    Don’t see why this even needs to be news.

    Zig is just mid anyway as a programming language, partly because its just a new masturbatory Lang for C people and partly because of Andrew’s poor, shepherding of the project.

    I don’t think Andrew is notable enough to bother having a full article about the things he does.

      You sound like you know what you’re talking about. I would love to try the programming language you created. Can you share it?

        i hate this cliche. does one need to be a licensed pilot to observe that a plane is crashing? do i need to be a director to say a movie was bad?

          I don’t use zig but a lot of people do. It’s good enough for a lot of people. Shitting on it is simply immature so I replied with immature cliche.

        Feel free to try out Rust then.

        Not everyone needs to invent a language when one can contribute to an existing one.

      I thin Zig actually stands out pretty well from the pack. You sound maybe a little jealous or something?
