Holy Crap, this message from the #corejs maintainer is something else!

“I wanted to make the life of all JS developers easier and in November 2014, I published core-js as an open-source project. Maybe it was the biggest mistake in my life.”

You have to read the rest of his story yourself. Let’s just say it’s crazy he suffered through so much, while maintaining one of the webs most popular libraries for free!

@vsaw A whole new take on Bus Factor I hadn't considered before.... what if the single point of failure is *driving* the bus?

@brian Never really liked the term bus factor anyway, regardless who gets hit it's disrespectful IMHO. I'd rather give a term closer to single point of failure or resiliency score or whatever 🙂

@vsaw @brian “Lottery factor” isn’t quite so macabre.
