ask yourself this: do you have any money?

if it's not a troll comment, i should emphasize I mean a real business, not gigs

i'm no troll lol

ok so a business, i run many. i build websites, design mobile apps, write books or blog posts for news sites, sell stuff on ebay, do video / photo work for the community.

what r u looking to do?

what's this style guide even mean when google.com doesn't adhere to it?

Thanks for your feedback. I'm trying my best to make it faster. Because It's based on analytics warehouse (BigQuery) it's not trivial...

you're basically right. since it's a side project, i haven't invested in a certificate yet...

you can use this link though: https://latenlog.appspot.com/

I don't want to pile on, but think there's a higher level lesson here, which is that it's important to know your audience. It sounds like you made a conscious decision to forgo TLS, however it's very predictable that that would go over poorly in a place like HN, so I assume you either weren't considering that or weren't aware of that. Try to always think about your audience!

You can get a free cert from StartSSL.

Would love to hear your feedback

it's like an entire eco-system is fundamentally broken

Maybe, but it's not like there is no way of solving that issue.

It's just that this problem can't be solved entirely by npm. Node has to make changes to it's module loader as well.

32,000 files for a hello world... jeez, i'm going back to java.....

Not a lot better:

  $ unzip -l /usr/java/jdk1.8.0_77/jre/lib/rt.jar | wc -l
  20138

It's just less of a burden on the host filesystem because those files are usually loaded straight from the jar (i.e. zip file).

Also note that this is only the standard library. If you add an enterprise framework you're probably pushing 50k.

JRE is a platform, so if you counting platform files, why not also counting NodeJS or browser sources too?

I'd rather look at comparable thing like JEE server + Spring + some server-side renderer like Thymeleaf.

I'd argue that Angular2 is a platform as well.

Yes, let's compare the industrial strength tested jdk with the average npm lib developer.

No, 32k source files for the whole Angular 2 SDK. The deployable hello world app would be one JS file.

Try exploding every Jar in the JDK and counting how many class files and resources there are.
