When you're talking to an open source dev, just remember that they are literally giving you their time for free, and they are people who don't like to be treated poorly.

Edit: Just to be clear, I don’t mean any ill will toward the guy. He’s frustrated and he’s just taking it out in the wrong venue at the wrong people, but that doesn’t mean he’s a bad person.

Edit 2: The reinstalling he’s talking about is NPM. So just running npm install. It’s because he tried removing the node_modules directory, which is a reasonable thing to do, but it means you need to reinstall the modules with that command.

Port87 is an email service that automatically organizes your email based on the "To" address.

If you give the address "[email protected]" to Netflix, then all of their email will go in the "netflix" label in your account. This lets you organize your email when you give out your email address. It also prevents phishing, since an email from "Bank of America" in your "netflix" label is obviously phishing.

Labels meant for human senders, like the "friends" label ([email protected]), can be set to screen senders, so Port87 will respond to any new senders with a link to click to prove they're a human.

Your "bare address" ([email protected]) only responds to emails with a list of your public label addresses, so you can share it all over the internet without fearing spam. (For example, mine is [email protected].)

Full disclosure: I created and operate this service.
