The fact that Zig doesn't have Rust's guarantees doesn't mean Zig does not have safety checks. The safety checks that Zig does have are different , and are different in a way that's uniquely useful for this particular p

I think many people reading your comment and making a cursory glance at what Linus wrote will conclude he's against AI in kernel development. He may very well be, but the post you link to is in in response to this: I'm just sayin

There's a whole industry around interpreting their public statements as whole-truth, and even reading the tea leaves around anything not explicitly stated. You might have heard of it, it's called "SEO".

Zig puts OOM handling much more front and center than C. In C, you can handle OOM but it's easy to ignore NULL checks on mallocs &co because they almost never happen. In Zig you must handle it. Even if handling means "don&
