CppCast Episode 342: Zig with Andrew Kelley

[@NicolaLarosa]

Zig talk begins at 14:50.

[@ronaldreagan7347]

Would you guys considering interviewing gingerBill? The person behind Odin.

[@vram288]

I watched the full talk. I found it quite interesting. And although I have only read a little Zig code so far, my experience was that I could understand most of it, so I think Andy's goal on that front seems to have been at least partly successful.

[@garanceadrosehn9691]

Sounds like a lot of interesting technology. Thanks for the interview.

[@gokukakarot6323]

What did you guys link to? I can't see shit. Where is this templating thing and all. Which author (11:20) , Also how to become friends with Andrew? A best practice guide for that would be helpful.

He/him? Shouldn’t that go without saying?

[@joebuydem]

Don’t be a dick.

[@user-ov5nd1fb7s]

Andrew, Rust was started in 2010 and went 1.0 in 2015.

[@ankan2088]

I think you are confusing it with the time mozilla officially sponsored around 2010.

[@user-ov5nd1fb7s]

@@ankan2088 maybe but rust before that wasn't really the same language. It had a GC, if I remember correctly.

[@notuxnobux]

It started in 2006 and yes they changed it a lot. Thats how all languages work.

[@user-ov5nd1fb7s]

@@notuxnobux You are arguing that changing memory management strategies is something normal in languages. It is the opposite of normal. In fact, it is so abnormal that it is completely justified to not consider it the same language, other than having the same name.

[@r2com641]

Why (he/him) there? I mean we can clearly see it’s “him” ?

Seriously, we need to stop pandering to this bs.

[@igorzhukov8687]

More than 900k Ukrainian refugees go to Russia. And about 2.5 million go to Poland. So not order of magnitude.

[@SamualN]

it's one of those well know small orders of magnitude that's actually ×2.7

[@user-ov5nd1fb7s]

Those refugees don't go to Russia. They are kidnapped by Russians.

[@pengain4]

Some of those "900k" are forcefully moved.
