it’s more “it forces you to make it burrow checker friendly”.

A burrow checker is not the only mechanism to write safe code. All the mess of Rust is all because this is the strategy they adopted.

And this strategy, like everything in this world, has trade offs. It just happens that there are a lot, like, - a lot -, of trade offs, and those are insufferable when it comes to Rust…

Zig is “c”, but modern and safe.

The big selling points compared to Rust are:

• A better syntax
• No hidden control flow
• No hidden memory allocation
• Really great interop with C (it’s almost as if you just include the C code as you would in a C code base…)
• Fast compile time
• it’s more readable
• it’s simpler to learn

The syntax is really close to the C language; any C programmer can pick up Zig really fast.

IMO Zig is a far better choice to go in the kernel than Rust.

Linux has tried to include CPP in it, and it failed.

So imagine if trying to fit in a C-like cousin failed, how far they are to fit an alien language like Rust…

It seems more like a software issue than a hardware one. Try a VM my dude…

Hmm, this gave me the itch to play a good stealth game.

I guess I will download “The Dark Mod” when I am back home!

Exactly!

I find myself coming back to cataclysm dark days ahead, caves of qud, dwarf fortress and other “low graphical” games because of the content.

There is a limit on how long beautiful graphics can keep me playing a boring game.

The day I understood that, I started to pickup games based on content, and gosh I am richer than ever!

Nonetheless, I have plenty of games to play when I feel like it.

And probably sometime the guy who executed the command…

As a Linux only user, I totally agree with your message.

People who downvote you aren’t of good faith, are delusional or just dumb.

Linux is better in every single category except ease of use for non-technical users and gaming.

Let’s stop with this bandwagon of MS bad, Linux good; Linux is good enough for us to not lie and speak the truth…

I am waiting for Ghostty…

It’s made in Zig with a focus on performance while giving a good set of features.

Look it up!

What?

Rust doesn’t solve all security issues in codebase?

People should take note of that; I surely did…

I downloaded it, the tutorial part is working great, but once I loaded the “a real” offline game, the framerate went to -10fps…

I am sure it’s due to my laptop using 2 video cards… It’s sad, but I have to pass on that one…

Void.

It all started by curiosity: “let’s try this no-where distros for the lulz”

Then it ended up to be the distro I am using everywhere.

It’s stable and quite on the “bleeding edge” in term of software versions…

And damn it’s fast son!

I don’t care; people are flocking in to buy my junk anyway.

I even have my fan club of my franchise defending my restaurant for free on the Reddit and all…

At the end, the reviews are balancing pretty well, but my financial balance is very green thou.

And do you know what’s funny? My competitors are also doing the same! People believe that’s “how it works” and just accept it.

I am telling you, you should do the same! My shareholders are really pleased with the results…

If there were a bunch of people knocking at your door, willing to pay you to work for you, wouldn’t you take the money?

Of course you will. Companies will also.

The real faulty actors here are the innocent people that don’t understand the gimmick.

I’ve been there, I can’t really blame them… I am no better…

It’s made in rust, therefore it must be safe!

As I mentioned, a couple of tasks loosely related. The patch you are mentioning isn’t complete nor address the real problem.

It is an ugly hack at best.

Refrain from your urge to defend rust at all costs. You are sliding more and more toward the specifics of a project than the fact I stated about rust in general.

If you still not get my initial point I’ve made, read this.

That’s a long read explaining what I meant. My point was about Rust, not Zed or the developers of Zed in particular.

And for the Zed editor, I wish them the best luck, it seems like a great project that people enjoy.

Please feel free to comment and share your thoughts on the article above, my dear favorite nutritious veggie.

Wtf are you talking about? Redis is in C…

There are no patch, the issue has been closed as in rejected.

There are a few tasks that are open that are loosely related, but let’s not mix things up.

Moreover, I will take the words of the maintainers over a random potato on a forum.

No offense…

That’s what I am saying.

To quote you: “they don’t want to rewrite everything” …

Writing Rust often implies major refactoring and it takes so much time to write that your requests go: “pewf” closed due to the amount of effort it takes.

Anyway, been there, done that! Zig is probably the real future; it’s a joy to write, it compiles fast, clear to read, and safe.

It has shared libraries and a proper integration with existing C/CPP code base.

You should try it, that’s an amazing language with a real potential to replace the legacy.

Quoting the guy:

“that rewriting those in Rust will take an eternity, so not sure what is actionable here, hence closing.”

That’s Rust shining from all its glories here gentlemen…

The best language, if there is nothing changing.

That’s a thing to make a web server or a library that displays Fibonacci, that’s something else when there are humans with changing scopes…
