Are you not a native English speaker? I ask because most non-native speakers will accept and appreciate the correction. Only a native speaker would confidently defend their interpretation. And yet, I find it difficult to understand how a native speaker could possible misinterpret this statement.
- johnisgood 8y agoBy statement do you mean "it lowers barriers to contribution"? I just have the idea that you will get more applicants or submissions this way because anyone, without zero effort, could submit their contributions. It's the case with other package managers, too. If you take a look at modern package managers, it is filled with actual garbage, and only very few are of high quality. It seems heavily polluted, due to lowered barriers to submit them, I think. Noobs can just type in a command without having to research it or RTFM, and boom, it's there. I am not sure how people can think that this is necessarily a good thing, still. And to comment on the "native English speaker" part: If by statement you meant "it lowers barriers to contribution": https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19066478 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19066478 I think it explains it well.
