  • Great article I think. I don’t have a lot of experience in zig, but I feel like it’s just a better version of C. More specifically, C with a more modern synthax, better defined behaviour, better error handling. As the author highlights it, using the comptime and reflection to make generics can easily become a footgun and make the code messy. But hey, having the option to make generic code is still better than C.





  • Not that you will care: Switzerland passed a similar constitutional amendment in 2021, with no exception for religious purposes. It was proposed by a right wing party with barely hidden anti-muslim sentiment. It’s one of the many recent moves that, in my view, makes my country more vulnerable to authoritarian drifts as it makes it harder to conceal one’s identity in protests. There is a difference it seems to the law discussed in this article in that in switzerland the fine is not automatic. it only occurs when someone refuses to uncover their face when asked to.
