      @zachleat I view the reality of dependencies on the web the same way I view flash-drives you find on the ground. Don’t plug them in unless you really have to, and with the knowledge that it’s a bad idea.

   worth noting in case it isn’t clear: this isn’t the fault of the developer team, this is a funding and resource allocation issue

   @zachleat This is a resource issue but also I think the biggest unsolved problem in computer science besides “what is a string” is networks. We moved computers into production on networks way too quickly by about a hundred years and everything we’re dealing with in this world now is because of that.
