I knew a guy who boasted about the number of repositories he created on Github. Said he created over four thousand.
I took a look. He did in fact sit down and create over 4,000 different, unique repositories. Each with a README and some slight variation on a few lines of code. That's some kind of dedication, I guess?
Was he a Go developer before generics? Published 4000 versions of the library, one for each type.
No, it was mostly short bash/python/php scripts.
Maybe he automated it?
And maybe he published it on GitHub?
That’d be funny. Seeing
mass-repo-creatorand then 4000 random repositories below it.
