This submission is advocating Zig over C for system programming. I pointed out a pretty significant reason why maybe you should pause that decision for a bit.
Now it's "FUD", also it's a beta and you're a beta tester, and it's 0.x, and look they disclaim that you shouldn't trust it, and...
This is a bizarre thread. These very comments are precisely why it should give pause (which isn't remotely "FUD", and what an utterly asinine claim). Zig looks neat and it might get there, but this absurd apologism and goalpost moving is not convincing to adopt the language.
Again, in a submission advocating using Zig for system programming. You couldn't script it better.
llm_nerd: "I found a bug. This gives me pause about the whole zig project"
I don't see how the latter is a fair reaction given the former. They only just started working on the libc port (although it has been talked about for a while now)
Some people (not its creators) talk about Zig as if it's anywhere near production ready. It's fine to be excited about it (there's a lot to be excited about), but we gotta be realistic.
