That NPM attack could have been so much worse.

Tigris makes data globally available, durable, and low-latency using a hybrid replication approach that pushes metadata but pulls data on-demand. This talk explains their approach to simplifying global data replication.

This post discusses how dividing an odd number of CPU cores by 2 in JavaScript creates decimal thread counts, causing invalid responses in Anubis. The fix truncates decimal values using Math.trunc.
