Biggest WTF news I've read today. I'm not a web dev so this doesn't affect me, but this is bizarre.

We get a closer first look at what's around the corner for AI coding tools, and make Bun better for it

This incredibly popular tool is now going to merge with an AI company and shift gears to be turned into some forced AI hype machine. Yipee! Exactly what all the devs were hoping for! /s

I know some, it's such a shame that one of the biggest zig projects suffered this fate, they're also a significant contributor to the zig project

Also kinda ironic that Zig itself takes a very different direction as it has a strict no LLM policy and recently moved from GitHub to Codeberg.
