Ugh that "Zig has function coloring" post again. The misunderstanding that post makes is that function coloring refers to at compile time . In other words, in Zig you don't need to write two versions of a function to use it

It's interesting that this was built for Bun (vs other js runtimes) because of its specific properties. Cool to see Bun emerge early as Zig's "killer app".

Surprised to see language satisfaction so high. Error handling is very painful, and Go's own tools don't work together (eg. go mod tidy doesn't work properly with `go.work` since being released in 1.18). So many things in the

Just seems neat, but except for the dependencies it's just a way to package multiple shell scripts into one file, no? I've thought about trying it out a few times but can never see its value over scripts in ./bin.

Happy to see this discussed on HN because I've constantly been stressing about this whenever I shop on Amazon. "All these brands are Chinese with random combinations of characters for a name" I've looked at laptop cases.

I compared the 14" Pro to the M2 Air and here's how it looks to me: MBP 14 base M1 Pro, 32G ram, 512hd = $2400. MBA upgraded M2, 24G ram, 512hd = $1900. Note the Air is almost a pound lighter!
