Zig SHOWTIME #42: Asynchrony Is NOT Concurrency! Airs TODAY IN 3H FROM NOW live on Twitch! Join Andrew and me to see a full demo of the upcoming Async I/O design for Zig! More times & info: zig.show
wrote 'zfind' just for fun, turns out it's quite faster compared to the original 'find'. I haven't even implemented async via io_uring. should I push ahead? planning to make zgrep as well and maybe combine them both? or make them separate programs? hopefully all zero deps!

Kristoff is talking about and demoing the async IO in his Twitch livestream. Watch kristoff_it with me on Twitch! twitch.tv/kristoff_it?sr…
Async IO demo in Zigtoberfest '25 !! 🤯 Looks like in 2026 we'll get true async!
Andrew & part of the core team will be present at Zigtoberfest 2025 to demo the upcoming async I/O implementation. Plenty of other interesting talks as well. The event will be held in Munich (Germany) on October 25th. Tickets are free! zigtoberfest.de
For those missed the livestream. Lots of cool improvements, expect 0.15 release in August, targeting to beat LLVM both in compile time AND machine code quality, flexible / custom async-await, in-house fuzzing.

Which programming languages are they? White calico is a feisty female with a blackhole stomach (non-stop eating). Orange is super playful male and runs around full of energy. They both collapsed on manual memory management xD

What's goin on here chat? It's over I tell you! You guys getting replaced by AI, I got replaced by a kitten!

This path shown by the China model is the path where advancement in AI is possible without destroying the creative industry whilst protecting intellectual property. This is the sustainable path and it would be the ideal compromise if the world adopts it.
“May you live in interesting times.”
Another neat trick: you can built your own DEFER (e.g to auto-free memory or auto-close file when going out of scope) in C just like what you'd use in Zig. Note in the image it passed fanalyzer and sanitizer compile steps without needing to manually free memory.

ziglang.org/devlog/2025/#2… The new x86 backend is now the default in Debut Mode (Windows still default to LLVM).

in 30mins I'm going to give Python intro to a couple hundreds of Economic faculty students (non-programmers). But I won't be using jupyter NB or collab..it will be in Neovim and all terminal UI glory. And I look like metal rockstar biker gang member..imagine the confusion! LOL
Does this means if I dip sudo-rs in a hydrochloric acid, it would become pure sudo again? 🤔
This is what happens to rust in hydrochloric acid. ☆ photoowlsocial
I'm on the side that's perfectly fine with all these rewrites..under one caveat: as long as it doesn't take my resources (time especially). If it does? I'd be upset for sure! Would much prefer to do some gamedevs with my kids if I got spare time.
Grok says that it took since Dec 2022 to write sudo-rs and that it represents about 2 years of work. That sounds like a lot of effort to make sudo memory safe using Rust! Is there an easier way to get a memory safe sudo? How about: 1. Download Fil-C 0.668.6 binaries. 2.…
