alt Hacker News> Is your claim that using Zig ends in an "extremely high amount of crashes/memory bugs?" Wouldn't that mean that it isn't even feasible to make high-quality software with such a tool?
What caused you to hallucinate such a broad blanket statement? The point is the memory unsafety issues they ran into would be categorically impossible in safe Rust, which is why they're doing this in the first place.

You know, I try to ask questions rather than making assertions in order to better my chances at provoking useful thought and conversation.
It's not hallucination, it's a basic extrapolation. "Bun has had an extremely high amount of crashes/memory bugs due to them using Zig" is the same statement as "using Zig resulted in Bun having an extremely high amount of crashes/memory bugs". It is then natural to ask whether their position is "using Zig results in an extremely high amount of crashes/bugs" in general.
