But as we get LLMs to write more of our code, shouldn’t we be moving to languages like Rust, where the compiler is very strict and has lots of checks against subtle bugs? In this sense Python is the worst possible language for vibe coding, because Python allows all sorts of bad code to (mostly sorta) run.

Yup. Hilarious! ...until LLMs are generating code replete with security flaws because they read this and took it seriously.

People are still going to read the PR regardless of how it was created.
In some environments this is a hard requirement, and will be hard to break. Places where the code is know to have big impact / blast radius and can’t be wrong. In other environments (most startups founded in the last six months) no human is ever reading any of the code. It’s kinda terrifying but I think it’s where we are going. And here I would argue having strict compilers is way more important.

#27I contemplated writing a similar list for https://raku.org, then realised that all these things are legal / encouraged in Raku anyway

The author describes that as "the nuclear option" but is it really more nuclear than Corroded? Many of the things Corroded allows would not be allowed in Rust--, if I understand right.
