@ana Nope sista, you making it look funny but funny it is not. Tech nerds refer to AGI as a religion, and it's a pretty shitty one at that. Look this name up: Jaron Lanier. He calls it like it is. More than a couple of lectures on YT. Good stuff.

increasingly clear that when tech nerds refer to "AGI" they just mean trying to invent a type of girl who will like them -
So the "Bun being a vibe coded rewrite from Zig to Rust" is a different story than I think it's being sold as, from everything I can see.@federicomena @cwebber But Federico's point "I don't understand being the lead ..." applies 5x to Ladybird. For Bun, Christine points out these folks know 100% what they're doing (epic marketing stunt + savage diss at Zig with its no-AI policy). Kling and Ladybird is the "Got no horse in the race, and yet I think AI-assist is the way to go."

You and I have diff views on the matter (I like genAI for code, within reason). I read Kling's move as: I have goals w/ ladybird, ie (1) making a new high quality browser and (2) having as much fun/enjoyment in the process as it's fair. C++ is kinda getting in the way of (1), but manual rewrite is polar opposite of (2), so let's see if genAI can help eat cake + have cake.
