This was one of my favorite talks from RustConf this year! The distinction between cancel safety and cancel correctness is really helpful.

Glad to see it converted to a blog post. Talks are great, but blogs are much easier to share and reference.

> which are optimized to be readable to humans and writable by AI

How might a language optimized for AI look different than a language optimized for humans?

I may be biased, as I definitely love more than 50% of Rust, but Go also does not protect against logical races, deadlocks, etc.

I have heard positive things about the loom crate[1] for detecting races in general, but I have not used it much myself.

But in general I agree, writing correct (and readable) concurrent and/or parallel programs is hard. No language has "solved" the problem completely.

I think Claude Code also already has the option to provide an API key directly for usage based pricing.

I'm a fan of having both a subscription and a usage based plan available. The subscription is effectively a built in spending limit. If I regularly hit it and need more value, I can switch to an API key for unlimited usage.

The downside is you are potentially paying for something you don't use, but that is the same for all subscription services.
