I remember the uber db migration post and I can't help but wonder if the tone of these conversations would be different for bun if AI wasn't involved.

Another point of view is that, if AI wasn't available, pre-port Bun wouldn't have been such a total mess that even Fable couldn't unfuck it.

IOW, the Bun codebase was being vibed well before the port; if AI was not available, would Bun have been in such a poor state that a rewrite was even necessary?

The AI panic has infiltrated the space now, and it’s just as bad as the AI hype. Half formed ideas, emotional posts with personal attacks and arrogant language, exaggerated claims, posturing, etc.

In the meantime, most of us are just using whatever tools are at our disposal and minding our own business.
