Well, printf flushes when \n is encountered. Does zig have something similar?

I think when people mention generics, they don’t mean builtins from the language but a language construct for generics.

C# was meant to have generics in day one, but it didn’t make the cut and it was introduced on the next version (2.0)

Funny enough, in their both latest versions. C# AOT has a smaller runtime than Go one

This must be an online thing. In 15+ years of career I haven't yet heard "real software engineer...". If you get your work done no one cares how the hell you accomplish it

I guess I should have been more specific. I'm not a fan of fields all being public

Go changed something, not sure if 20 or 21, where it will download the Go compiler of all your third-party which don’t match yours. It slows things down.
