Workers KV has been down for like +30mins. This is impacting us seriously. Their API is down too. Amazing that something can impact their whole infrastructure like this given how much redundance they have.

How do you make NPM better? BTW I'm not saying we should kill NPM. What I'm saying is we should reduce our dependance on random packages. Bun doesn't need to add everything into the core engine. Eg: when using .NET you still

I don't mind the change of colors or materials. But that padding in the icon just breaks the whole thing. This obession of Apple with leaving space is absurd. In Sequoia they added a window management system which (by default) leaves s
