<p>I haven't heard that number before and I'm actually impressed.<p>For a file-by-file close to literal translation of a memory-unsafe language to Rust, isn't that pretty good?<p>I was expecting the post-rewrite Bun's unsafe usages to be in the order of magnitude of C2Rust (<a href="https://c2rust.com/" rel="nofollow">https://c2rust.com/</a>). I was _not_ expecting it to be in the same ballpark as hand-written Rust.</p>

<p>What would be a better way to incorporate AI as a spell checker?<p>In comparison to non-AI traditional tools, AI has the advantage of "understanding" the text, reducing the number of "stupid" mis-corrections. And its spelling correctness is usually already impeccable, so what is there to gain by interfacing it with traditional solutions, and how can it be achieved?</p>

<p>The "frontend skills" whose growing irrelevance are bemoaned in this article consist largely of navigating a minefield of unintuitive edge cases, browser incompatibilities, historic baggage, exceptions to exceptions to exceptions.<p>Modern frontend, or the "tower of leaky abstractions", is finally a common-sense mental model for web development. Supplanted by force on top of an exploding bag of eccentricities that is web standards and conventions. The fact that it works at all and is merely a little leaky is an accomplishment in itself.</p>

<p>To be fair, the culprit in the article is _less complex_ than branch prediction: "with random data, bits are flipped often, and bit flips in transistors inherently draw power" is less mental gymnastics than "with random data, the cpu fails to predict the future, causing redundant speculative execution"</p>
