An excellent analysis. So the Bun rewrite story is full of contradictions, irrationality, and bullshit. Not that that's really a surprise at this point.

I suspect they were attempting to move it away from the open market into government contracts where they would have been able to charge more than what the open market would bear.

Be warned that the headline is neither sarcastic nor even ironic. That's all you need to know about this post. Don't waste your time with it.

If unclogging the sewers is a way how the deluge of AI slop can create new work, then more power to you! It's one more element that makes it even harder to write satire that is more absurd than reality.

Who knew that my decision to not own a car would turn out to be so prescient. That I can still be killed by a driver distracted by the anti-distraction feature is just the usual irony of existence.

That's just sick. If I had to review 37k LoC per day, my brain would vaporize. But the point probably is that nobody ever looks at that code.

And the US isn't going to comply either. Just like it never recognized the International Criminal Court in The Hague. In that respect it's at least as bad as China.

macOS Sonoma is so unstable (on x64 anyway), just leaving it running without doing anything will mess it up eventually, so restarts force themselves in a way. My Linux laptop at least has system updates as the reason for restarts.
