feedback VS typometer

no-one-left-behind[1] was not even a year ago, and yet the link on npm[2] explaining why it was removed is already broken. Classic JS ecosystem.

I created a new discussion in the npm/feedback repo to share my idea. I also mentioned my idea in relevant discussions: npm scores, Weird search behavior with stats, and Improve search functionality on npmjs.com.

We encourage you to open a discussion if you have suggestions for how we can improve npm. You don't need to have a solution to the problem you are facing to kick off a discussion. We are hoping to foster productive and collaborative conversations, so please check out how to give good feedback if you want some guidance on how to kick off a successful discussion.

There is an ongoing discussion about 2FA and possible bandaids for this sort of problem in the npm community forum: https://github.com/npm/feedback/discussions/588

See - https://github.com/npm/feedback/discussions/191

Now there have been some discussions around to mitigate these things which might have gone side ways like https://npm.community/t/blacklist-entire-packages/9659/4 and https://github.com/npm/feedback/discussions/272. Of course there might be tools which you can use, such as running a commercial npm registry in proxy mode with blacklisting support. But what are the basic features you have as a developer that can be use to mitigate these things ?

This is likely the issue as npm 7 auto installs peer dependencies, which will fail on conflicting dependents.

Thanks, that's a really nice offer. Well, if your pi can run typometer that would be an ideal thing to test. Use an editor that has good typing latency. That is nothing based on electron or java. Geany or Kate should work. Don't use vim or emans on a terminal as most terminals have terrible typing latency (except xterm and mlterm)

There is a great comparison between various terminals' latency https://danluu.com/term-latency/ (it comes up periodically on HN too - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19443076), so once when I was curious if it was just me or if RDP was indeed slower, I did a quick test using the same toolset - https://github.com/pavelfatin/typometer

It is not a super-scientific test since:

0) I didn't spend too much time on this

open -a Spotify --args --disable-smooth-scrolling

You used to be able to disable Chrome's smooth scrolling with chrome://flags/#disable-smooth-scrolling, but that flag was removed for whatever reason.

I'm also surprised by how much faster Firefox's builtin middle mouse click autoscroll is compared to Chrome's ersatz AutoScroll[2] extension.

First, about the methodology: I took all my measurements with typometer on an Ubuntu 18.04 computer running X11. I tried Firenvim (both in Firefox and Chrome), Fvim, Gnvim, Goneovim, Neovim-Gtk, Nvim-Qt, Nwin and Uivonim. I couldn't try Neovide because it didn't run on my computer. The terminal I tried was Kitty, which has better latency than Alacritty.

The first thing to do is to try and measure latency to confirm your feeling. You can use something like typometer ( https://github.com/pavelfatin/typometer ) to do that.
