No it has not been 0.5 for years. Check their homepage. You can see the timeline for the releases there. 0.5 was released a few days ago and is a major step for the language.

Zeit should have been written in Zug *badums

Jokes aside this looks Like a very neat tool. I will check it out definitely.


Details matter so much in C++ that it's the worst programming language in existence.


C++ is just horrible and articles like this prove this.


Let us always remember that Americans are the only nation that threw two nuclear bombs on another country and killed countless civilists.


Pretty much every country involved in WW II "killed countless civilians". Some of them killed their own civilians as well. But yeah, the US were the ones who did it most efficiently at Hiroshima and Nagasaki.


When you had therapy for several years there are very wise therapists and authors that teach you that the opposite iOS true despite sounding paradox: Freedom is the limitation of choices.


Elon can give them 400B and he would still have a net worth of 100B and from that he can again get back to his former net worth in a few years. The world is not fair.


That's not how that works. Same reason we don't tax unrealized gains (unless you are Norway).


And The Netherlands


You do realize that a large part of his wealth is tied to the valuation of Tesla (and SpaceX and many other investments).

Selling 100B worth of stocks for anything close to 100B is not possible. That volume would mini-crash the entire exchange.


> Selling 100B worth of stocks for anything close to 100B is not possible. That volume would mini-crash the entire exchange

Nasdaq trades about half a trillion dollars a day [1]. Even if Musk were an idiot and dumped $100bn in one day, it would crash Tesla's stock price, not the Nasdaq.

If Musk wanted to give OpenAI $100bn, the best way to do it would be to (a) borrow against his shares or (b) given OpenAI his (non-voting) shares.

what does this mean?


Steve Jobs was an absolut malignent narcissist and a copycat. Why not Dennis Ritchie for example? This is ridiculous.


Yes, I think this is an insult to our profession. All I can say about Jobs is he made lots of $. Dennis Ritchie revolutionized an industry.


> Yes, I think this is an insult to our profession.

I don't think the Mint's goal is to celebrate developers and computer scientists with the new coins. They're celebrating famous innovators and innovations from each state.


Of course. The author had to be bullshitting. It tried it many times already and it is impossible to let any frontier model program in Zig. The language is evolving too fast and can have breaking changes everyday and the knowledge cutoff for most AI models is only somewhere around the end of last year. Btw, the knowledge cutoff always being so far out-of-date is one of the things I absolutely hate using AI for.


Dude Zig is clearly pre 1.0. It can introduce breaking changes with every commit and rightfully so. I mean d'oh it's Not ready for Prime Time.


Zig uses ZeroVer so don't expect it to ever hit 1.0.

Is that versioning site supposed to be some kind of joke? I can't really figure out if they are joking or serious - the tone comes off as joking, but it could be read as serious too.


I guess you're being Poe's lawwed but it's definitely a joke
