- gitgud 7y agoThis Calculator project was added to GitHub 5 months ago in January now the project has 17,000 stars. Are these real people liking the project or has Microsoft got bots to boost it's open-source reputation... it's especially suspicious now since they own the platform now...
- onefullclick 7y agoThere are almost 8 billion people in the world. I think 17,000 people is a small number. And geeks are going to geek and nothing geekier than checking Microsoft Calculator, a simple project that everyone can relate to.
- guardian5x 7y agoI think you are right. Another possible explanation would be a big conspiracy though, and probably the government is also involved somehow.
- laumars 7y agoI know some people like to comment on the headline rather than reading the content but that comment is literally the first line in the article: > tldr; saw a Windows Calculator bug on reddit. Since calc.exe was open-sourced I thought I’d try to find the bug and fix it.
