...Unity made a blog post saying they were happy about you moving to Unreal, publishing they think it'd be a win-win, then outlining why they think so I mean, that makes it all sound very polite and dispassionate, but Andrew's piece was anything but. I have no dog in this fight, I don't use Zig, Rust, Bun or Claude, and initially I thought the bun rewrite sounded like a terrible idea. I changed my mind after reading the piece about the migration - it was very interesting and the process was obviously quite thoughtful. Andrew's piece made me want to take a shower afterwards.

  And what is even the point of saying that Andrew dislikes how Jarred acts and works? Let's say the supervisor wants you to write a new microservice. Do you refuse to do it because the supervisor smokes cigarettes and you're an anti-smoker? I think that if you have objections, you should refuse only on technical grounds, not personal.

  Here are the highlights of the supposed "they work in a way I don't like" disagreement: > I described him as someone who had strong "beginner energy" > groomed from a young age into uncritically embracing the Silicon Valley mindset > Jarred was a stinky manager. Poor communication, unrealistic expectations, low empathy, no experience. Just a total shit show > We became increasingly horrified at the programming practices we saw in Bun's codebase. Hacks on top of hacks > Jarred was already writing slop well before he had access to LLMs > While I resent Jarred for making Bun into an embarassment for Zig

  >talked about what they didn't like with how Jarred acted and worked Gossip and hearsay; the "grapevine". Besides, what does it matter how a language user does business?
