Akctuyally, reading the code instead of a documentation is one of the nice part of Zig.

It is such a readable language that I found it easier learning the API than most languages.

Zig has this on its side. Reading the unit tests directly from the code give, most of the time, a good example too.

I feel like it's worthless to keep up with Zig until they reach 1.0.

That thing, right here, is probably going to be rewritten 5 times and what not.

If you are actively using Zig (for some reasons?), I guess it's a great news, but for the Grand Majority of the devs in here, it's like an announcement that it's raining in Kuldîga...

So m'yeah. I was following Zig for a while, but I just don't think I am going to see a 1.0 release in my lifetime.

The kind of "pay me premium, I am giving you non-premium" type of fraud?

It just proves that there is not much of an improvement if they can get away with, it isn't? But hey, I am sure that the benchmarks are all saying otherwise.

I am with you on that. HN is becoming a "14 years old edgy mini-tech" Facebook.

"Microsoft bad, Linux good" kind of comments are all over the place. There is no more in depth discussions about projects anymore. Add the people linking their blogs only to sell you thier services for an imaginary problem, and you get HN 2026.

It's maybe the time to find another tech media. If you know one, I would be glad to know.

Microsoft US a massive corporation with so many people, business units, departments.

A comment like yours is just like saying: "I know a buggy open-source software, why would I trust that other open-source project? The open-source community burned all possible goodwill".

I think he's a cook, watching people putting frozen "meals" in the microwave and telling himself: "hey! That's not cooking!".

And I totally agree with him. Throwing some kind of fallacy in the air for the show doesn't make your argument, or lack of, more convincing.

I laughed reading the comment above yours. I also laughed reading yours, you are so right on. Next, I am expecting someone telling that there is a javascript on github to automate that build process...

This is not what I was expecting computer science to become, 30 years ago...
