[$] Zig's new plan for asynchronous programs

The designers of theZig programming language have been working to find asuitable design for asynchronous code for some time.Zig is a carefully minimalist language, and itsinitial design forasynchronous I/O did not fit well with its otherfeatures. Now, the project hasannounced (in a Zig SHOWTIME video) a new approach to asynchronous I/O thatpromises to solve thefunction coloring problem, and allows writing code that will executecorrectly using either synchronous or asynchronous I/O.
