slice-js

So far...

A talk by @inconshreveable at The Strange Loop 2016 called "Idealized Commit Logs: Code Simplification via Program Slicing" about the amazing tools that can be built with program slicing inspired me to work on this project. Learn more about program slicing here.

This is actual output from slice-js (not yet open source), a program slicing tool that I'm working on right now. I can't wait to work out more kinks, make it more practically useful and show it to you all!

The match-sorter.js file is the transpiled CommonJS version of match-sorter and you can find that here.

Why we dropped Lerna from PouchDB

We dropped Lerna from our monorepo architecture in PouchDB 6.0.0. I got a question about this from @reconbot, so I thought I'd explain our reasoning.

First off, I don't want this post to be read as "Lerna sucks, don't use Lerna." We started out using Lerna, but eventually outgrew it because we wrote our own custom thing. Lerna is still a great idea if you're getting started with monorepos (monorepi?).

Principles of Adult Behavior

Be patient. No matter what.
Don’t badmouth: Assign responsibility, not blame. Say nothing of another you wouldn’t say to him.
Never assume the motives of others are, to them, less noble than yours are to you.
Expand your sense of the possible.
Don’t trouble yourself with matters you truly cannot change.
Expect no more of anyone than you can deliver yourself.
Tolerate ambiguity.
Laugh at yourself frequently.

OS X 10.11 (El Capitan) / Node.js and io.js Developer Environment

Custom recipe to get OS X 10.11 El Capitan running from scratch with useful applications and Node.js Developer environment. I use this gist to keep track of the important software and steps required to have a functioning system after fresh install.

OBSOLETE

This entire guide is based on an old version of Homebrew/Node and no longer applies. It was only ever intended to fix a specific error message which has since been fixed. I've kept it here for historical purposes, but it should no longer be used. Homebrew maintainers have fixed things and the options mentioned don't exist and won't work.

I still believe it is better to manually install npm separately since having a generic package manager maintain another package manager is a bad idea, but the instructions below don't explain how to do that.

Fixing npm On Mac OS X for Homebrew Users

Installing node through Homebrew can cause problems with npm for globally installed packages. To fix it quickly, use the solution below. An explanation is also included at the end of this document.

	#
	# Ubuntu Node.js Dockerfile
	#
	# https://github.com/dockerfile/ubuntu/blob/master/Dockerfile
	# https://docs.docker.com/examples/nodejs_web_app/
	#

	# Pull base image.
	FROM ubuntu:14.04

	# first:
	lsbom -f -l -s -pf /var/db/receipts/org.nodejs.pkg.bom \| while read f; do sudo rm /usr/local/${f}; done
	sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/node /usr/local/lib/node_modules /var/db/receipts/org.nodejs.*

	# To recap, the best way (I've found) to completely uninstall node + npm is to do the following:

	# go to /usr/local/lib and delete any node and node_modules
	cd /usr/local/lib
	sudo rm -rf node*

	const PENDING = 0;
	const FULFILLED = 1;
	const REJECTED = 2;

	function PromiseState(component, stateKey, initial) {

	this.component = component;
	this.stateKey = stateKey;

	var self = this;

	fi

	# Piece-by-Piece Explanation:
	# the if condition makes sure we only screw with $PROMPT_COMMAND if we're in an iTerm environment
	# iTerm happens to give each session a unique $ITERM_SESSION_ID we can use, $ITERM_PROFILE is an option too
	# the $PROMPT_COMMAND environment variable is executed every time a command is run
