I find it hilarious that we now present runtimes and other programming stuff like it was Apple presenting a new iPhone. This would be satire 15 years ago. No disrespect to Bun tho, I love Bun.


The audience for these types of announcement is bigger.

My intuition is that there are many more consumers of node-like environments today than any runtimes 15 years ago.


That's because there's so much cacophony emanating from internet that you have to shout to be heard today.


I find these articles useful when migrating a legacy system, as they sometimes contain migration notes or rare minor details from the developers.

This combined with the Wayback machine makes for a great way to keep track of detailed information


I feel like it’s meant to be satire here as well.


If it is... they're doing a really good job staying composed, because I couldn't tell. It would be amusing if true.
