This was pre-Anthropic but the fact that Bun automatically loads .env files if they're present almost disqualifies it from most tasks https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/issues/23967
It makes it hard to take them too seriously with such a design choice - a footgun really. It's so easy to accidentally load secrets via environment variables, with no way to disable this anti-feature.
Best case is they throw their endless amount of paper at it without touching it. At least something useful comes out of this AI crap then. One can dream.
Deno is solid. Or just use nodejs, it got many of the features deno/bun originally shipped with. No matter how you slice it, node is still the defacto server side JS runtime.

About the same, regardless, truth usually sits somewhere in the middle :)

No harm no foul then, "it's been flawless for me" certainly gave me a different impression, but I guess as long as we all find the tools that work for us.
This is pretty cool. My bet is that we have more LLMs running locally when its possible, either thru "better hardware as default" or some new tech that can run the models on commodity hardware (like apple silicon / equivalent PC setup).
We use Haxe for a legacy PHP app. Its our secret weapon, im amazed why more PHP devs dont use Haxe, as its basically a better version of what typescript is to javascript.
We get all the bells and whistles, and a familiar feel, most new devs are up and running in a week with Haxe.
Compile times are instant, and tooling is good (lsp/testing/etc). LLMs also know Hace quite well as its an old language.
YT made sure adblockers ruin the experience. We really need a good YT alternative, as it has become AI slop (shorts) and most new videos are of real poor quality.
Been running Berkeley Mono for years. Before that i flipped fonts and theme like every week. I sometimes wish you could not change font or color theme at all.
I can sympathize; I shudder to think of how many total hours of my life I've spent tweaking fonts in my text editors.
That said, these days I almost exclusively use Input Mono [0], specifically the "Narrow" variety. With an occasional sprinkling of either Iosevka Fixed or PragmataPro Mono.
Most dont want that slop in their code. I have no issues with just writing the code myself. The "typing code" was never a bottleneck, and AI wont help for the real bottlenecks you have in an business setting.
But i could dump my thing and go for this just as well.
Is this hand crafted? Or LLM generated?
Whats the milestone for a 1.0?
Whats left to develop / what needs improvement?
Tooling? Probably need a LSP and some basic syntax highlighting for the common editors like neovim/vscode.
Good job, i will def give this a test run next week!
