       @amolith@nixnet.social I think the better thing is to create a real standard library for JavaScript. Everyone else has their own version of leftPad, isArray, etc. built in or with a standard import.

       @wowaname @amolith also consider the isArrray readme: "Just use Array.isArray directly, unless you need to support those older versions."its really just meant for backwards compatibility, many of these micro packages are, so honestly he's really just out of his mind has obviously done 0 reserch

       @fence @amolith i mean im sure some old ie deployments are still in use, but they already have specialised environments anyway and they probably dont use node

       @wowaname @amolith oh there is a lot of enterprise shit still running ancient node versions since years, legacy software is a real problem no matter the language
