> Vibe-coded projects get bought by vibe-coded companies this is so far from the truth. Bun, Zig, and uWebsockets are passion projects run by individuals with deep systems programming expertise. furthest thing from vibe coding imaginable. > a decade of performance competition in the JS VM space this was a rising tide that lifted all boats, including Node, but Node is built with much more of the system implemented in JS, so it is architecturally incapable of the kind of performance Bun/uWebsockets achieves. | ||

Sure, I definitely will not throw projects like Zig into that bucket, and I don't actually think Bun is vibe-coded. At least that _used_ to be true, we'll see I guess... Don't read a snarky comment so literally ;) | ||

If they wanted to, what would prevent Node or a third party from implementing parts of the stdlib in a faster language? | ||
