I looked into Zig because it seemed interesting. I like the idea of a safer C but the compile errors for unused variables pretty much killed my interest the second I encountered them. I could accept this if there was a compiler flag to disable this behaviour but no such flag existed. I have no patience for languages like that so I went back to C++ instead.
This fucking thread on HN right now.
OP is an enlightened freelance webdeveloper who is very scared about ghosts from their computer.
“I find myself in a unique position here, as my diverse background and experiences have given me a perspective that allows me to see the potential impact of AI more clearly than large parts of the society I’m living in”
Another poster is also very scared about ghosts from the computer and converted their entire net-worth into NVidia shares. Now that they are heavily invested in a company deeply entangled with ghosts from the computer the apocalypse basically has to happen. After all it couldn’t be that they overreacted.
