> Zig, for all its ergonomic benefits, doesn’t make memory management safe like Rust does. Not like Rust does, no, but that's the point. It brings both non-nullable pointers and bounded pointers (slices). They solve a lot of problem by themselves. Tracking allocations is still a manual process, but with `defer` semantics there are many fewer foot guns. > I kind of doubt the Linux maintainers would want to introduce a third language to the codebase. The jump from 2 to 3 is smaller than the jump from 1 to 2, but I generally agree. |
