> For weeks, it was uproar over the blanket AI move to Rust and now it’s this reason. That’s why I said the goalposts are being moved.

I'm just one person though, and have no problem with a move to language X, using tool Y, who cares?

For "goalpost are being moved" to be valid here, you have to be able to point to someone saying one thing at one point, then same person putting a different target later. You're folding a huge group of people into one person, when that's not really accurate to do.

Your point being? None of my comments in either of those state that I'm upset about it moving from Zig to Rust?

I wasn’t referring to you and rather the general sentiment. Hence, goal posts have been moved again comment.

My overall larger point (maybe poorly stated) was that unless you're engaged specifically in a 1-on-1 conversation with someone, accusing a whole community of "moving the goalpost" makes no sense, there is a whole host of arguments and points being made in different directions all the time, by different individuals.

I see what you are saying. My comment is rooted in the fact that different people are foregrounding different objections to Anthropic/Bun, and taken together it looks like whatever launches, someone will find a reason to be upset

Maybe you should consider the objections by their merit rather than just being angry someone dares to criticise anthropic?

		Already did, a few comments up. Happy to go through specific objections again if useful. This particular comment was about thread-level dynamics, not a verdict on any one objection’s merit.
