One difference between programmer and engineer is that the programmer worries about what they do, while the engineer worries about not only about what they do, but about the platform their application run.
And you bringing the fringe entertainers of the illiterate Americans is totally unnecessary.
- potsandpans 4mo agoYou're just speaking in truisms, and still have yet to assert anything at all. You sound more like a fringe entertainer and less like an engineer. You're, "just asking questions." Are you an engineer? Make clear claims, and then back then up crisp and concrete arguments. Support your arguments with data. That's engineering. What you're doing is wallowing in the outrage machine. Please start with your indepth understanding of the bun runtime that qualifies you to comment on the overall quality claims that you have not yet made but have insinuated. Please clearly cite your concerns. Please present a cogent and articulate analysis of the overall shortcomings, gaps and potential threats of the bun rewrite. Let's have an engineering discussion.
- soraminazuki 4mo agoPractice what you preach. Because committing 1 million lines of unreviewed code is by definition not "engineering," and every single accusation you're making is the one you're guilty of. And while you're at it, make your own argument. That's a skill required of any engineer.

- elnatro 4mo agoLet’s have an engineering discussion? I am not the one that brought up Tucker Carlson to the conversation. The maintainers have merged an enormous pull request in a week. They haven’t shown signs of understanding Rust. They are doing an experiment that can affect (via runtime bugs) to all bun users.

- elnatro 4mo agoI already told you two points, your rebukes are that “I’m not a software engineer”. That says more about you than about me.
- potsandpans 4mo agoYou just continue to talk with a lack of precision that is demonstrative of general unseriousness and cannot seem to cope with the idea of someone doing the same thing to you, that you are doing to other hardworking people. I gave you the chance to rebuke essentially, "would you trust some random insinuations by a potentially unqualified person on the internet ginning up support for some thing that they do not understand?" You will note that I have never once said that you are not a software engineer. Instead I've given you the opportunity for you to defend yourself _as_ a software engineer. And mostly commented this far that you have displayed a general lack of understanding. The arguments that you have presented lack quality and merit. The onus is on you to present the reason we should listen to whatever it is you're saying about Bun. If you are a software engineer, you are not doing a good job of representing yourself as one. Which is what I'm asking you to do, albeit in an aggressive manner: defend your position if you feel so strongly. It's good for upvotes on hackernews though. You don't need substance. Just ride the wave of vitriol.
