SPA’s tend to require more network round trips, sometimes significantly more based on the architecture.

It would be nonsense of course, but it’s a tale that seems to work for a significant number of readers here.

If you're sincere then I'm afraid you're being led on by the lazy.

When tasked with translating a document, unless instructed otherwise, the LLM does not inject its own cliched stories, narrative structures and assorted engagement tricks.

Did you feel the same way about 5.5? The same general sentiment keeps being expressed with every model release. The prior generation is immediately cast aside with a vague “well yes, actually we didn’t mean it last time” attitude.

I think I even heard Theo the T3 guy suggesting that his work comes to halt if he can’t use the latest generation model, despite heaping significant praise on each generation previous and suggesting it does all of his programming tasks.

The boundless energy with which each model generation is said to be revolutionary and leaving everyone behind is tiresome even when incremental progress is real and measurable.

> What is the governance structure for Bun by the way? Couldn't find any documents/explanations about how it's supposed to work. I'm guessing it's essentially just "Anthropic decides what gets done and accepted" today?

And this is a valid question. You are not "defending reality" by refusing to listen to it.

In summary and based solely on my understanding:

- Jared misled people about the intentions of the migration. It's not the worst thing in the world, but it's certainly worthy of criticism.

- Jared has commented before about locking out human contributors from open source projects. Whether he was making a larger point is irrelevant as his comment stands on its own.

- Other Bun contributors, past and future, outside of those employed by Anthropic, did not and likely will not have equal access to the model Jared used for the rewrite.

Jared, working in the public Bun repository, used tooling not available to his community to experiment with a signficant migration. He dismissed all concerns and told people it's just a bit of fun, and that it shouldn't be taken seriously. Most of the controversy would have been avoided were the experiment done in private.

None of this is a big scandal but questions about the project are entirely justified.

The only sloppy aspects that stand out to me are the needless animations/transitions.

Nothing has changed at the level of computation either, hardware speaks the same vocabulary and of electrical signals as ever.

Could you describe the change you are observing?

However, I do feel internet communities were better when they were smaller due to being special interest driven and self-policing. People wore different hats according to the community they were engaging with.

Why not use BaseUI directly?
