zig

Zig 0.16.0 released April 14 with a mandatory I/O interface that eliminates function coloring, a 30,000-line type resolution redesign, and millisecond incremental builds.

R hit #8 in the TIOBE Index — matching its all-time high — as Python and R emerge as the two survivors in a rapidly consolidating statistical language market, while Go fell to #16 and Zig crept toward the top 30.

Zig 0.16.0 approaches general availability with async I/O redesigned from scratch, using an injected Io interface that lets the same code run on thread pools or event loops without recompilation.
