I guess y'all disagree? > The Bun acquisition blows a hole in that story. > That contradiction is not a PR mistake. It is a signal. > The bottleneck isn’t code production, it is judgment. > They didn’t buy a pile of code. They bought a track record of correct calls in a complex, fast-moving domain. > Leaders don’t express their true beliefs in blog posts or conference quotes. They express them in hiring plans, acquisition targets, and compensation bands. Not to mention the gratuitous italics-within-bold usage. | ||

No no I agree: “No negotiations. No equity. No retention packages.” I don’t know if HN has made me hyper-sensitized to AI writing, but this is becoming unbearable. When I find myself thinking “I wonder what the prompt was they used?” while reading the content, I can’t help but become skeptical about the quality of the thinking behind the content. Maybe that’s not fair, but it’s the truth. Or put differently “Fair? No. Truthful? Yes.”. Ugh. | ||
