Bun and the Rust pre-release have continued to be open source; the pre-release isn’t exclusive to Claude Code but available to anyone to download and use. There hasn’t been any public motion to indicate they may close source anytime soon. This FUD is so easily fact-checkable that I’m genuinely confused at how it caught on

Well i was mostly talking about the "handing over to a non-profit" control parts. Not the release.

but since you said so, could you link me to the release / tag on github? I don't think they've put it out yet?

Maybe they won't change licenses, but Bun now feels more like SQLite as in "source code available" kinda open source, than the "come build with us, community first" kind that i think used to be classified on at least for me mentally.

No horse in this race, just pattern matching as we meatbags love to do.

Idc about the downvoting i can take a bit of heat on my fake internet points

I'd start with some German guy calling native Canadians who are actively civically engaged "useful idiots" and his suggestion that the unemployed and retried shouldn't have a voice in their community.

I don't see him making that suggestion. It's pithy so it's hard to really pin down a meaning to the tweet but I think he's saying that these town sessions aren't a meaningful expression of democracy because only a specific section of society is in attendance and one that may not understand key issues relevant to working or young people.

Flashback to when Mitchell first introduce Vagrant [1] to HN, which of course was the how everything from HashiCorp started. I thought it was't that long ago, may be 8, or at best 10-12 years. Turns out 16 years has passed. Curious if it would be another project using Zig. [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1175901

Considering it's going to consume libghostty, I'm betting it'll be Zig.

libghostty exports a C ABI. For an application from Mitch at this layer I would guess Go.

> I’m genuinely confused at how it caught on Probably because they said AI rewrote it in 11 days, yet haven't cut a release almost 2 months later. If their AI finished it, where's the release? They ported enough of it to run a single app (Claude Code). Good job. But if I ported Linux to Rust and it was only capable of running a single app, should I be able say it was a complete port? We'd all agree that was misleadin…

> If their AI finished it, where's the release?

Producing a stable release for their community of code that had been written by AI in 11 days and had not yet been extensively tested in the real world would be grossly irresponsible.

Instead, they made the AI rewrite available as a canary release and shipped it for a month as part of Claude Code to millions of their own users.

VCs tend to be a toxic bunch. Hard to avoid that in our business

in this case mitchell is an exited founder with a net worth of over $1B so he can be choosier than almost anyone in this regard. Deeply disappointing he is taking money from Guillermo

Calling people "useful idiots" is pithy?

https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/releases/tag/canary

(I'm not a fan of how they reuse that single tag rather than putting out version-numbered alphas, but they do at least update the description to include the commit hash - "canary" is basically a pointer to the most recent commit hash that they have judged worthy of distributing to their canary users.)

I feel like the main benefit of such a thing would be centralization. Part of the issue with the terminal ecosystem is precisely that everything's so fragmented and everybody needs to support arcane terminal protocols and wrap a billion wrappers around each other. The easiest way to solve this is to be a definer yourself rather than an integrator, which I think is what this is trying to be. If we could actually have…

Right, but I'm pretty sure this is not the first time somebody thought about solving it.
