alt Hacker NewsMy app is written in TypeScript. With agents I could rewrite it in Rust, I just don’t need to so I don’t. It doesn’t warrant that level of performance and the business logic is more digestible in its current form. Given the amount of reviewing I need to do now, readability is worth more than performance. There are always tradeoffs.
Are you implying that them attempting a Rust rewrite would fail, and this is why they’re not doing it?

Well, Anthropic spent many $ teling everyone that code is dead so this doesn't matter to them does it? Their business logic can be written in English!

Anthropic was saying that you don't need to review the code anymore.
If that was the case, it just makes no sense at all to use JS. Take the free performance gain and don't read the code.
