Re:Why Zig over C for Systems Programming by hn_submit on Friday November 13, 2026 @12:02PM (#50486365)
I'd much rather read why Zig over Rust. The syntax looks very much alike and they're both for Systems Programming (although both are probably used for Application Programming).

The warts and pitfalls of C are well known, but why would one not choose Rust? I personally feel that Zig is superfluous. I'd either stick with C or would move right onto Rust.
