It is great accomplishment for ruff the project. But the topic here is the launch of Astral the company, not ruff the project. And 1000x speed increase is not a business plan.
- sfink 4y agoMeh. Fair point, but that isn't the only topic being discussed. And when the topic is whether ruff the tool is worthwhile, the discussion is more a pile of complaints. I agree that the topic you're describing, and that is suggested by the URL posted, are worth talking about. It makes me nervous to invest time into a VC-backed linter. Though it seems useful enough to be forkable if things go sour. "VC-backed linter" is a bizarre phrase, though honestly I think you could have described something like Purify in Ye Olden Days as a linter, and it was worth spending money on. (And the issues with being VC-backed go well beyond simply being whether or not something is worth spending money on.)
