Technical Term: Inlining

The Farscape Bridge

The computing landscape stands at an inflection point. AI accelerators are reshaping our expectations of performance while “quantum” looms as both opportunity for and threat to our future. Security vulnerabilities in memory-unsafe code continue to cost billions annually. Yet the vast ecosystem of foundational libraries, from TensorFlow’s core implementations to OpenSSL, remains anchored in C and C++. How might we bridge this chasm between the proven code we depend on and the type-safe, accelerated future we’re building at an increasing pace?
