If it ain't broke, I'll fix it!

Holy shit until very recently npm docs actually recommended chowning /usr/local to a random user (or whatever prefix node was installed into). Did they just silently implement this in code?! https://web.archive.org/web/20171214001907/https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/fixing-npm-permissions …
LOL, they have a magical mkdir-and-fix-permissions function that *explicitly* chowns *recursively* to the uid/gid that called sudo instead of root in that case. https://github.com/npm/npm/blob/d3095ff20b8ea01e7fbf93a4a697a04fea77d8e6/lib/utils/correct-mkdir.js#L55 … and then they do shit like run it on the installation path 'etc' dir. https://github.com/npm/npm/blob/d3095ff20b8ea01e7fbf93a4a697a04fea77d8e6/lib/config/core.js#L156 …
This isn't a subtle bug, this is literally working exactly as intended and written and clearly not tested by anyone on a real system.
One of the developers is asking for 2 days to fix the problem. It took me 5 minutes to find that. On the GitHub search interface. And I don't even do node. Never looked at the npm codebase before. 2 days, seriously?
Oh I saw that. Didn't feel like replying, he's making enough of a fool of himself already.
