I got distracted by the > const pad = require('pad-left'); Just curious, not much has changed since the left-pad issue a while ago? Not saying it's wrong though.

If this is a genuine question, NPM made quite a few changes, including no longer allowing package versions to be deleted after they've been up for more than 72 hours. It's not possible to "pull the plug" on an entire package that a lot of people are depending on anymore without working with NPM support.

I got all excited and thought it was about running Slack(ware) Linux on a SNES, then its this crap sobs ( ;) )

This is such a common comment on HN that it makes me believe that a small portion of the population doesn't realize that "hey, that word can mean multiple things" is a thought everyone has all the time without considering it particularly noteworthy.

Of course, it's really just an opportunity for some weak posturing like "heh, I thought you meant floppy as in the floppy disk, something us grey beards had back in our day ;)."
