How are you deciding that either of these things worked out fine

Well if you ignore all the issues and declare victory, I think you’ll find it’s possible to decide anything is fine.

  I really am curious about the issues that I'm ignoring twitter was a dumpster fire before and now it is (to me) less of a dumpster fire. so far it seems like the bun rewrite is going quite well. I haven't found any major issues since the merge despite, robobun being the top committer in the repo.

bun has lesser memory issues, more bug fixes shipped than ever before. same happening across the board with chrome, mozilla etc. twitter has (irrespective of the political turmoil etc.) purely as a technical product added more users, more features etc. to me that seems like it worked out fine.

  You're celebrating Bun 1.4 on literally day one. I'd suggest waiting for it to hit prod. irrespective of the political turmoil etc Quite the hand-wave!

    claude code uses bun written rust. and it has been in prod for a month or so. I am finding it hard not to celebrate because it was quite literally a +1M -4K line change that is touching people today. > irrespective of the political turmoil. I was mostly concerned with the technical perspective of firing 80% of people by stack ranking. the consensus in HN at the time was that twitter had months left before all production systems burn down, because all the organizational knowledge has left. but seems like firing 80% went just fine for them. which I find fascinating.
