Broke cli tools (firebase for me), computer crashed because of some weird infinite loop out of memory error that I wasn't able to recover from. Anyway good wake up call not relaying on million of deps for npm works hopefully.


No, you broke your CLI tools. By unthinkingly pulling in stuff from someone else's repository without vetting it. Or using other tools which did, which amounts to the same thing.

Good that you woke up to that.
