The essential part of the story as I have heard is how a tiny little packet deleted can create havoc. For that issue, the contents of the package is not essential. I have vague memory, that is was some sort of bit fiddling, possibly searching for the highest 1-bit in a word. My memory may be wrong, and it is insignificant for the real problem of dependencies.
Edit:
My memory was wrong - so if I had presented it in the original post, it would have been misleading. The module creating most problems were 'left-pad', a rather trivial string function for right justifying a text.

I think it is also worth noting that NPM (the package registry in question) has since updated its terms of usage?
If you now publish a package you simply CAN'T unpublish it anymore if other packages are depending on that particular package.
The story was most known by frontend developers, since NPM is the platform they use most. 'broke the internet' is a very bold statement, but it did create some havoc indeed in its days.

Of course, it's the logical thing to say.

Here is an example of what is happening
" How much is one plus one ?"
since the sentence ends with "?" it is a question.
answer
" RTFM
you have asked this before
it takes brain...
can you follow instruction ?
if you cannot follow the instruction ...
go back to school
"
can anybody see that one and one is two ?
I am pointing out that the made up , example "answer", did not contain
" one and one is two ".
I have been putting up with the above attitude , "answers" posted by a person signing as "software engineer of company X ".
Posted by a person who is getting paid by the company X.
I quit responding to this (jerk) , however, in today's world business GENERALLY react ,
respond to negative review.
Should I send one to the company X?
I prefer NOT , I assume "they" do not care.
End of rant
Have a swell day

I found a long time ago, if someone is uphappy they want everyone aound them to be unhappy.
They cause a scene because they want you to react. If you don't react they will eventually move on to someone else.
The internet just makes it easier for them to reach out and touch someone.
If you can't find time to do it right the first time, how are you going to find time to do it again?

I someone wants to present themself as a jackass while representing company X then, YES, let company X know what a jackass they are. I would not hesitate for second.

his answer is bad, that's for sure.
But you are not exactly the best enquirer either. Maybe you should start on you improving the way you ask things.

Quote: I have an issue I agree. You have it, because even when you get a confirmation you derive it to "it is my fault".
The rest of my message was my opinion and a explanation of why you get more answers like that than other users of the site.
And here more personal opinion from my side:
In every post I have read from you, I feel some kind of "fighting" / "arrogant" tone in the message. I can only remember two posts of you where nobody told you something in the lines I have told you.
If you pay that much attention as you suggest, you should already know that two of the things that trigger most people here are: lazyness and disrespect.
It is not enough to "ask a question", you should transmit that you have alredy put effort trying in your own too, at best explaining what you have done to avoid "repetitions that bring no additional value" in the answers you get.
And some other things, that I would tell, but I won't because I suppose you don't want to hear it and I doubt that it really help in the situation, so I will spare my energy.
But instead of all that, you usually keep all posts in a tone of personal attack, you against the world and similar impressions. Do not get surprised if the "empathy" or "sympathy" of the people remain low in the interaction with you. One harvests what one seeds.
Have a nice weekend

It could be that they are an employee or that they are just claiming to be an employee.
Larger companies generally will not put up with that.
Smaller companies might or might depending on if it is an employee and what kind of employee.
Salvatore Terress wrote: I assume "they" do not care.
I doubt that. But could be the case that they are not paying enough to have enough people to deal with that sort of thing.
