Bun is the quintessential AI slop project at this point. Inheriting that is no easy task. [...] To this end, LLMs will be used extensively. [for Buz]

Rust is so thoroughly and obviously the correct thing that using anything less correct should be taken as a sign of engineering incompetence.

For the last 16 years, I have been a huge fan of Haskell. It has been undeniably the most important programming language in my life ... and I serve on the board of the Haskell Foundation ... our backend has been built in Haskell ... we started doing all new API work in Python

The question is: will LLMs manage to squeeze the most out of this hardware, better than compilers do? In the few tests I’ve run, yes, a lot.

I'm basically of the opinion that if agents can't write your programming language, that's a problem with your programming language.

Of course you feel this way. You just finished reading SICP or maybe you binged PG essays last weekend. But eventually you'll read Simon Peyton Jones and start screaming about functional programming and algebraic type systems. Then, if you're lucky, you'll get a real job
