surely this VC funded hypergrowth chasing startup will end the turbulent history of JS and usher in a new, more stable era

It's not what it looks at at first sight 😉 (I watched it a while ago so I only remember the general conclusion, and I don't remember the details and also I haven't been following JS developments that closely)

Ok watched - yeah that’s hilarious, it’s almost become even more accurate with WASM becoming a thing

No. And Bun has made some choices that make me slightly distrustful of it. Maybe when 2.0 drops and there's enough of an ecosystem to insure against the VC backers changing the licence on everybody...
