npm VS osu

The fact that JSON doesn't support comments is so annoying, and I always thought that Douglas Crockford's rationale for this basically made no sense ("They can be misused!" - like, so what, nearly anything can be misused. So without support for comments e.g. in package.json files I have to do even worse hacky workaround bullshit like "__some_field_comment": "this is my comment"). There is of course jsonc and JSON5 but the fact that it's not supported everywhere means 10 years later we still can't write comments in package.json (there is https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/4482 and about a million related issues).

Things like the sparkline charts on npmjs (e.g. https://www.npmjs.com/package/npm ) are interactive SVGs. I think they're pretty common for data visualizations of all kinds

I actually did a POC 7 years ago about this - https://github.com/tanepiper/steal-ur-stuff

It was reported to npm at the time, but they chose to ignore it - https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/17724

Every time this pops up, I'm reminded of the day that the NPM registry started returning 418 responses.

I remember being at a training course that day and my manager asking me what we could do to fix it because our CI was failing to pull dependencies from NPM.

Trying to explain that NPM was returning a status code intended as an April Fools joke and which was never meant to see the light of production was quite difficult

https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/20791

I should really get around to how I discovered this 6 years ago and still nothing done about it

Whenever something like this comes up I usually have to tap the sign (and the original report)

NPM is not "Node Package Manager". https://www.npmjs.com/package/npm

> which can be overriden with env setting

Support for this is not great. Lots of packages still don't support this properly. My experience matches the 2015 comment https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/775#issuecomment-71294085

> Not sure why "symlinks" would be involved.

If you make your node_modules a symlink, multiple packages will fail. Even if you're not interested in doing that, others are.

> What NPM does is leaps and bounds ahead

Unless you change your node / gyp version. It doesn't really have a concept of runtime version. You can restrict it, but not have two concurrent versions if they conflict.

[email protected] was released in May 2017 and it seems to address many of the issues that Yarn aims to solve. Do keep an eye on it!

I think it's had been supposed to do that since forever. Apart from some bug in npm 5.3. Are you sure your package-lock versions actually conform to the semver ranges in your package.json?

maybe you only play in lazer, if so replace your account url from osu.ppy.sh to lazer.ppy.sh

osu! (latest version is FOSS)

If you need a screenshot then there's one here: https://github.com/ppy/osu/discussions/23343

there's been a cross platform version for a few years, it's quite nice https://github.com/ppy/osu/

Custom rulesets are posted here. Most of them have instructions on their respective GitHub pages but generally it goes: To install this ruleset put the .DLL file onto your osu/Rulesets directory under %appdata%/. Restart osu!lazer and it will do the rest for you.

