Realistically speaking, when Anthropic acquired Bun, they naturally would have needed a narrative showcasing that their AI excels even at relatively new languages like Zig. But since the Zig camp explicitly declared an anti-AI stance, it makes perfect sense why things played out this way. It's a understandable business realit

To upper-middle class people, their job is a religion. Investing in a programming language is a decision to gamble thousands of hours of your life for a programmer. At some point of projects shifting away from your language, your mortgage and your children's tuition will be affected.

I’m so glad as a Python developer none of this religious bullshit enters into the equation. Exactly why I left Scala behind.

		Your comment is just as religious as any other advocate of a programming language. You're giving reasons why the programming language you chose is the right choice. Kind of like explaining why Yahweh is the one true god, and why you left other gods behind.

What a weird take. Might as well give up on anything you care about, as its only an "x"

		You shouldn’t feel slapped in the face if someone chooses a programming language you don’t like. Full stop.
