Either GP edited, or you misread. GP says "total opposite" not "total collapse"

  It always said total opposite. You can only edit messages for 2 hours and there is a 4 hour gap between the opposite comment and collapse reply.

    It said total collapse or else I wouldn’t have said as such. It was such hyperbole that I had to respond.

      I read it as “total opposite” and unless the GP has found a way of rewriting both my memory and bypassing HNs automatic hard limit of a 2 hour edit window, I’d say the error is yours. Plus total collapse doesn’t even make sense given the context of post whereas total opposite does. So that alone should have prompted you to re-read their post.

      No, I wrote total opposite. Nothing else. Never changed it. I wrote about the overuse of "lightweight" in the JavaScript community and just that fact that building an OS on top of npm can hardly be classified as "lightweight", thus logically npm is the opposite of lightweight, bloated. Why would I write total collapse when contrasting lightweight? Doesn’t make any sense. You misread. That happens, I do that too time to time. But own it when it happens.
