i think programmers need a self inflicted rule of it being less than 500 lines of code means you need to write it instead of using a pre written package/library.

On the other hand, we could make the packages like is-number the worst possible way of checking if something is a number, which would be really fucking funny...

I have read programs a lot shorter than 500 lines which I don't have the expertise to write.
