It is not.

I believe Zig will always do bounds checks, except maybe in ReleaseFast mode?

I had an HP Mini 5102 and I absolutely loved it! I actually revived it a few years ago and used it for some modern programming tasks. I think I tried to compile rustc on it once an…

Really cool to see Zig have strong support and a stable financial status <3

Ooh, cooll to hear you got some uptake on the call for formal methods help! Or did you end up figuring it out on your own? Either way, looking forward to the followup!

Oh, I was just watching this yesterday and got a little re-energised about getting back to more active development of my DoD JS engine! Thanks!

Beyond just quite possibly being slop, this is also sloppy and confused: complaining that C++ cannot remove features because they live in the stdlib forever while listing out a bev…

This bug was already reported very soon after the merge.

They have a PR (~~closed by GitHub bot as AI slop, ironically~~ this was wrong info, it was apparently closed by Jarred himself as it missed a conversion or some 20 Zig files to Ru…

Regarding the architecture documentation you have up on tsz.dev, one thing that jumped out to me was the use of the per node typed side pools. A semi-recent talk[0] had benchmarked…

"They're your feelings and no one else has the right to how you should feel about them."

Remember to be careful with looping lest you create an ikikieriö.

Would kernel huge pages possibly have an effect here also?

I may have not properly read the paper that said "This is not a visa, you should apply for a visa using this paper"...

I have very fond memories of Kansai airport. First time I went to Japan I ... Uhh, I didn't have a visa despite going there for exchange. The Kansai airport immigration office utte…

You and me both; never change you beautiful bastard of a language <3

If you want to take a look at some of the "big drivers", the Project Goals[1] is the right place. These are goals proposed by the community and the language developers put together…

He is the Rust project lead, and the Rust project has been doing quite a bit of user, adopter, and non-adopter interviews over the past few years.

It's also been ridiculously slow for a month or two now :/ not a good time to be working on some relatively intricate performance optimisation with DevTools taking 1-4 seconds to e…

I was sitting behind you as you wrote this comment. I just wanted to tell you that.

F.ex. they didn't do postgresql and other DBs separately but instead just had a databases room.

Monkey's paw: you get your wish, but so does someone who wants RAII and single-use-malloc to be left behind as a leaky and bad abstractions. We all happily march into a future wher…

I aim to displease!

Author here: to get the compiler to help me as the programmer to produce correct code (not accidentally using handles after GC) without being massively manual, but (at least curren…
