I'm not an ornithologist but birds don't need to consume jet fuel to fly hundreds of miles either.

Re:Fighting Fire with Fire: Scalable Oral Exams

Yes absolutely. For large code writing assignments and projects grad students would be tasked with writing the code. After submission they had to schedule a 15-20 minute chat with a grad student in the course for Interview Grading. Through that process the grad would ask why the student made specific choices in their code, where improvements could have been made, and the process they took to solve the task. It wound up being a pretty effective and kind way to get people to not really care as much about referencing things like StackOverflow (no GPT at the time), and helped make a lot of students need to care much more aabout the why of their code.

My university had a great policy for this. For every major assignment you went through interview grading. if you failed it you lost 60% of that grade.

You can use it in Rust if you like. I've used pglite through wasmer before. Also [pglite-oxide](https://lib.rs/crates/pglite-oxide) is pretty usable.
