Hello. I have 10 years of compilers experience and I've applied months ago but haven't heard back yet (but also not rejected). Is it possible to reach out to you directly?

Is blink an interpreter for x86_64 instructions, or does it compile basic blocks to the host architecture?

I had a look at the source code but I'm not sure how it works. It looks a bit too small (50 kloc C + 6.6 kloc headers) to have code generators for all of the supported host architectures.

Thanks for the response.

Another question: instead of getting my follows from my Spotify, could it let me type the artists I'm interested in?

I really want to use it (I'm also not happy with Spotify's recommendations), but my follow list is mainly for podcasts. Maybe just letting the user enter the artist names (instead of getting them from Spotify follow lists) would be easier to support?

Good stuff, but I don't use the follow feature on Spotify. Can it use number of plays of songs/artists to make the playlists?

> They do not force re-auth when issuing an access token with publish rights, which is probably how the attackers compromised the packages

I'm surprised by this. Yeah, GitHub definitely forces you to re-auth when accessing certain settings.

I don't understand. The link could've come from anywhere (for example from a HN comment). How does just clicking on it give your package credentials to someone else? Is NPM also at fault here? I'd naively think that this shouldn't be possible.

For example, GitHub asks for 2FA when I change certain repo settings (or when deleting a repo etc.) even when I'm logged in. Maybe NPM needs to do the same?
