I notice there's an isEven as well. I wonder if they're mutually recursive.

The commit history is surprisingly long. The actual test evolved from

  return !!(~~i >> 0 & 1)
to

  return !!(~~i & 1);
to

  const n = Math.abs(value);
  return (n % 2) === 1;

the joke is that is-odd has a dependency - the is-number package

Look at how often it was downloaded last week alone: https://www.npmjs.com/package/is-odd

We're all doomed.
