I do love that javascript's history is basically just coder mentality distilled. "oh yeah we'll fix that shortly" is almost always "oh fuck now we have to"

I chuckled, but this is more about the history of NPM.
In retrospect, allowing an ES consortium seat (Microsoft) to own the largest package repo for the language… might have been a bad idea? Google is one of the worst members of the language board, but Microsoft might be a close second.
Given their ownership of GitHub came with a general community unease, perhaps it’s not surprising that NPM isn’t dating much better. 16 years later we are getting good security controls. Okay.
I’m happy with Deno for most of my needs!
