Why are we even discussing stuff like work hour expectations in a story about language switch drama?
Even if the guy is a terrible manager this still comes across as a determined attempt to find something negative to say.
To me it’s telling how little focus there is on the technical merits of the rewrite from zig side. Anthropic claimed a bunch of victories and as best as I can tell nobody has even attempted to refute them.
If I was running a project and someone threw it into an LLM rewrite and it comes out with improvements and silence on downsides I’d be pretty worried and try to address that. Instead we’re talking about working hours somehow
