   I'm not interested in spending time fixing something that is not considered broken by someone else. They are not bugs that have been introduced by mistakes. Don't get me wrong, I like to help people. But I learnt to not help peopl

   Yes, I can see the design of D was made carefully. D is actually a great language. I just "don't understand" why it's not massively used instead of more recent versions of C++, I consider newer version of C++ as a totall

   Thanks for spending your time explaining this. I think a lof people will understand those lines better. I actually already knew everything. I watched closely the development of Zig, and just give up when I realized all those decisions where

   Thanks for your comment. It's pretty normal to face this downvotes when talking about language. And my phrasing was not the most kind of all. It's just the CS community, at some point when you are writing languages you tend to try

   Following what you say we should only have binary format. I think you underestimate the convenience of a text format. It does not only provide a simple way to generate it, but also provide a way to modify it by hand .

    Great work, I wanted to know a way to play with WebAssembly and Zig. This is perfect. Do you know how easy/difficult would it be to make a desktop version of it ? One of my long term goal is to make it cross platform.

    You should combine "__COUNTER___" with "before_after_##__LINE__" to make a unique identifier more robust. Your snippet won't work with this inline example: before_after("hello", "world") { be
