Claude Code uses bun.
- christkv 3mo agoYeah I get they use it but I don't understand why you would buy it. it's just the runtime for code that makes up the agent.
- steveklabnik 3mo agoBun was a startup. Startups can go out of business, and then you are now scrambling to move your code to something else. They could also be bought by someone who has different priorities regarding future development than you, and that's also a risk. The simplest solution to these problems, if you have the capital, is to buy them.
- christkv 3mo agoI get that but there is always node.js
- steveklabnik 3mo agoThey aren't exactly the same thing, moving to node would be possible but bun does more than node, so you need to replace the whole thing.
- christkv 3mo agoOh for sure. I guess its just as much a Acqui-hire as well as for the tech.
