There are many things I'd like to help improve in Zig. But the Language Proposals page makes me hesitant to contribute at all:
Please do not file a proposal to change the languageThank you for your interest in improving the Zig language. However, we are not accepting new proposals to change the language.
If you wish to make a language proposal, you must convince a Zig core team member to file it on your behalf and champion it. Some are paid contractors and some are volunteers, and they all freely choose how to spend their time. A core team member may be willing to champion proposals, or maybe not, at their discretion. Please do not harass Zig core team members.

Od té doby si dávám pozor, jakou klávesnici používám.
Softwarové klávesnice na Androidu
Softwarové klávesnice v mobilu jsou něco, co jsem doteď vůbec neřešil. Používal jsem to, co bylo na daném telefonu jako výchozí. Nicméně když si uvědomíte, že přes ně jde vše, co na mobilu napíšete, rozhodně stojí za trochu pozornosti.Sesivany's blog
Enjoy writing fiction in Markdown, and prefer keeping ownership of your files in the filesystem, but still want beautiful ePub3 ebooks and paperback output? Your uncle Matt feels the same way!
I created a configuration and example project for pandoc, the fab #FOSS markup converter, to produce beautiful novels from your folders full of Markdown files. Lots of booky, novel-y, typographical/layout niceness. I'll be using this with #emacs. 💜

Nix surprises me again. And you can make any type of image you want... digitalocean, ec2, hyperv, vmware, etc. Its nuts:
