Friend who is not a software person sent me this tweet, which amused me as it did them. They asked if “runk” was real, which I assume not.
But what are some good examples of real ones like this? xz became famous for the hack of course, so i then read a bit about how important this compression algorithm is/was.
Sindre Sorhus?
That’s them, yup!
Just looked them up… holy hell. How does one have so many repos! And all the apps he’s made.
What’s the story on them?Edit: just looked it up myself. Seems to be a well liked person in the open source community. Idk. Regardless, props to them for the work they put in.
Jon Schlinkert, I believe. Sindre has a lot of stuff as well, but has a better reputation afaik
