Why does programming with JavaScript feel like infecting yourself with and the machine with AIDS? Use a script from some random cdn here, download 46578 npm packages with triple the critical vulnerabilities there.
It feels so disgusting

Welcome to web development. Why the hell are you needing so many npm packages though? Express, React, Vue, mysql2 - those things I totally get. I can't remember the last time I used anything outside of those.

@Lensflare That's either cooking oil, motor oil, or piss depending on the developer.

@nosoup4u I was over exaggerating.

@nosoup4u well those install a few thousand packages right?

@Jifuna yeah, you're 100% correct. I just checked the package-lock.json for a microservice I deployed earlier this week that has three declared dependencies. There's definitely way more than three packages in there, and that means potentially millions of pictures of Guy Fieri in my shipping software. Dayum.

@nosoup4u lol yeah maybe! Reminds me of this: https://sonatype.com/blog/...

@nosoup4u wait do I UNDERSTAND exaggerating? 😂

because that's what it is.
