I have to be honest. While this is obviously a smart and useful idea, it misses one of the core features of Jev: its confidence scores. Partial confidence could easily be mapped to fractional spaces, using unicode characters like U+2009: THIN SPACE. As it stands, this package is not harnessing the full power of Jev.

How did this guy get a single-letter GitHub username?

Would be fun to have a test runner that uses Jev for assertions.

Btw, this model also has very tiny inherent bias: https://jev-bias-analysis.stupidlabs.lol/

    The tests mock Jev. 

Man-made horrors beyond my comprehension, neat.

This needs an SBOM and a SonarQube Qualitygate pass to be considered production grade code

Make sure to vendor this package if you want reliable operation.

    it('trusts Jev when it chooses the wrong amount', async () => {
    answer('space_2');
    await expect(leftPad('jev', 8)).resolves.toBe('  jev');
    });

> This means the package can add between 0 and 10 spaces. If more than 10 spaces are needed, Jev has no correct option. Which feels appropriate for this project.

I'll raise a PR which uses Jev to check if the target length is beyond this range

On the npm doomsday thing, the scarier version is someone vendoring it and the padding silently drifting between runs.

But is it Web Scale.

what if 11 spaces are needed

im so confused about what i should bring up at the 10am today

Can someone ELI5?

wait.. is it just me or are we going overboard? I am waiting for jev assistance to exit vim, no wait.. a decision if we should exit vim or not.

why

> Please don't use this in production. Or anything important.

5 to 10 years from now, after this has worked itself deep into the npm dependency chain, we'll be lamenting how Jev-Leftpad is causing outages in critical services.

Now that's a rare GitHub Username!

Though, again, a yet another project for a yet another "AI" to make someone else more dependent on it...
