The comment that points out that this week-long experiment produced nothing more than a non-functional wrapper for Servo (an existing Rust browser) should be at the top:

I've responded to this claim in more detail at [0], with additional context at [1].

Briefly, the project implemented substantial components, including a JS VM, DOM, CSS cascade, inline/block/table layout, paint systems, text pipeline, and chrome, and is not merely a Servo wrapper.

I cannot make these two statements true at the same time in my head:

> Briefly, the project implemented substantial components, including a JS VM

and from the linked reply:

> vendor/ecma-rs as part of the browser, which is a copy of my personal JS parser project vendored to make it easier to commit to.

If it's using a copy of your personal JS parser that you decided it should use, then it didn't implement it "autonomously". The references you're linking don't summarize to the brief you've provided.

What the fuck is going on?

It's funny how their whole grift hinges on people not reading clearly.
