The niche of short, environment-specific scripts, and the consequences for programming language design choices: https://brrt-to-the-future.blogspot.com/2021/03/why-bother-with-scripting.html

I'm experimenting with syntax in examples. I don't really like Rust's `assert(inc(1) == 2)` syntax, I find it a little distracting. I'm trying `inc(1) //-> 2`. The comment is rendered differently, and there's nothing before the sample code. What do you think?

The word "agent" is so overloaded in the AI space. Sometimes it means a sophisticated interaction system, but other times it just means API. I think it's partly a sign of how new the space is. We don't have consensus on the best way to use these systems yet.
