For a strange reason, I like “meaningless numbers” (statistics).
I looked at:
https://rubygems.org/stats
And these are the main stats right now:
Total gems:
122,824
Total users:
105,027
Total downloads:
9,799,064,387
Especially the total amount of downloads. This is, again, somewhat
meaningless but still interesting IMO - when will we reach
10.000.000.000? That’s like a magic number! If I don’t forget, I
may reply here to this when this happens, just to see. (Current
date here is: Tuesday, 06.09.2016 in DD.MM.YYYY format)
