I think Andrew is a big part of it, and the people he surrounded himself with are the other part. What kind of pre-1.0 language hosts conventions? Crazy that they manage to do that. Andrew's vision has always been clear and inspiring to me. I think this got Zig its initial following, and they have capitalized extremely well on it to grow as a community.

How do you even warp these things? Had mine for 3y, sturdy as hell. So sturdy in fact that the only piece I've had to replace is the charger, what's the point in swappable parts now right? /s

It has a very lego-like feeling, with simple, orthogonal design that lets you build the language and constructs you need. Very elegant.

Kakoune has replaced many features with multicursor, including the sed-like commands (where you just select an area, search for patterns inside it to create the multiple cursors, then perform regular edits (which also means you can perform much more complex than simple replaces). It is really useful for refactors, e.g. even if you don't have any LSP (e.g. for plain text) you can easily rename symbols, reorder/select in log files, etc

Rust has editions for strong stability guarantees, and has had them for nearly a decade i believe. Besides, tech backing has grown way past the risky point.

Who deserves to receive help (and, by contrast, who is undeserving of even basic decency) should never, ever be the decision of a few ploutocrats. The state should decide on such matters, and be the upholder of equality. Else, misery becomes a contest for who can be the most compelling, most attractive miserable to the elites.

> Oxide employees bear responsibility for the artifacts we create, whatever automation we might employ to create them.

Yes, allow the use of LLMs, encourage your employees to use them to move faster by rewarding "performance" regardless of risks, but make sure to place responsibility of failure upon them so that when it happens, the company culture should not be blamed.

No, that would be https://1000hv.seiya.me/en/ Easy mistake to make though, it is the 3rd such guide being posted in a week, definitely seems like the subject has a lot of traction.
