Ok, is it just me or is Andrew Kelley a one-person, prodigy coding machine? I’ve been following Zig’s development for a few years now and the technical wizardry he’s gone through to develop a powerful, innovative language that is self hosted, challenges all the new systems languages out there, compiles C and supports magical cross compilation is just mind blowing to me.<p>Thanks Andrew for pushing the boundaries and rethinking what can be possible with modern tooling.<p>I highly recommend people to watch his live streams. Excellent stuff.
I once helped an engineer to bring up a custom board running an AMD 286 ... it had a strip of LED's which our boot loader would trigger at various points while it initialized the various bits.<p>No LED meant it was time to bring out the oscilloscope.
