Maybe you’ve had bad experiences with them in the past, but I haven’t so far (other than seats and refunds as I mentioned). I’d suggest giving them another shot if you have a chance and they’re cheaper (maybe try a shorter flight first). Po

Honestly, travelling in Europe, Ryanair is my preference over most regional airlines. I've never had any issues with them other than the awful seats. I get a second carry on bag, and as long as its roughly the right size, they don'

Thank you for this! I just wish it had an offline version so I could play it during the 9 hour flight I'm about to board. EDIT: what’s with the downvotes? I’m confused.

How do you implement arena allocators in that situation? Or allocate from a fixed-size buffer? { var arena = std.heap.ArenaAllocator.init(std.heap.page_allocator); defer arena.deinit(); // All allocations mad

To add to that, it's also idiomatic for external libraries in Zig to take an allocator as arguments, rather than using the libc's malloc like a lot of C libraries do.
