It’s sad to me that I immediately knew the crossing in Austin you were talking about and it made me shudder. Thankfully I’ve never had to use it as a cyclist. However I do live near a “protected lane” in Austin that puts both bike lanes on

You should read the PKGBUILD, even on upgrades. In this case the bad guy took over an orphaned package (with 853 votes) and updated it. You could have looked at the upvotes 5 years ago and blindly upgraded to his new version last week.

I could be misunderstanding your question, but the Sentry JS SDK sends exceptions to the server and they are unminified on the server side. The server will attempt to download the sourcemaps automatically, but you can also disable them in p
