  Trying to give Servo some money via OpenCollective ... does their site not work with Firefox anymore? It seems impossible to find a way to give them money lol. Not helped by the web interface having the options for developers and contributors all jumbled up together.

  I see a lot of youtube commentator videos from the usual suspects blah blah blah about the "controversy" but (I didn't check, but highly doubt) do any do some simple thing to check the truth of claims about poor code quality, like look at how many github issues when bun was written in zig, how many github issues now code is written in rust I only had a quick glance a week or two ago, but there was a huge number of open issues in the "amazing game-changer, passes all our tests...

  Bandcamp has fired 10 engineers, which sucks, but is that all they have done? Seems an extreme reason to want to leave the platform. If you did not use any service or program that fired somebody then better move to a forest cabin because there's not gonna be anything left.

I found the letter very good; humanity must rid itself of this AI, which defies all divine purpose and is used in evil ways the majority of times. We must be aware of this.

  Questions about pointers: I'm learning a bit of Zig and have never used pointers before (I do understand the general concept of how to use them, that they point to address etc). afaik using pointers is faster than operating on/ looking up the variables themselves? My main confusion (using example below) is, why dereference the pointer with 'ptr.*' in the 3rd line? Why not just plug in the address directly with '&num'? Is that for performance too? Otherwise the code se...
