Biggest WTF news I've read today. I'm not a web dev so this doesn't affect me, but this is bizarre.

We get a closer first look at what's around the corner for AI coding tools, and make Bun better for it

This incredibly popular tool is now going to merge with an AI company and shift gears to be turned into some forced AI hype machine. Yipee! Exactly what all the devs were hoping for! /s

Man, Bun's great, I've been using it since 1.0.0 essentially so that REALLY sucks

Like some of the other people commentating on this thread, I'll look into using something else, but it's really sad and frustrating that I need to switch things over and over again

Yeah but why feed the beast?

Does it feed more beasts then using github in general does?

[–] PokerChips@programming.dev 1 points 1 week ago

Use codeberg where possible

This would consume the beast’s resources
