This is part of what makes Smalltalk or Lisp environments, especially something like Symbolics Genera, so enjoyable. The whole env is modifiable, so you’re end up in that same situation. Would love to get back to that but with Rust somehow.

This "patch it while it's running" is so nice. I've been using Erlang for this for years. My C,Rust,Haskell code has wrappers to be loaded as services in a distributed Erlang system. I save a C file, the corresponding service recompiles, restarts. Includes STMs on USB.
