I'm curious to see how Zig approaches the hard problems and hopeful it produces something remarkable enough to make me jump ship (like Rust has for some of my projects). I'm not trying to change your mind either; I'm…
Thanks for the response. I look forward to seeing how the type system evolves. - No hidden allocations: Other languages already provide abstractions for this. Are hidden allocations really a significant issue in modern…
Ok, thanks! Appreciate your time and it’s awesome to see the TigerBeetle team solving hard problems in OLTP while giving back.
I don't know. I don’t doubt that TigerBeetle’s hardest correctness challenges can’t be solved by language alone. TigerBeetle has impressive guarantees! Those are inherently systems-design problems. But the language…
It's a bit of both! I’d love feedback from someone more experienced with Zig, especially if there’s any flaw in my reasoning here. The programming language is part of the system design. The abstractions, invariants and…
How is Zig considered “90% safe”? It relies on manual memory management, its simple type system provides limited compile-time guarantees and it lacks a mature concurrency model (making safe parallelism difficult). Given…
jorangreef: Could you elaborate on what aspects of Zig made it the preferred choice for TigerBeetle compared to C++? I understand the C type system has limitations. I’m particularly interested as I’ve encountered…
This isn’t intended as flamebait. I’m trying to understand Zig’s long-term positioning and design philosophy. I have serious confusion about the type of problems Zig is aiming to solve. In my view, Zig is not solving…
