What the Hell Is a Deno?
The security stuff for NodeJS is really frustrating. If anything, NodeJS is more secure than something like the JVM or C++. If I include a 3rd party package in the JVM, I have absolutely no guarantee that it will work well, much like in Node. In fact, in Node, I can actually read the source code and see what the package  is, running is doing. In nearly every other environment, you may simply have access to a binary, with maybe some interface info.So why do people not throw the same kind of fit about nearly every other programming environment as they do for Node/NPM? And frankly why do those other environemnts not have the ridiculous security breaches we have seen in Node/NPM land?The real problem with Node/NPM i suspect is a lack of a standard library. Simply having a standard library would have greatly reduced dependency and package hell. Further, a standard library would mean people would be more willing to write a little more code rather than include a new dependency.
