* Spend God knows how many dollars in unlimited tokens to do the rewrite
* Make a huge deal out of it how “Claude Code enabled Bun team to rewrite 1+ mil of Zig lines to Rust” and write a blogpost, VCs are salivating
* Basic checks fail
* Let Mythos rip the codebase to shreds, spend God knows how much more
* Write a separate blogpost
* Charlatans and smooth brains clap and defend against “delusional anti-AI mob”
* VCs orgasm even harder
Clap, clap, clap. That’s how you make money, folks.
And btw, we need to get rid of software engineers now.
They didn't make a huge deal about it though. I distinctly remember Jarred coming on here just last week to say stop making a big deal about it.
What counts as "a huge deal"?
I mean, the phrase "Zig to Rust port of Bun" makes little sense even to many professional developers. They may know Rust, might have heard of Zig, very likely don't know what Bun is.
So the fact that this gets any attention at all says something.
And how is the Bun team supposed to work on a million lines of slop rust code?
Just like how they did the rewrite. It is not longer a small OSS team trying to survive in the world, it's a corporate entity with unlimited access to Anthropic resources. All the doomsayers who were prophesying that Bun will become sellout were right.
