I got my initial name and exposure from writing a book for free online, but the truth there is that any random person reading a book gets to interact with it in far more depth than code and you can put a lot more of your personality in it, and then still get a book deal and make the equivalent of close to (or below) minimum wage far more easily than with code, but with as many job/speaking opportunities lined up with it. Like thinking of it in these terms I was a god drat genius [actually: lucky] to focus on this at first, and it's worth it forever more than code. Plus almost nobody asks you to maintain and patch a book past publication.

Also: creative commons licenses are incredibly clearer in intent than OSS licenses and I love them. Like look at this poo poo: CC BY-NC-SA: This license allows reusers to distribute, remix, adapt, and build upon the material in any medium or format for noncommercial purposes only, and only so long as attribution is given to the creator. If you remix, adapt, or build upon the material, you must license the modified material under identical terms. CC BY-NC-SA includes the following elements: BY – Credit must be given to the creator NC – Only noncommercial uses of the work are permitted SA – Adaptations must be shared under the same terms

prisoner of waffles posted:… sounds like people itt know marak squires more personally than I do IDK him, but Look at the timeline - crazy house full of bombmaking stuff, child endangerment charge, involuntary psychiatric hospitalization. Articles were written in September 2020, In November 2020 he stops updating his libraries and expects to get paid for his work. He got mental health treatment and realized what he was doing with colors and faker for no gain was delusional. My assumption is that the reason there are no more news articles about a crazed bomb maker being investigated by the feds is that he either checked himself in voluntarily for a relatively long stay (4-6 weeks is a long time today), or he agreed to a criminal mental health diversion (no more public updates). Also looking at the github, I don't think they locked him out to protect the giants of the industry. He probably triggered an internal process that everyone except for one ten billionth of the planet would be glad existed if it looked like their account was being used maliciously.

"infinite jest" is a short form for "infinite js test", which refers to everyone's workplace's CI config

DaTroof posted:but have you offered him a job in the past eight hours This really was nothing. He pointed out that his code was unmaintaned, which was responsible post log4j. He also pointed out how important it is to hire developers with the skill to be able to do something other than glue NPM packages together. Because those were the people he hurt. The literal parasites that have built careers/enterprises off the NPM "ecosystem" without contributing much of anything back. As a "local man" whose been in the news with a decent personality, credentials, and talent - whether he'll have trouble finding 1099/w2 work after this comes down to his people skills. Not the fact he made clowns out of a bunch of people for relying on unmaintained code.

If this caused issues for people in production, all it did was pan the cameras down in the video conference to find out who doesn't wear pants.

i work on some typescript stuff and yeah some transitive dependencies via test tooling pulled in the latest version of the colors library it just broke CI for a while, but whatever that whole ecosystem is just eternally throwing poo poo at the wall anyway so it's not any more busted than usual so it was personally an annoyance for me but i think for most people it's basically a warning shot for why you should pin dependencies if it's anything that matters

the best practice in jvm land is to pick whatever is the latest version when you pull in the dependency and then never update it ever. then five years later you do a rewrite in spring boot

i feel like the pathological case of dependency management for node is really driven by Problem 3 aka using open source as a resume. "Why yes I have many npm libraries, each with several million downloads each" [each one is a one-liner]
