I think Hyperscript is easy to bash on due to it's _very_ different syntax than what programmers are normally used to. That said, I think it's a really nice way to add little pieces of functionality without needing to bring out the JS frameworks.

It should be remembered that Hyperscript is meant to be paired with a technology like HTMX. I don't think the creator of Hyperscript would be suggesting to anyone that someone attempt to create a web application out of pure Hyperscript.


I think that's a large thing to assume. That announcement could also have been easily just damage control before the markets opened on Monday and nothing has yet to be truly hashed out and agreed on.


Because if they wanted to keep their compute credits that they desperately need to achieve their mission, they cannot be randomly pissing off their biggest collaborators. Just because the board doesn't legally _need_ to work with their for-profit investors, doesn't mean they shouldn't.

Had they played this like adults they could have seen through a smooth transition and not be looking at a total collapse like they are now.


I think what people in this thread and others are trying to say is that to run a organization like OpenAI you need lots and lots funding. AI research is incredibly costly due to highly paid researchers and an ungodly amount of GPU resources. To put all current funding at risk by pissing off current investors and enterprise customers puts the whole mission of the organization at risk. That's where the perceived incompetence comes from no mater how good the intentions are.


I understand that. What is missing is the purpose of running such an organisation. OpenAI has achieved a lot, but is it going to the direction and towards the purpose it was founded on? I do not see how one can argue that. For a non-profit, creating value is a means to a goal, not a goal in itself (as opposed to a for-profit org). People thinking that the problem of this move is that it destroys value for openAI showcase the real issue perfectly.


Exactly. Add to that the personal smearing of one person and it seems like a very unnecessarily negative maneuver.


Interesting to see oh this will affect (or not) the Rescript project.


Melange and ReScript target different audiences.

AFAIU, ReScript is a new language that offers an alternative to TypeScript.

Melange approaches the problem from the perspective of compatibility with OCaml / ReasonML. We've focused very hard on vertical integration with the OCaml Platform[1] and we're getting all the benefits with this release!

That said, both communities are fairly small, and I don't doubt that somewhat competing projects have some impact on community. From our perspective (the Melange team), our goals fit a specific use case, and e.g. Ahrefs, one of the leading SEO engines in the world, is using Melange[2] in production to power all their web experiences.

Great work on this write-up! Super informative and well written. It's refreshing to read posts like this


I'm using both, with with Rescript primarily on the front-end and Melange on the backed... both targeting JS/NodeJS.


We've been hearing complaints from AT&T users for months now that our website (https://vstream.com) doesn't work for them. I've tried hunting down the reasons & tried getting in touch with AT&T to no avail. This seems like it could be the very thing that's causing the issues for our users.

Now I just need to figure out what to tell our users that are having these issues...


I believe I can confirm that vstream.com is affected by this. It fails to fully load in a reasonable amount of time unless I connect via VPN, Verizon, or my (phone) hotspot.

Update: For what it's worth, the "above the fold" portion of the content loads down to "All Debuts". After that, there's a long blank space with a Loading indicator near the bottom. Eventually it loaded. I didn't keep track of how long, but it was almost certainly longer than 1 minute.


This appears to load fine for me on both AT&T fiber and AT&T cellular. It looks like all content on that site is being loaded from Cloudflare, so I'm curious if those users would be having issues with other Cloudflare protected sites as well?


You can try it yourself without any of the math with just a little bit of programming.

  function calc30(odds) {
    for (let i = 0; i < 30; i++) {
      if (Math.random() < odds) return true;
    }
    return false;
  }
  Array.from(Array(10000)).map(() => calc30(0.04)).filter(Boolean).length //=> 7022 or ~70%
  Array.from(Array(10000)).map(() => calc30(0.02)).filter(Boolean).length //=> 4545 or ~45%

Lattice is a performance management startup that helps companies track and improve employee performance. We believe that good performance management is critical for companies and employees to be successful. Unfortunately, the process is often painful, but we don't think it has to be that way.

The company was founded by myself (Eric Koslow) and our CEO Jack Altman.
