Bun now has a rule for github actions to chastise robobun if it leaves a long comment: "If you need a paragraph-long comment to justify why the workaround is OK, the code is wrong …

Jarred from Bun is in this comment section saying the rewrite isn't finished yet. I therefore don't consider it a failure or a success. I'll be keen to see how much the CI cost tho…

"Let them eat cake!"

Personally I think the cost does matter.

Yeah if you want you can check out my github page to see some tool failures. Nobody is hyping those up, though.

You've got my blessing. I think given how mistaken I am, it should be quite an engaging article.

It isn't clear to me that the price is worth it.

Author here: Exactly. I had a funny thought that Bun might add a release tag while I was still writing the article. In that case I'd still publish it, because the point is we still…

Please feel free to write an article that corrects my mistakes.

I link to Jarred's writeup on bun.com, where you'll note he mentions that its being used on Prisma and Claude Code. I don't agree that using something in a very specific environmen…

Author here: I don't need or want another Bun release or an NPM release or anything like that. Like I very clearly say in the article I just got chatting with a peer about the Bun …

Ohhhhh for a world where that's peanuts for an open source project.

That's absolutely correct!

> I am none the wiser about how it's going. You and me both friend!

More proof that it was written by a human!!!

Author here: I'm also not sure how much we can glean from any of that!!! I look forward to Anthropic or Bun releasing a retrospective after their next release that fully outlines t…

Not sure! I cludged together a counter using git log. I could go back and redo it but I think the number would serve my point either way.

Author here: An apology on the graphs, they just count rust files touched in commits, not total commits. So if there were two commits and one touched 3 .rs files and another touche…
