You can; it feels contrived and very social justice warrior/anti Anthropic (which on HN is in of itself almost a meme now). The main reason was because of the blanket AI move which I could understand.
replyI think your perception of events is pretty heavily affected by personal bias here. Objecting to a hasty AI rewrite of an entire runtime and objecting to violating the spirit of FOSS is “very social justice warrior”?
replyWhat?
Please re read your original comment. AI rewrite is one thing and objecting to FOSS/non FOSS is a new argument, anti-Anthropic etc is moving the goal posts. The main argument was the blanket rewrite to Rust using Claude.
replyNow, /you/ are trying to move the goalposts into an entirely different argument.
Very likely it’s just anti Anthropic altogether.
Like I said, a meme.
Anthropic hasn’t done anything wrong but if they move a single inch then people will complain. Perhaps it is just a preview version?
Airing two entirely separate objections to a project is not “moving the goalposts”. The original objection still stands! You’re using a phrase you’ve heard in an inappropriate context.
replyI’m sorry but this is a nonsensical debate.
> Now, /you/ are trying to move the goalposts into an entirely different argument.
You said something and I responded to it. That’s invalid too now? There can only ever be one single objection in a conversation? I’m not permitted to react to the things said? Like I said, nonsense.

replyPeople are now saying poor communication because the Bun creator was not able to see the future and didn’t immediately flag his draft rewrite as the next big thing when he started working on it.
