It’s not a Zig post if pjmlp doesn’t claim the language is Modula-2 rip-off. Seriously impressive that you’re going to repeat that until the end of time

- pjmlp 6d agoNot everyone reads the same posts, and post 2000 younger generations need to be educated in what came first, what is actually new, and what is language adoption marketing. Because it is a rip off, pretending nothing else has done it before, in fact it could even be called a PL/I ripoff for that matter, which predated C for about a decade, had already had all the bounds checking, proper strings and arrays, was actually used to deliver several IBM OSes, and is used to this day on z/OS. Certainly much larger production deployments than Zig. Yes I will, as long as I am part of this realm, can be in HN, or whatever is the social media of the day, I started with BBS, USENET, Slashdot and plenty others.
