alt Hacker NewsWould you drive on bridges or ride in elevators "inspected" by anons? Why are our standards for digital infrastructure and software "engineering" so low?
I don't blame the anons but the people blindly pulling in anon dependencies. The anons don't owe us anything.

Do you know who inspected a bridge before you drive over it?
This option is available already in the form of closed-source proprietary software.
If someone wants a package manager where all projects mandate verifiable ID that's fine, but I don't see that getting many contributors. And I also don't see that stopping people using fraudulent IDs.
