2025-06-09 Zig master builds now with FreeBSD support

In a brief break from looking at Rust things for FreeBSD. While reading A year of funded FreeBSD development, I also glanced through associated orange site comments on it and found an interesting tidbit:

we just added FreeBSD to the download page on ziglang.org (as of today), so FreeBSD users can grab master branch builds automatically built by the CI.

Find it at the download page for Zig's website. I'll get back to more Rust-ey things in future posts as I am still figuring out how to approach experimenting with Zig.
