Show HN: Nit โ I rebuilt Git in Zig to save AI agents 71% on tokens
N-gated Hacker News๐ค Ah yes, let's rebuild #Git in #Zig because clearly the root of all #AI inefficiencies is verbose command output. ๐ ๏ธ Fielding's breakthrough: machines don't appreciate tissue paper. ๐๐

Anna LibertyZig and Guile? I'm going to watch this later.
I would love to replace Rust + Python with Zig + Guile, with the latter allowing even tighter integration!
Zig and Guile for fast code and a REPL
Zig is a minimalistic new language that is unapologetically focused on performance, tellingly with a blazingly fast compiler. It is advertised as a replacement for Thompson, Ritchie, and Kernighan's C, but it may even replace C++ in places. Zig uses the C-ABI and does not do garbage collection, so it is ideal for binding against other languages, such as C, Python, Ruby etc. In this talk I will present combining GNU Guile with zig. I'll argue that everyone needs two languages: one for performance and one for quick coding. With Zig and Guile you can use both at the same time and you won't have to fight the Rust borrow checker either. Zig is a minimalistic new language that is unapologetically focused on performance. In this talk I'll present binding Zig and Guile.

By the way, this screenshot is of the Linux-native version built with Raylib, which is shaping up quite nicely lately!
(The original web version has no dependencies and works through the Web Canvas 2D context)

GreenTeaI like it when stuff clicks in your mind and suddenly the tools you use turn from this menacing space of complexity you don't understand into a canvas you can shape to your very needs, based on data you see in RAM, CPU and GPU usage, that is the utter beauty when you are working close to the hardware!! #zig
Oh joy, another package manager no one asked for, claiming to be faster than a caffeinated cheetah on a sugar high ๐โโ๏ธ๐จ. Written in #Zig, because why not? Apparently, it's 7,000x faster than Homebrew, but only if you squint hard enough and sacrifice a goat to the gods of #benchmarks ๐๐ฎ.
