I recently ran across Modular Forms, which is a new and rather obscure JavaScript library for doing form validation that claims good support for TypeScript (type safety) and low download size. It has variants for a few frameworks like React and Preact.

What numbers and combinations of numbers you see everywhere that you find curious, amusing, or meaningful?
