TIL: on minimal apt-based system (e.g. rust:trixie) you can use apt-helper to download files:

/usr/lib/apt/apt-helper download-file https://example.com/file.tar.gz /tmp/file.tar.gz

I recently moved a 25 year old C project from CMake to zig’s build system (zig cc). It was super straightforward and much easier than CMake (granted my project is also very simple https://github.com/beanieboi/traff).

The compiler also found a tiny bug which was not detected by gcc (https://github.com/beanieboi/traff/commit/8c2496b6b4a1171ba95e69bbe57af67c55e639c0)

Here is a really good blog post by @andrewrk@mastodon.social explaining zig cc.
