      Look at what you’re missing!

      Edit: also, is-odd depends on is-number

        These are both made by the same person from this PR (who also made both the package the PR is on, and the is-number package that is being removed as a dep)

        Heaven forbid they make a package is-even-or-odd with both. Wait. Don’t give them ideas. They’ll just make it depend on both.

        Sure, but when was the last time you saw, say, a Python project using some third-party library instead of simply calling isnumeric() from the standard library?

        There’s a reason for these jokes always being about Javascript.

          Python has other stupid problems related to pip. As much as stupid micro-dependencies suck in Javascript, they’re not the shitshow managing dependencies in Python is. It’s an inefficiency that never actually caused me noticeable issues in my former webdev life.

          And let’s not talk about C++… People reinvent all sorts of wheels all the time because sharing anything is so annoying.
