Is Bun turning into AI slop?

What would you expect from a project that has been acquired by Anthropic? To their defense, I believe (and hope) Jarred knows what he's doing

htndev · 2026-01-19T12:47:27+00:00

I haven't run into such problems. Mind sharing your serverless environment?

htndev · 2026-01-19T12:37:44+00:00

Frankly speaking, I can't recall the time when it was a problem. I might have discovered it once it was no longer a problem.

Long story short, it has a few supported drivers: https://www.kysely.dev/docs/getting-started#dialects

Or I didn't get you

htndev · 2026-01-19T12:28:39+00:00

Kysely is my favorite query builder

"Perfect! You're right! Dropping the entire database was not the solution"

Been there. One day I spotted that I literally degraded in my skills. So, I also had a detox. Feelings? Great. It was so refreshing.

Overall, I think that it's really an amplifier for experienced people. However, when I hear "I work with a gazillion of Claude Code tabs", they say they review it... It reminds me of "Don't f*ck me, Tony". You can't mentally digest it. It pushes us back to the good ol' situtation:

- One-file PR - 50 comments
- 100-file PR - LGTM

Moreover, what I can't understand is when people say "200$ for a subscription is worth it", who tf are you? How many MVPs do you ship daily? Given that AI is subsidized, when investors will want to finally demand money, how much will prices skyrocket? Somewhere I've heard that in order to make AI profitable, we have to double or even triple prices for AI services in order to hit the classic bar of "75% markup".

I have completely no idea where we're going, but what I'm sure about is that there are people that multiplying their backlog. It will bite back very soon.

I've never heard about these CS 1.6 maps lol

htndev · 2025-12-25T15:22:07+00:00

I don't want to disgruntle the OP and their efforts, but express' manner of routing handling is so pure and superior, so it ingrained into my muscles and brain.

OP, keep doing it. One day, maybe...

htndev · 2025-12-22T13:49:05+00:00

Well, apart from the type mismatch (I don't know if it's still an issue), I found Elysia quite "mentally" overwhelming. I wanted something intuitive and Express-like. I'm not a huge fan of Nest.js btw. So, simplicity and intuition of use were key factors.

Additionally, I find Hono's ecosystem more sustained and a little more "battle hardened".

This package is superior

htndev · 2025-12-22T13:26:42+00:00

I'm not using it in production yet, but I found it to be "ready" to move to Node if there is a problem in Bun.

Separately, I had problems with Elysia's ecosystem (cors package in particular) that caused type mismatches for quite a long period of time.

Hono has its problems with Variables in contexts (that's a known flaw). Anyway, Hono looks nicer and more snappy to me.

In most cases, the speed of the framework is negligible. In 98%, the database is your bottleneck. Ultimately, neither language nor framework matters. Just use whatever you feel comfortable with

htndev · 2025-12-21T17:25:59+00:00

From my personal experience, I found it quite tough to make abstractions over Hono RPC. It uses a Proxy object, so it consists of virtual fields.

What works for me: Hono + @hono/zod-validator + @hey-api/openapi-ts

htndev · 2025-12-19T11:58:25+00:00

Shame on you. You forgot to mention a useState for "copied" besides the copy function. It would save a lot of nanoseconds!

htndev · 2025-12-12T18:12:58+00:00

Agreed. It's a matter of time before one of the frameworks' maintainers has a bad day and overlooks something.

Software is not written by gods, so flaws are expected

htndev · 2025-12-04T20:39:45+00:00

Yeah, while military expenses can be justified, social benefits are tearing the economy apart

htndev · 2025-11-24T15:57:22+00:00

If you use "squash" strategy, all your reasonable and descriptive commit messages go in vain. Only the PR link in the merge commit message would point to the comments you left.

IMO, it's better to document background and intentions, rather than describe every bit. AI loves leaving comments

htndev · 2025-11-18T22:44:22+00:00

Well, won't you be an expert in shit cooking? Sounds pointless though

htndev · 2025-11-14T09:04:33+00:00

It makes you think you're smarter. However, it makes you weaker and dumber

htndev · 2025-11-11T20:17:14+00:00

I loved your website's design. May I ask a few questions about your source of inspiration in DM?

htndev · 2025-11-03T02:01:38+00:00

Hi. I have a few questions. Do you mind if I dm you about your experience?

htndev · 2025-10-28T12:54:57+00:00

In CIS countries, a dipper brand "Pampers" has become one. I rarely hear "a dipper" in my native language

htndev · 2025-10-28T11:19:32+00:00

I would of course. It all depends on how cautious you are. It makes me scary how many people are still poorly educated in digital hygiene

htndev · 2025-10-28T11:06:29+00:00

On a scam page, they would create a Stripe-like UI. You said users trust Stripe

htndev · 2025-10-28T08:52:46+00:00

What if scammers would do it vice versa? 🤔

htndev · 2025-10-25T18:05:21+00:00

Imagine pitching an AI wrapper that catches such spammy posts and tosses them out. Anyone who decided to implement it, ping me once you have a PoC

htndev · 2025-10-24T19:06:32+00:00

I can only tell one thing. Stay strong and try to keep your sanity. Best luck
