The project has 2 commits.

2.

Commit #1's message is "hey claude, do a breakthrough" from a week ago and is 1.5M lines. Commit #2 is "blog post" from 4 days ago.

My head is spinning. I don't mind AI stuff or AI enabled stuff but there's gotta be some bar for ending up on HN, and also personal accountability: the lack of humility and honesty sets a new low for me. There is no "we" who "released pgrust 0.2". It's one person cosplaying a serious engineering team doing a mountain of work. The bus factor is 1, and its one you can't trust on the basics.

ex. the first 1/3 of the blog post is bloviating about how a rust for loop is faster at summing 500M numbers on the heap than loading the numbers from a table and summing them.

It leaves me in quite some anguish. This site kept me well-informed and growing for 16 years. It is no longer reliable for that as long as things like this can be the #1 post with 60 comments, with the author here, and no one mentioned any of this.

The second line of commit #2's message is "You can find the actual git history at the v0.2 github tag." which in turn has almost 6000 commits.

I think it's a weird way to handle git history versus squashing feature branches into single commits, but it's not just one Claude session slapped up on GitHub. The OP also has a post above about their exhaustive testing which has uncovered a goodly number of bugs in Postgres itself, too. I think it's fair to say they're putting in a good amount of work on this.
