I think the motion that Claude Code and Anthropic has is trying to force-hide stuff from you. Some hopefully remember the shitstorm that happened, when they changed. Reading xxx.yy to reading 1 file or reading 2 files.

More changes like this came and they were not or very hard to configure. I understand the business idea behind it. Make them to use AI as much as possible, get the human out of the loop. More training data. More Token Usage JUHUU.

However I think that made Claude Code so much worse and so much more untrusthworthy. It’s a sneaky attempt to take away the driving wheel from you. And if you follow that logic, way more and way more things seem reasonable.

But mainly for now it just generated a lot of distrust for me

Nothing to worry about anymore, the ship has sailed the moment it was acquired.

Aube[0] seems interesting to me, I have submitted it as show HN after hearing about your post. Its created by the same person who has made mise and I actually discovered it when I was browsing through on mise.en.dev website

I still use bun, but I think that there are some other pathways so I am not that worried about myself personally. But that's also because I most often than not code in golang rather than typescript/javascript

Ugh. I hate these "guilt by association" hit pieces. Nothing is wrong and yet we must signal our virtue.

Might as well just open our pants and wave our wangers, hoping for a better world

What is there to worry about? If we believe AI crowd, Bun and entire JS ecosystem is done for. Dead. Nothing to worry about since nothing's left.

If as claimed everyone and his malnourished cellar rat can whip up a SaaS on a whim, then why that SaaS should be built upon chromium+js+http instead of tcp+native ui?

Remember, choice of ui is no longer a constraint. Nothing is a constraint or so they say.

So it follows that all this javascript stuff can at last die.

vite and it's ecosystem is actually becoming the unified toolchain with vite+. IIRC pnpm will also be the preferred package manager in the tool

I still see no monetization with Bun and Deno to keep them going.

You see this all over the place with other programming languages.

The ones that have bleeding edge features do so, because there are companies, or universities (for their PhD and Msc thesis), that invest into those ecosystems.

In the end nodejs will keep improving, with Microsoft and Google's baking, and that will be it.

Why do people use bun? Would like an answer from an actual experienced / staff tier or higher engineer.

All these complaints about Claude code are mostly resolved if you pay for your usage with direct API pay as you go. It’s not cheap but nearly all the complaints I see about Claude code are due to the fact the subscription plans seem unsustainable from a cost perspective.
