Seems like the author combined the spec side of mocha with should.js and a stub/mocking library, focused it on node and polished it up with some neat conventions and utilities. I'll probably give it a shot on my next project. I&#

I don't think that's a fair comparison. What if sleeping on the floor and not showering made you think better and your body healthier? It's not simply a privation technique, he seems to be doing it to hack his body for better performance.

I'm not going to pile on in the GH issue, but I'll at least confirm that his reaction may have been a little over the top. You had good form on your PR and specifically mentioned the "feature request" nature of it. To be fair, he looks to
