Zero is a programming language for agents. Zero: Native is a WebKit Desktop Framework (not native) with a backend in Zig (not Zero) which is famously anti agentic. I know naming is hard but Vercel, please, I’m begging you.

@dreamsofcode_io There's also agent zero... and mail zero... the list goes on and on

@dreamsofcode_io Fair. zero-native came first but the goal is to consolidate once Zero is stable

@dreamsofcode_io i work for a cloud company called zerops. now imagine the mess

@dreamsofcode_io Zero looks like java or my brain isnt functioning

@dreamsofcode_io It took me 6 months to name Ultraviolet. i have a literal document with hundreds of options. Naming stuff is either instantaneous or grueling, with nothing in between. ultraviolet-lang.org

@dreamsofcode_io There is also zero by rocicorp. Great system

@dreamsofcode_io Lol was interested when I saw the headlines until I realized the "Zero" is actually zero native part 🫠

@dreamsofcode_io When you are trying to get that niche so hard, but you have no fucking clue what you are doing. Lmao.

@dreamsofcode_io I wouldn't worry about at all. That language is not going to get adopted lol. The guy at Vercel made it in 3 days. I said this somewhere else, its like he completed a tutorial on compilers and decided to make an announcement about a new lang. Its an unproven toy.

@dreamsofcode_io I just asked my boy opus whats his opinion on Zero and he said he never heard of it.

@dreamsofcode_io It’s okay. Nobody is going to use this for more than a few months.

@dreamsofcode_io I guess they wanted to name it after the value this new "language" adds to the world. I so want the bubble to pop.

@dreamsofcode_io From terrible naming scheme, to terrible lying product release

@dreamsofcode_io V zero

@dreamsofcode_io Maybe consider renaming it to avoid confusion.

@dreamsofcode_io @aboodman time to DMCA

@dreamsofcode_io Also a really sweet sync engine zero.rocicorp.dev
