Pure ESM package

The package that linked you here is now pure ESM. It cannot be require()'d from CommonJS.

This means you have the following choices:

Use ESM yourself. (preferred)
Use import foo from 'foo' instead of const foo = require('foo') to import the package. You also need to put "type": "module" in your package.json and more. Follow the below guide.
If the package is used in an async context, you could use await import(…) from CommonJS instead of require(…).
Stay on the existing version of the package until you can move to ESM.

I am assuming you are here because like me, you installed a bazillion different python interpreters on mac and the whole thing is a spagetti. Today, I finally fixed my python installation. Whatever I install for python2 or python3 using pip JUST.WORKS.. My god! finally.

What the hell?

Here is what I had messed up, which you also probably did:

I had too many different python interpreters
Too many different symlinks which I lost track of
almost no package I installed with pip worked without a headache
any attempt to fix using online resources made it worse.

Falsehoods programmers believe about time

This is a compiled list of falsehoods programmers tend to believe about working with time.

Don't re-invent a date time library yourself. If you think you understand everything about time, you're probably doing it wrong.

Falsehoods

There are always 24 hours in a day.
February is always 28 days long.
Any 24-hour period will always begin and end in the same day (or week, or month).

What forces layout / reflow

All of the below properties or methods, when requested/called in JavaScript, will trigger the browser to synchronously calculate the style and layout*. This is also called reflow or layout thrashing, and is common performance bottleneck.

Generally, all APIs that synchronously provide layout metrics will trigger forced reflow / layout. Read on for additional cases and details.

Element APIs

Getting box metrics

elem.offsetLeft, elem.offsetTop, elem.offsetWidth, elem.offsetHeight, elem.offsetParent

Securely erase an external disk using `dd` on OSX

Plug in your SD card, HDD, or other block device and then use the following command to see which /dev/diskN node it's located on:

diskutil list

Unmount the disk where â€œNâ€� is the number of the disk taken from the above command:

	const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');
	const { defineSupportCode } = require('cucumber')

	defineSupportCode(({ Before, Given, When, Then }) => {
	Before({ timeout: 60 * 1000 }, async function testCase() {
	this.browser = await puppeteer.launch()
	})

	Given('I am on google with puppeteer', { timeout: 60 * 1000 }, async function testCase() {
	this.page = await this.browser.newPage()

	// Add on element with overflow
	-webkit-mask-image: -webkit-radial-gradient(white, black);
