I don't know if the intent was to deceive, but the comments certainly had the effect of deceiving me. I came away from that first thread thinking, "Ah, so the 'story' here is that someone on the project tried an experiment on a branch that they probably should have put in a branch on their personal fork." I was no longer thinking it was a serious possibility that an AI rewrite would get merged.
Edit: my mistake. Sorry for misreading.
You've crossed into personal attack with this, and that's not allowed here. Please don't.

Which persons were attacked by their comment? The "them" is confusing me – I interpreted it as Bun the organisation / Anthropic?
I'm confused too as to how my comment can be interpreted as a personal attack on anyone.
I was indeed talking about Bun as a whole and not any particular person. I'd even include the Bun community in my "them".
But I'll take dang's word for it and will watch what I say.

I think Jarred's response at the time was intended to cool the ridiculous hype when the branch first appeared!
