Comment on Cloudflare incident on August 21, 2025

Comments

It’s gonna turn out it was one guy on one machine calling “pnpm install” on a fast machine with a 100gbps uplink.

Can we stop with the 2015 jokes already?

I’ve actually had an npm install that failed on my ISP but succeeded with Cloudflare VPN and the OP comment was more or less the explanation.

In 2015 it would have been "npm install"

(Thanks Rauch.)
