OK, so, #Zig language 'has breaking changes in most versions'. A project (of someone else's) that is only six months old no longer builds.
There's a lot that I like about the language, if it was stable it would definitely be a good choice; but I don't think it is something I can use to build a […]

OK, #Zig language people, where's a good place online to ask dumb newbie questions about Zig?
What I'm thinking of trying to build as an experiment is this:

And the question I want to ask first is, how in Zig to I malloc a chunk of […]

One of the most practical and useful books of my career has been the Thorsten Ball series of writing an interpret/compiler in #golang. I wanted to give to the #zig community so I've written a guide/book at https://www.definitepotato.dev/books/ called From Interpreter To Compiler in Zig.
It's […]

OK, #Zig language looks usable, but it's going to be a learning curve, and I don't think auto-translating my existing C code to Zig is going to be either easy or worth doing, considering how dissatisfied I now am with both the design and the coding of the C code.
H'mmmm...

#Java, #PHP, #JS, #Python are dead.
Nah, just joking.
If you're thinking this because you're a guru in #Zig, #Rust, or #Go, please stop.

As a project to learn #Zig, I wrote z-fasta, a drop-in replacement for samtools faidx. It indexes ~17x faster using mmap/SIMD. It's early days, and I have a lot more planned, but I'd really appreciate any feedback or bug reports from the #Bioinformatics community!

A screenshot of a custom PS1 game emulator. In the window there are many numbers and lights to see. In the centre is a game window showing off a rendering of a racing track from Crash Team Racing.
Things are steadily falling into place on the custom PS1 Emulator. It's actually semi-playable too!

Just what IS Zig, anyway? And why are people using it without writing a line of it? Most programming languages spread because developers write code in them. A developer tries the syntax, likes the ...

Finally have been trying out https://github.com/boyter/scc for counting (unique) lines of code, comments, DRYness and complexity and getting a better and more aggregated overview of the scale of my https://thi.ng/umbrella monorepo. SCC is really much better and faster than what I've using […]

Uptime graph showing a dramatic decrease of availability after the Microsoft takeover. Going from consistent 100%
My head of ops complained that #GitHub CI/CD has become _so_ unreliable, specifically #GitHubAction s and its scheduler (even with #selfhosted runners) that we need to migrate to an alternative.
We're not alone, see e.g. #Zig […]

Added GPT-5.4 support to ZiggyPiAi (github.com/DeanoC/Zi...).
gpt-5.4 with full 1M context
gpt-5.4_smallcontext for the 272K path
Users can now choose full-context vs smaller-context behavior explicitly by model ID.

Meet #NullClaw 🦞, a full AI agent framework written in raw #Zig that fits in 678 KB, runs on ~1 MB of RAM, and boots in under 2ms.
The entire thing is ~45,000 lines of Zig with 3,230+ tests.

TBH I didn't see this coming. You know there's a big hype around OpenClaw, but ... NullClaw beats it. Way smaller, faster, perhaps more secure. And written in Zig language: https://github.com/nullclaw/nullclaw #ai #agent #nullclaw #zig

I built a Tigerbeetle client in Unison by building a Tigerbeetle wrapper client in Zig to the official Tigerbeetle C client. I had no other choice. It was hard and fun. Read more to find out. #zig #unison #tigerbeetle

One sentence: #Myra is C++23. You just write it in Pascal syntax. Myra takes the syntax philosophy of Oberon, start with Pascal, remove everything that isn't essential, and uses it as the front end for a full C++ 23 code generator.
