Or to say it in his own words: "Few individuals have done as much to push the web forward while uplifting its developers, and that legacy will be felt for a long time to come." source: https://addyosmani.com/bio/
Oh my god. I have never seen an about/bio page even half as gross and cringey as this. It's so obscene that it reads like a parody
> Colleagues often remark on Osmani’s humility
LOL! Who writes these things about themselves with a straight face?!
It also shows that taking credit for others' work is 100% his MO.
> Osmani’s team created Workbox, a set of libraries for generating service worker scripts that handle caching and offline functionality with minimal fuss. Workbox simplified what used to be a complex task of writing low-level code to intercept network requests.
No, Jeff Posnick (who I suppose technically was on addy's team) created workbox and it has been basically abandonned since he left Google.
I have to assume the rest of the bio, and his career, has been built off of usurping credit. He always rubbed me the wrong way, and this vindicates that sense.
