Look i enjoy pissing on npm packages just as much as the next brogramming hipster but...<p>&#x27;imagine if the car you drove to work had more than 291 parts&#x27;<p>Well... Imagine it has <i>less</i> than that number of parts!<p>Or imagine an apple containing less than that many distinct chemical substances!<p>Not the best example...

An important note for many: this article is a satire, meant as a joke making fun of all the other similar posts

The capitalization treatment in the title of the post (not just here in HN) is like nails on a chalkboard.

<i>Glimmer brings in the entirety of Encyclopedia Brittanica, just to display the definition for the word “glimmer” in its help menu.</i><p>Nice.

Even if it is a satire, there would be no satire in the first place if it weren&#x27;t at least partially true.

Fascinating to see all those attempts to count the number of dependencies (including calling the man page), but why include this in the post?

Author is complaining about Ember having &quot;glimmer&quot; as a dependency and not knowing what it does, however the author is searching github&#x2F;google for the term &quot;glitter&quot;.
