Real examples here?
(discuss.tchncs.de)
Friend who is not a software person sent me this tweet, which amused me as it did them. They asked if "runk" was real, which I assume not.
But what are some good examples of real ones like this? xz became famous for the hack of course, so i then read a bit about how important this compression algorithm is/was.
Like half of the npm is maintained by a single, arguably awful, person who writes his microprojects into large pieces of software to maximize how often his code gets installed.
Sindre Sorhus?
Just looked them up… holy hell. How does one have so many repos! And all the apps he’s made. ~~What’s the story on them?~~
Edit: just looked it up myself. Seems to be a well liked person in the open source community. Idk. Regardless, props to them for the work they put in.
That's them, yup!
Jon Schlinkert, I believe. Sindre has a lot of stuff as well, but has a better reputation afaik
Sounds like a fork is in order
