    You can publish a package that has zero files in it, even if it mentions them in main/exports. That’s a very basic check they could do, but they don’t. Ideally you wouldn’t be able…

    Tell that to LinkedIn and every single social network out there. The “successful web” is successful because of dark UX. That’s the harsh truth. HN’s success is the exception, not t…

    The last time I pointed this out, some npm dinosaur said npm allows publishing of any type of package so it cannot enforce a structure. Wow, really, that’s exactly what I’m saying.…

    ₱200B is 11.7 billion USD. That’s an insane investment in the Philippines, which has a GDP only 35 times bigger.

    “Safari” doesn’t mean “Safari Desktop”. We’re talking about the Mac here.

    Come on that’s a lazy comeback. It’s obvious they have more Korean employees than Californian, I don’t need fact check. Having direct factory access (read: own) further reduces cos…

    I don’t agree. Anyone can notarize non-malicious apps at any time on the Mac already. Please look at what you can do with Mac apps before judging. I think the issue here is just th…