{ "id": "txibq9", "name": "osu!", "description": "osu! is a free-to-play rhythm game where the player clicks circles to the beat. The game was created by Dean \"peppy\" Herbert and released on September 16, 2007. It was originally written in C# on the .NET framework for Microsoft Windows, and has since been ported to macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS. It was inspired by iNiS's rhythm game Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan, and also takes inspiration from other rhythm games like Taiko no Tatsujin, Beatmania IIDX, Elite Beat Agents, O2Jam, StepMania, and DJMax. The game is heavily community-oriented, with all beatmaps and playable songs being community-made through the in-game map editor. Four different game modes exist, offering various ways to play a beatmap, which can also be combined with modifiers that increase or decrease the difficulty. The original osu!standard remains the most popular to date. As of r/place 2022, the game had 19,872,585 monthly active users according to the game's global country leaderboards.\n\nThis art is centered at the coordinates (727, 727), a reference to the osu! meme WYSI (when you see it). The meme originates from osu! top player chocomint setting a score worth 727pp (performance points) on the map \"Blue Zenith\", twice in 2016 and 2017. The meme saw a resurgence in 2020 from the top player Aireu after setting a play on \"Guess Who Is Back\", awarding him 727pp.\n\nIn 2017, the osu! logo was one of the most long-lasting, organized, well-maintained, and griefed logos, and continued its trend in 2022. It began as a controversial build due to its large size, and the bottom-right of the circle was heavily disputed with r/Superstonk's GameStop artwork. Despite multiple raids and griefs from larger communities and streamers, the osu! community proved to be indestructible, defending itself and its many allies.", "links": { "website": [ "https://osu.ppy.sh", "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osu!" ], "subreddit": [ "osuplace", "osugame" ] }, "path": { "T:0-1, 1-164": [ [ 721, 678 ], [ 728, 678 ], [ 729, 678 ], [ 729, 679 ], [ 730, 679 ], [ 730, 680 ], [ 731, 680 ], [ 731, 681 ], [ 735, 681 ], [ 735, 680 ], [ 736, 680 ], [ 737, 679 ], [ 746, 679 ], [ 746, 681 ], [ 748, 681 ], [ 748, 682 ], [ 750, 682 ], [ 750, 683 ], [ 752, 683 ], [ 752, 684 ], [ 753, 684 ], [ 753, 685 ], [ 755, 685 ], [ 755, 687 ], [ 758, 687 ], [ 766, 696 ], [ 766, 697 ], [ 769, 701 ], [ 770, 702 ], [ 770, 704 ], [ 771, 704 ], [ 771, 707 ], [ 773, 709 ], [ 773, 712 ], [ 774, 712 ], [ 774, 715 ], [ 775, 715 ], [ 775, 720 ], [ 776, 721 ], [ 776, 734 ], [ 770, 734 ], [ 770, 755 ], [ 768, 755 ], [ 768, 756 ], [ 767, 756 ], [ 767, 758 ], [ 766, 758 ], [ 766, 759 ], [ 765, 759 ], [ 765, 760 ], [ 764, 760 ], [ 763, 760 ], [ 763, 761 ], [ 762, 761 ], [ 762, 763 ], [ 761, 763 ], [ 761, 764 ], [ 758, 767 ], [ 757, 767 ], [ 755, 769 ], [ 753, 769 ], [ 753, 770 ], [ 752, 771 ], [ 750, 771 ], [ 750, 772 ], [ 748, 772 ], [ 748, 773 ], [ 746, 773 ], [ 744, 775 ], [ 740, 775 ], [ 739, 776 ], [ 735, 776 ], [ 734, 777 ], [ 720, 777 ], [ 720, 776 ], [ 715, 776 ], [ 715, 775 ], [ 711, 775 ], [ 711, 774 ], [ 709, 774 ], [ 709, 773 ], [ 706, 773 ], [ 706, 772 ], [ 704, 772 ], [ 704, 771 ], [ 702, 771 ], [ 702, 770 ], [ 701, 770 ], [ 701, 769 ], [ 699, 769 ], [ 699, 768 ], [ 698, 768 ], [ 698, 767 ], [ 696, 767 ], [ 696, 766 ], [ 695, 766 ], [ 695, 765 ], [ 694, 765 ], [ 694, 764 ], [ 693, 764 ], [ 693, 763 ], [ 692, 763 ], [ 692, 762 ], [ 691, 762 ], [ 691, 761 ], [ 690, 761 ], [ 690, 760 ], [ 689, 760 ], [ 689, 759 ], [ 688, 759 ], [ 688, 758 ], [ 687, 758 ], [ 687, 755 ], [ 685, 755 ], [ 685, 753 ], [ 684, 753 ], [ 683, 752 ], [ 683, 750 ], [ 682, 750 ], [ 682, 748 ], [ 681, 748 ], [ 681, 744 ], [ 680, 744 ], [ 680, 743 ], [ 679, 743 ], [ 679, 739 ], [ 678, 739 ], [ 678, 734 ], [ 677, 734 ], [ 677, 721 ], [ 678, 721 ], [ 678, 717 ], [ 679, 717 ], [ 679, 712 ], [ 680, 711 ], [ 680, 709 ], [ 681, 709 ], [ 681, 706 ], [ 682, 706 ], [ 682, 705 ], [ 683, 705 ], [ 683, 702 ], [ 684, 702 ], [ 684, 701 ], [ 685, 701 ], [ 685, 699 ], [ 686, 699 ], [ 686, 698 ], [ 687, 698 ], [ 687, 697 ], [ 687, 696 ], [ 688, 696 ], [ 688, 695 ], [ 689, 695 ], [ 689, 694 ], [ 690, 694 ], [ 690, 693 ], [ 691, 693 ], [ 691, 692 ], [ 692, 692 ], [ 692, 691 ], [ 693, 691 ], [ 693, 690 ], [ 694, 690 ], [ 694, 689 ], [ 695, 689 ], [ 695, 688 ], [ 697, 688 ], [ 696, 687 ], [ 697, 687 ], [ 697, 686 ], [ 699, 686 ], [ 699, 685 ], [ 701, 685 ], [ 701, 684 ], [ 702, 684 ], [ 705, 687 ], [ 710, 682 ], [ 710, 680 ], [ 711, 679 ], [ 712, 680 ], [ 712, 681 ], [ 713, 682 ], [ 714, 682 ], [ 714, 683 ], [ 717, 683 ], [ 719, 681 ] ] }, "center": { "T:0-1, 1-164": [ 724, 728 ] } }
