No you cannot get a static analysis tool to guarantee 97% of zig code was safe. Well, you can - the tool is called the borrow checker. Do you know what's infinitely cheaper and fas…

Yikes, the majority of this blog post is saying basically "skill issue" and "Jarred bad engineer", but I think that hurts Zig far more than Andrew realises. If Bun, a disaster of e…

But how would you verify that the agents have written memory safe code? Rust's borrowchecker is a lot faster and actually verifiably safe compared to asking an LLM to fix the safet…

The stability gains are a direct language concern as mentioned throughout the article.

Agree, the claim "secure because Rust" is wrong. But "more secure than if it were written in an unsafe language" is probably going to be true most of the time.

Agreed unfortunately, if Zigs whole selling point is meant to be a "nicer C" (and a much nicer DX than Rust because no fighting the borrow checker etc) - does that really matter in…

I completely agree. Zig has a nicer DX no doubt - no fighting the borrow checker etc. But if you are are writing software for other people they don't care about how nice your devel…

It's alarming how people instantly jump to conclusions that Bun is now "AI slop". Bun has been almost entirely worked on by LLM's for ~6 months now, long before the Rust re-write (…

> When you rewrite a project in another language, it's for engineers to be able to maintain and further develop the project better I don't think that is the case here. Bun is prett…
