Zig vs Rust in 2026

If anyone wants to recruit a senior R&D code monkey with multiple degrees for a job that will involve neither "AI" bullshit nor "blockchain" bullshit nor "HFT" bullshit nor killing people nor destroying the planet just for the heck of it...

I get cheaper and cheaper by the minute as things descend deeper and deeper into nutty "More cloud and more AI will fix it!!" chaos around me.

Located in Germany. Will only work remote as we're tied to this place due to aging parental units. Strong preference for something related to actual green technology such as solar.

Syntax matters more than emotionally:
Syntax affects how expressive a language is.
Syntax affects editing and navigation capabilities (to illustrate, consider Emacs commands like `forward-list', `forward-sexp', `kill-backward-up-list', and then compare their usefulness between Lisp and Python).
Syntax affects cultural compatibility, the significance of which is much more than emotional.
Etc.

I have thought about it and decided that all I should demand of the reference variables in hiha is that, at any given point, they match in name and to what they refer.

Thus all the stuff I said earlier about appending incremented numbers to variable names is probably now null and void...
