  • eslint-config-prettier

    Turns off all rules that are unnecessary or might conflict with Prettier.

  • I wouldn’t say they’re arguing something completely different. A large subset of linting rules are by nature purely formatting rules. You can enforce line length with either prettier or a linter and both can auto fix the issue.

    Because of this things like [`eslint-config-prettier`](https://github.com/prettier/eslint-config-prettier) exist to ensure conflicting eslint formatting rules are disabled if they can be handled by prettier.

  • Unicorn Engine

    Unicorn CPU emulator framework (ARM, AArch64, M68K, Mips, Sparc, PowerPC, RiscV, S390x, TriCore, X86)

  • Entails hundreds of hours of single-stepping through that opcode in Linux kernel using an indirect operand pointing toward its own opcode (self-modifying code).

    Even the extraordinaire Fabrice Bellard (author of QEMU) admitted that it is broke and did a total rewrite, which fixed tons of other issues.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
