Can Rust target the GPU?

Sort of; it's not trivial, but some people have done it. See https://bheisler.github.io/post/rust-on-the-gpu-with-accel/ for example. I think https://blog.theincredibleholk.org/blog/2012/12/05/compiling... is the earliest one I know of; two and a half years before Rust 1.0!
