A lot of people are making fun of his code or versioning skills.
It's very cool that he was able to code something interesting enough to be on the top of HN, without mastering the tools he used.
People should focus less on code and tools and more on making great stuff, like him.
- andai 4y agoI found this part of the readme amusing: > Warning: This code is fucking awful. > Do not expect the code to be stable under any modifications, but you can try if you want I guess. Also there are barely any comments sorry. I am in Electrical Engineering and I like writing shitty code to piss off my Computer Science friends.
- 8bitsrule 4y agoTeenager Evariste Galois did a lousy job of explaining how his math worked, none of the experts could make sense of it. He'd been dead a decade before Liouville said hey, this shit is alright. It turned out to be sorta useful a century later. A couple of the experts are still remembered, not for much.
