I do think the `build.zig` code, and maybe a link to the entire project would be relevant. As it stands, I don't think anybody can reproduce this specific issue to...

`@ptrCast` directly casts the pointer without checking the validity of the pointed-to elements ("pointees"). There are types with invalid bit representations, for instance if a `*u1` points to a byte...

I think it would make sense to explicitly document that `@ptrCast` does not include this assertion [in the langref section for `@ptrCast`](https://ziglang.org/documentation/master/#ptrCast), and maybe also [the section for sentinel-terminated slices/slicing](https://ziglang.org/documentation/master/#Sentinel-Terminated-Slices)....

`conotate` is (from what I can find online) a misspelling of the word [`connotate`](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/connotate). As for my two cents, I'd be perfectly happy with that name, as I think it...

Not sure how complete documentation is (I assume you mean langref). In status-quo, a `packed struct` is treated as a single integer that concatenates its fields' bits starting from the...

somewhat related: https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/20349 (just wanted to link it so one isn't overlooked)

I personally really like the completeness of the current interface. The same can be provided by userland code, however that needs to be kept up-to-date with the compiler. Putting it...

@InKryption (long text with individual replies) > I don't think completeness for the sake of completeness is really that great Well, okay, that sounds like a difference in preference/perspective. An...

No insight on the particulars of read-only mounts, but I assume they could be un-mounted and then re-mounted with different data while the program is running? That could either be...

I think "Warte" is appropriate, I've heard it used this way before. The noun "maintenance" is also generally translated as corresponding "Wartung". (In terms of more liberal translations, "Pflege" as...
