In isolation, yes, that does seem like it would have been the better decision for Claude Code, but it also would have severely diminished the value of their Bun/oven.sh acquisition. Claude Code isn't the only user of Bun (it'

Even accepting your premise your options are still either: 1) Don't participate (and accept the consequences) 2) Participate (and accept potential disappointment/failure, with the benefit of having tried) If you view 2) as fruitle

I, too, rely on your web of trust, please don't ever break my heart Jeff! It makes sense they'd be harder to find, I imagine there are more opportunities to make money by selling your soul than by offering honest review, and peopl

I wish I'd heard about it when it was first published, it is super cool! Especially the timeline, given that it predates things like ts_zip/LLMZip (which is why I figured someone had already worked on something in the area), while

Anyone else having issues exporting their data from ChatGPT? I started my export in the morning, still have yet to receive an email for the download. Wanted to make sure my deleted account was included in the beans when they count them on M

Cool project, great work! Forgive the uninformed questions, but given that `workerd` ( https://github.com/cloudflare/workerd ) is "open-source" (in terms of the runtime itself, less so the deployment model), is
