You know that the mobile ecosystem is completely fucked when you have to open up your device just to do a hard power cycle.. and what for? What's the fucking difference between a connector inside of the device, and one that's outside the device? A couple of cubic millimeters? If it's even that much?17

I feel like instead of disallowing people to pull their packages from npm the actual solution should've been to have another company crop up that just cached packages on npm
then the devs that think this level of security applies to them can pull packages from the cached service and there's no such shenanigans like the "everything" package
and people on npm can still unpublish
not being able to unpublish is so authoritarian... but caching is "I'm not responsible for this anymore so who cares"
similarly the cached service shouldn't pull in everything but only things people called for
because in a bunch of my project if something is pulled I'm totally fine with rolling my own or finding something else
but for corporate projects that would be hell for them. they have different needs.
let's be real, there needs to be the 4chan of packages
