So like I mentioned I joined Antithesis a little while back. When I did, I pitched them on a crazy idea. Antithesis... Hypothesis... Hegel! A remarkably short number of months later, Hegel. Hegel is a property-based testing protocol and family of client libraries which makes it easy to do Hypothesis-grade PBT everywhere. Today: Rust. Tomorrow: The world! (Muahaha) https://antithesis.com/blog/2026/hegel/

More soberly: In a week or two, Go. Then some other languages. And of course a whole bunch of engineering and UX work as people use this thing and inevitably find that it is perfect and wonderful and has no flaws and we just have to spend all our time fielding praise for how great we are. (And maybe fix a few bugs)

@DRMacIver@mastodon.social this is so cool! and, incidentally, for one of my current projects the C++ version of Hegel can't come soon enough...

@DRMacIver@mastodon.social when you're ready to make Antithesis unusably slow we can integrate Cosmic Ray.
