Last I checked "poised to achieve this" implies the future. Moreover I have specific reasons to say that, namely that zig now ships with C compilation with transparent cross-compilation support so you can use it as a direct replacement for C and (I believe make), so the statement is based on current zig features whose importance I alluded to in the comment.
Fwiw this is also a real problem as I am often hearing complaints about windows ABI support in elixir, anyways. Moreover, having written nifs, I have to say the c header for nifs is basically unintelligible without manually parsing the DEFINES because of windows cross-support needs.
Please let me know if I'm using "poised" incorrectly.
- catach 7y agoTo my mind, "poised" in this context is roughly synonymous with "ready". If the official position of the project is "don't use it yet" then it's not ready yet. The future implied is the completion of the action one is ready for, not further work of preparation for that action. Your take may, of course, differ.
