OpenAI += "Rust" UV maker Astral

An "answer" to Anthropic acquiring Bun.js team recently (for Zig development of Claude Code)

OpenAI acquiring (team) for Rust development of OpenAI Codex dev tool.

This reminds of Microsoft's (in)famous chant "developers, developers, developers".

OpenAI to acquire Astral | OpenAI

"Astral has built some of the most widely used open source Python tools, helping developers move faster with modern tooling like uv, Ruff, and ty. 

These tools power millions of developer workflows and have become part of the foundation of modern Python development. 

After closing, the Astral team will join the Codex team at OpenAI"
