Ahahahahaha. Oh wait, you're serious? Let me laugh even harder!

But seriously this article can't make up its mind. Zig built safety, except it isn't safe because it just trusts you. Zig assumes you're adult and doesn't help you, but also it's easy and anyone can do it!

The contradictions just keep flowing throughout this entire puff piece.

Oh, really? Zig doesn't have a build.rs? And why is that? Couldn't possibly just be because it's called build.zig instead, could it? https://ziglang.org/learn/build-system/#installing-artifacts

And what's that? Oh, Zig also has a lazily fetched package manager? And it encourages everyone to use nightly because it's not a stable language yet? Tell me more about how cargo complains too much about outdated crates.
