Yes. The author is a Zig Foundation guy, the reference implementation is in Zig, and the syntax borrows from Zig.

As someone whose name is Zigfrid, I find it amusing to see first Zig, now Ziggy, in the software world :)

This seems very interesting, but the resource-hour pricing is a total nonstarter. You're incentivizing me to use as little of your product as possible. You want me to pay for every bucket file, every role assignment, every verification record?

Charge per user or a percentage of cloud spend under management.

Does Quiet Light require in the contract that you write a glowing blog post and post it to HackerNews? I keep seeing stories in this genre, and they all used QuietLight.

I don't fully understand this genre of stories because they sound rather braggadocio, yet they never mention the sale amount.

Probably they do, but also the main page looks like spam instead of a blog.

When Cloudflare Workers launched, they said V8 isolates had some great properties for serverless-style compute:

5 ms cold starts vs 500+ ms for containers

3 MB memory vs 35 MB for a similar container

No context switch between different tenants' code

No virtualization overhead

I'm sure these numbers would be different today, for instance with Firecracker, but there's probably still a memory and/or cold start advantage to V8 isolates.

But in this case, it's running PHP, which doesn't have a long-running model, it always cold starts, and it does so really fast natively. I can't see how it could be faster in WASM.

I mean, this was pretty embarrassing. Seems like poor judgment. https://www.theverge.com/2016/11/23/13739026/reddit-ceo-stev...
