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 mean, technically yes.

But mega corpos have so much money to throw at you that at one point, it's hard to say no and very few people can refuse.

It is generational wealth that is being offered to the shareholders. I know I would fold.
