Tbh zig is as chill as an iceberg compared to rust! I really appreciate the mindset of "c with rough edges removed" that zig promotes. Already using it in our companies stm32 projects

Digital hardware, mainly top-level design in verilog and associated checks using python/perl (sad)

Right now working on a GPU which is fun!

Out of responses?
Your (very condescending) point was that "we" say things in a specific way and that should be aligned with how it's written.

No need to lash out at Britain for giving a counterexample in the English speaking world.

Have a good day!

Thanks! As a hardware guy it'll be a long time before I do anything with this information. Nice to hear the opinions of actual Devs.

Being honest, I'm an outsider looking in. Most likely these things are solved problems, but alternates are always interesting to hear insider opinions on.

Sounds like it's developer experience Vs required post processing in this case, which is a reasonable tradeoff to think about

What do you think of JSDoc? As someone who knows neither I find the idea of no required transpilation very appealing, while still getting the TS ecosystem tools.

DDMMYYYY and YYYYMMDD users can at least agree the other format is still intuitive

The main difference is KDE doesn't make disgusting money off it, and if someone cares enough they can actually submit a fix

Alarmist at best, malicious at worst I think

In fairness I can't tell now. Good point. I would also dig at people not voting in protest and then complaining about trump being in power, but that is a straw man in isolation and I've not specifically come across someone with that opinion
