it is a strength, and the reason why i picked Zig over Rust

i want to control lifetimes and memory management, so i can target the hardware i want, and i can play with memory the way i want to do tricks and optimizations that could not be possible with a rigid language like rust(that is very slow btw)

the day zig adds borrowchecker or some lifetime enforcment shenanigan will be the day i'll look for an alternative
