to make it not do unsafe things, you have a design you can just implement in C and (as long as it's a faithful implementation), and it will also be guaranteed to be safe. The only reason not to is that maintenance is harder that way. It also shows that Rust has to many limits because code that is provably safe by a human cannot be written in Rust without a redesign to meet Rust's more limited understanding of safe.

If this guy was smart enough to cobble together a game, he may also have been smart enough to include consent to the wholesale appropriation of your data in the software license agreement.

(I think this would make the charges more difficult to prove, but probably only enough to get him a better plea offer.)
