   How is Zig doing as a project? I remember they took a hard line against AI

      It looks like they're spending 5 months what should be a 1 month job these days.

         Filed a compiler bug related to dwarf tables that screws up debugging and line of code coverage that they completely ignored, just because I mentioned that I had every LLM check it to confirm it's a bug, since all I know is what kcov and every coverage tool generates incorrect coverage data for my repo, for 100% certain.

            Sounds like you violated the clearly stated project rules and admitted to it. Are you surprised that they're not engaging with you?

               Reading their comment it sounds like they wanted to confirm the bug existed with AI, not sure they ever said they had AI write the code. Why have such a dumb policy?
