Apparently it works retroactively and now you are on Windows.

Oh man, that would be a hell of an easter egg if it cleared your terminal and pretended to be a dos prompt

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 59 points 1 year ago

"ruin dev" is redundant; that's the default behavior.

[–] RichardoC@lemmy.world 53 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nothing, it's already ruined(!)

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

dev.ruin()!

SyntaxError: Unexpected ! operator

No, it's an order!

Understood

Npm ruined dev long before you tried this.

Your code will be minified and your git history deleted

We have the best deployment pipeline in the world, because of jail.

[–] BigMikeInAustin@lemmy.world 30 points 1 year ago

You'll be forced to use only Windows forever.

[–] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 29 points 1 year ago (1 children)

i think the dev is already ruined having to use npm

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago

Security people will say so.

It's an alias to start the upgrade to Windows 11... you thought you were being careful all those months dodging the Windows 11 upgrade button but you've done it now! Get ready for an objectively worse OS!

Considering "being ruined" is a state, and not a scale, the dev is already ruined, because it's not Linux.

[–] Thcdenton@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago

You forgot to run npm edge dev first

Did you get four hundred thousand viruses?

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Computer over?
Virus = very yes?

That's not a good prize!

deploys your code to your dev environment

[–] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

NPM ruin dev is a new advanced feature that endorses opinionated "extreme programming" techniques. First it gets to work rebuilding node_modules, but with all the least compatible module versions in order to accelerate testing. It also minifies your .js code in place, to save you some CPU cycles later. Lastly, it squashes your entire git history on all branches, to save space.

[–] sukhmel@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

It also tries to do rm -rf / to save more space, but in this case it's a futile attempt

[–] un_aristocrate@jlai.lu 13 points 1 year ago

You may have to switch to a proper operating system to redeem yourself.

[–] activ8r@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 year ago

Hope you didn't have the repository URL in your package.json... otherwise it'll be gone now.

[–] squirrel@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 1 year ago

npm will ruin the dev now. It happened to me 11 months ago

[–] MonkderDritte@feddit.de 7 points 1 year ago

NPM on Windows, it doesn't matter anymore.

[–] __init__@programming.dev 7 points 1 year ago

Yeah you’re gonna need a new dev environment. That one’s toast.

[–] reboot6675@sopuli.xyz 6 points 1 year ago

Your .env with production credentials is now up on a public repo

[–] Jakylla@sh.itjust.works 4 points 11 months ago

Not sure CrowdStrike runs on npm, but still ruined it all for sure

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago

Same thing.

[–] Solitaire20X6@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

MCP: Already there, Hun! END OF LINE.

[–] ParetoOptimalDev@lemmy.today 2 points 1 year ago

Its an alias, so no problem.

[–] istoff@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

You should press backspace. 😉

[–] akash_rawal@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

npm ruin dev running shittier could be a nice prank... depending on how often it gets typed.
