Odd node reps (or Stunnix's revenge?)by adrianh (Chancellor) |

Some of you may remember with a warm glow the mildly heated conversation over Here is a commercial obfuscator. I recalled it when the topic of Stunnix's Perl-obfu came up on a ruby list - so I dug it out as an amusing reference (and so people would realise that not all Perl folk think obfu-ing real code is sane.) On re-reading I was somewhat surprised to see every anti-Stunnix node had a heavily negative reputation, and every pro-Stunnix node had a positive reputation. I think you can tell from the posts why I was surprised. A quick supersearch on nodes that mention Stunnix show similar odd results:
Now of course there could be a large silent majority voting who think massively overpriced commercial Perl obfu services are a good thing. Alternatively there could be somebody who felt so slighted by the nodes in question they want to the trouble of writing some web bots to do a little corrective voting. I have to admit to being mildly amused ;-) Update: I've just realised what day it is. Damn you. Damn you all :-) (and apologies to Stunnix :-)
