only in the most narrow sense. His cause, whatever it is, isn't furthered, but now everyone involved (including him) looks bad, and a lot of innocent people have had their time wasted fixing something that shouldn't have broken. It's a loss for everyone involved. He looks petty and untrustworthy, npm looks amateurish, kik gets bad publicity, and everyone using this junk is stuck with their face in their palms.
- cyphar 11y agoDon't blame the guy who pressed a button that allows you to unpublish a core module. Sure, it was done on purpose this time, but what if it happened by accident. Your "package manager" shouldn't be this fragile.
- overgard 11y agoI can blame both of them.
- icelancer 11y agoAnd how do you look, having used a package manager that allows such an action without preparing for this eventuality?
- overgard 11y agoYour point eludes me. I guess you're implying I'm stupid for having trusted a standard well known tool?
