I don’t understand here.
Back in my old time, cafeteria food was also shit, so everybody was bringing their lunch (a sandwich, some fruits, a little boxed juice) and we called a day.
Is that piece of bread and rice (rice right?) and the piece of brown chicken we are seeing in the corner (badly cut out of the picture for more dramatic effect) free of charge? If so, what are you complaining about? If not, why don’t you bring your god damn sandwich like it has always been?
My bullshitometer is ringing.
It’s easy to say you wanted xyz, bbuuttt the evil Microsoft arrived and it’s all its fault now.
Look, those microtransactions were there from the beginning, before Microsoft bought Blizzard. Nothing changed since, not before, not after the acquisition.
Cut the crap already.
See the guy in orange on the left?
Now, what are those toddlers dressed in fluo doing next to him?
My old ass can’t compete in multiplayer games anymore.
Now I enjoy my slow pace / turn-based games when I want to relax.
It makes sense to me the older we get, the less time we spend gaming.
If I have to trade a solid 8 hours of sleep or play 1 hour or 2, the bed is winning.
I don’t know what you are talking about?
Rust is such an amazing language, it’s so safe and clean and beautiful and simple and clear to read and such wow community that are making amazing crates for cargo because cargo is so cool I like it so much so easy to…
Oh, and your fav lang sux alot!1 lolololllll
- Zig uses allocators, which will inform you if you are leaking memory.
- Zig comes with defer/errdefer to simplify the resource cleanup (and for ergonomics).
- Zig comes with Optionals to manage nulls.
- Zig comes with slices (ptr + size) to manage all the bound-checking.
- Zig automatically check for overflow/underflow arithmetic.
- Zig will check for pointer alignments when casting between pointer types.
=> Zig is designed to make you do it right easily, and very hard to do it wrong.
In other words, Zig will let you be, but warn you when you are doing something wrong, where Rust is like Karen who is always screaming at you for every word you are typing.
To summarize, you really need to /want/ to fuck up to fail your memory management… If after all that you still can’t manage your memory, it might be better for you to look for another carer.
Something is sure thou, Zig is very safe - just as it’s safe to cut my veggies with a knife. I might cut a finger and bleed a little bit, but I will not use plastic knife “because it’s safer”.
Moreover; You are talking like if Rust is safe, all the time, which is not true in reality:
52.5% of the popular crates have unsafe code. Therefore, in an average real-world Rust project, you can expect a significant number of the dependent crates to have unsafe code – Source
Basically, you’re comparing a hypothetical world where Rust is always safe to a superficial glance at Zig’s capabilities to claim a “winner” here.
And for the String library… Are you fucking serious? Do you want to compare the Zig’s Std library versus the famously tiny Rust Std library? Really?
Rust in Linux lead retires
“I was expecting [Rust] updates to be faster, but part of the problem is that old-time kernel developers are used to C and don’t know Rust,” Torvalds said. “They’re not exactly excited about having to learn a new language that is, in some respects, very different. So there’s been some pushback on Rust.” Torvalds added, however, that “another reason has been the Rust infrastructure itself has not been super stable.” – Source [24-09-03]
I’m not sure that’s something to be crowing about, mate…
