I think Hyperscript is easy to bash on due to it's _very_ different syntax than what programmers are normally used to. That said, I think it's a really nice way to add little pieces of functionality without needing to bring out the JS frameworks.
It should be remembered that Hyperscript is meant to be paired with a technology like HTMX. I don't think the creator of Hyperscript would be suggesting to anyone that someone attempt to create a web application out of pure Hyperscript.
I think that's a large thing to assume. That announcement could also have been easily just damage control before the markets opened on Monday and nothing has yet to be truly hashed out and agreed on.
Because if they wanted to keep their compute credits that they desperately need to achieve their mission, they cannot be randomly pissing off their biggest collaborators. Just because the board doesn't legally _need_ to work with their for-profit investors, doesn't mean they shouldn't.
Had they played this like adults they could have seen through a smooth transition and not be looking at a total collapse like they are now.
I think what people in this thread and others are trying to say is that to run a organization like OpenAI you need lots and lots funding. AI research is incredibly costly due to highly paid researchers and an ungodly amount of GPU resources. To put all current funding at risk by pissing off current investors and enterprise customers puts the whole mission of the organization at risk. That's where the perceived incompetence comes from no mater how good the intentions are.
