lodash is extremely common knowledge in the js/web world. you’re asking a chemist to explain atoms before sharing their big discovery
I don’t understand everything on the HN frontpage either.
And so if Lodash is what they’re trying to replace, is that not enough info to infer what Lodash might be?
The pharma ad comparison seems more than a little hyperbolic to me.
You either care about Viagra and read or move on.
this github's readme says "alternative to lodash". other than being named "superutilsplus", someone who clicked on it would need to then go google for lodash to see it's another js utilities kit, to then figure out they don't care.
I stopped professional javascript development when i stopped having an office next to Ryan Dahl at Joyent, so, yeah i haven't cared for about a decade. Thanks for explaining about atoms, though, my esteemed chemists.
