<p>Probably because node imcompat / fresh start wasn't the only key differentiator for them?? Bun also had/has (in context of a leg up over node and similar to deno):<p>- typescript support
- built in linting
- built in package manager command
- built in transpiler/bundler</p>

Well I'd still keep an eye on it but trust OSS OS engineers to have some competence at knowing if this works and adjusting the policy later if it proved to be wrong.</p>

<p>Yes yes yes, we know. Git is decentralised, you can just trivially push* anywhere!<p>* - the code. Just the code. only the code. Nothing but the code.
You don't need the issues, the roadmap, the ACL of which human can do what, the API access keys for third parties, the artifact repos. Just. The. Code.<p>Somewhat arsey in my tone? Yeah. But having done two large scale (100+ repos) forge migrations of our company's client projects (SVN -> github, then later on github -> bitbucket) and seeing people completely ignore the metadata surrounding the code that isn't as easy to "just push" anywhere, somewhat justified.</p>

<p>Because those people see the phrase "AI features" and the first thought is those sloppy generative AI stuff where things shift.<p>Where as marketing at all these corporation is trying to genericize "AI features" into anything using an algorithm. 
"Content aware fill", something we've had for over a decade is now "AI object removal"<p>"Noise suppression" is "AI voice extraction"<p>Motion unblur is now "AI motion unblur".</p>

<p>Does the UI atleast hint there's hidden files or is it only by going to the filters you can find this out?<p>It seems incredibly stupid for a BACKUP PROGRAM to not list the hidden files instead of indicating they're hidden (e.g. _(hidden)_.git)</p>

<p>That's more a case of providing the distinct "APIs" ( bzip2 , gunzip etc) to userland / scripts, while the implementation for all is just one binary; than it being "Configuration via name..."<p>Somewhat similar to how busybox does its thing.</p>

<p>Jumped back to it to try seeing how functional it'd be as something more than than large logfile explorer.<p>Package control is still only in the command palette. If you want to explore what's on offer you have to do so on the actual package control site.<p>Managed to get LSP + intelephense installed so I have good PHP parsing (Other LSP providers appear to be available)... but stuck at the moment trying to get an intellisense analogue setup... Doesn't show up in package control in the program despite showing up on the site.<p>So right now I have syntax highlighting and errors flagged for a php file... but I don't have anything that can take the fact the class is missing several methods from the interfaces, and stub them out in a few keystrokes.</p>

<p>It's not which duplicated instance....<p>Think of it as I have two packs for levels.<p>Creek.level and roboplanet.level<p>Both use the cyborg enemies, by duplicating the cyborg enemy model and texture data across both files, Only the level file needs to be opened to get all nessecary data for a match.<p>Because modern OS will allow you to preallocate contiguous segments and have auto defrag, you can have it read this level file at max speed, rather than having to stop and seek to go find cyborg.model file because it was referenced by the spawn pool. Engine limitations may prevent other optimisations you think up as a thought exercise after reading this.<p>It's similar to how crash bandicoot packed their level data to handle the slow speed of the ps1 disc drive.<p>As to why they had a HDD optimisation in 2024... <i>Shrugs</i></p>

<p>You can still write php 5-esque slop and have it run... mostly (some particulars like the half dozen ways of interpolating a variable into a string have been paired down, some extensions left in the dustbin, but the fundamental "shit out a script and run it" capability still remains doable).<p>non of the "modern" things are particularly taxing to teach someone with more than two braincells. If they don't understand them then they haven't kept up with ANY programming trends in the past decade and are best placed infront of the TV with an iPad than left to mess with the possible critical infrastructure of a business.</p>
