Can you point to a specific thing we said that was rude to any person or any group?

So far, this reads a bit like that thing that happens on Twitter where one person says “waffles are good” and someone else replies “why do you hate pancakes?”

can you be more direct because I’m not very good at reading rooms

Generally I would be concerned about a breaking change like that, but I suspect this is pretty rare to be used since it took awhile for anyone to ask for it, so it’s probably
fine.

Yeah, this wasn’t well thought out and is an unimportant feature. We will change it to not be configured this way.

Yeah.

We debated opening this up to external contributors, but we’re a small team and worry about how long it’d take us to review a potentially large number of PRs at once

If work like this sounds fun, we are hiring engineers in-person in San Francisco.

Some PRs add like 50 test files so that $200 bonus adds up quickly ($10,000)

We’re not merging slop. There will be 2 reviewers for every PR + I’m going to review every PR.

Claude does a much better job when you say something like “I know you can do better work than this” twice

To configure tailwind, you’ll need to add this to bunfig.toml

[serve.static]
plugins = [“bun-plugin-tailwind”]
