I think we might be in trouble, people...

The perfect illustration of Stack Overflow's ecosystem in its natural habitat! A newbie asks how to select DOM elements by class name in JavaScript—a simple question with a built-in solution. But watch what happens: The top answer (1000 votes): "Just install Node.js, Bower, jQuery, and five other dependencies to use a simple jQuery selector!" Meanwhile, the correct native JavaScript solution ( document.getElementsByClassName() ) gets downvoted to oblivion at -1 votes. This is why your "quick 5-minute fix" turns into a 3-hour dependency nightmare. The JavaScript ecosystem in a nutshell—why use 1 line of vanilla JS when you can install the entire npm registry instead?
