I'm a really bad game dev, among other things.

This post obliterated any chance I had to use or condone Zig commercially. If this is how Zig leadership thinks and acts, plus their stance on AI and GitHub, I'm afraid that the language will stay archived as a neat PL research project in my mind.

And maybe it's what Andrew wants.

I suspect some of those that try to downplay the personal attacks are either on the spectrum or just not acting in good faith.

And he was right!

Not to mention he was attacking an opaque corporation, not a single person like this blog post does.

> Would you argue that Chez Scheme (to pick a random example) isn't a "serious programming language"?

Commercially speaking? Absolutely not a "serious programming language" in this context.

If someone tries to implement a project using Chez Scheme, they better have agreat reason to not use mainstream boring language.

I would love to have an unprofessional embarrassment project like Bun on my portfolio.

SWEBench Pro should be ignored until they fix it or disprove the broken task accusations.

It seems to trade blows with GPT 5.5 and Opus 4.8 in performance while being cheaper than GLM 5.2.

> Claude Code v2.1.181 (released June 17th) and later use the Rust port of Bun.

It seems the reports of Bun's death have been greatly exaggerated.

> he trigger was watching deepseek-flash fail on the simplest /review run, every shellCommand and readFile call bouncing back with a raw zod issues blob, the model unable to recover because the error wasn't in a form it could read. by the end deepseek v4 pro was beating opus 4.7 6/10 times on our internal evals.

I think this is why Xiaomi forked OpenCode and created their own agent hardness, to reduce friction between model and harness:

From what I understood, the gist of it is that uses a bunch of skills in a loop to help LLMs solve the tasks better via browser-testing, debugging, visual-testing, etc..

The skills can be found here:

Question that was left unanswered:

How much longer does a 4x DeepSkeep loop took compared to Opus?

"Fable" is the new "Rust".

If your HN title contains "Fable", you get instant upvotes just because, regardless of merit.

yeah, and might as well ban Chinese models too for safety since they can do the same.

This looks like the usual https://threejs.org animation built by LLMs.

I'm more interested in:

- The correctedness of the data and if it was reviewed.

- The skills and challenges while building it. Was it a one shot? Did it had a feedback loop?

Kudos to you.

Every time I try to vibe code myself to sleep I blink once and it's 5am. Creating is too much fun.

Any tips?

That's what VSCode next edit does too. It gathers context from the surroundings and recent actions to suggest blocks of code.

It often feels magical. But I find agentic plan->review->implement->review workflow to be a net positive in cohesion, documentation and throughput, relatively speaking.

I can speak for Chrome's MCP which I have more experience.

devtools MCP will have access to more deep level fetures such as performance profiling, lighthouse and network requests in details (headers, auth, cookies...).

For example, I had success using chrome devtools mcp to debug frontend performance issues. The LLM captured and analyzed some nice traces and was able to isolate bottlenecks and unnecessary repaints and reflows.
