A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

This is the actual answer with respect to Cloudflare. Their config system was fucked in November. It's still fucked in December. React's massive CVE just forced them to use it again.
More generally, the issue is a matter of companies forcefully accelerating feature development at the cost of stability, likely due to AI. This is how the company I'm at is like anyway.
