Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Not entirely the usual fare, but i figured some here would appreciate it

I often rag on the js/node/npm ecosystem for being utter garbage, and this post is a quite a full demonstration of many of the shortcomings and outright total design failures present in that space

I totally get that it's a normal thing and it is a disruption of service, but it doesn't strike me as "everybody freak out".

If, say, Lemmy stopped you from deleting your comments for 24h few would even notice.

I am guessing that the "everybody freak out" part happened when the extent became evident and everyone realized all of npm was suddenly unpublishable, not so much because everyone individually freaked out individually immediately.
