The dependency cycle is actually the functional mechanism of the code, because they subvert the dedup mechanism in the package manager using a random generation trick. Each recursive copy of the dependencies takes up a little bit more space, which ultimately gets converted to the spaces inserted into the original datum; the caller is expected to adjust the cache settings to signal the desired amount. That's also why if you're using left-justify to process strings, Yarn is recommended for best compatibility. /joke
- brazzy 5mo agoSo you're saying dependency resolution is Turing complete?
- animuchan 5mo agoThis is so beautifully cursed, reusing the module loader state as your local state. We could have the familiar Python syntax of `from <key> import <value>` And a custom import hook eating the error. To get value(s) for a given key, naturally we'd scan the module loader cache. Elegant.
