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:

1. 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.
2. If the package is used in an async context, you could use await import(…) from CommonJS instead of require(…).
3. Stay on the existing version of the package until you can move to ESM.

XDG - Base Directory Specification

Directories

Base

The intended use-case for BaseDirectories is to query the paths of user-invisible standard directories that have been defined according to the conventions of the operating system the library is running on.

• SC1000 $ is not used specially and should therefore be escaped.
• SC1001 This \o will be a regular 'o' in this context.
• SC1003 Want to escape a single quote? echo 'This is how it'\''s done'.
• SC1004 This backslash+linefeed is literal. Break outside single quotes if you just want to break the line.
• SC1007 Remove space after = if trying to assign a value (or for empty string, use var='' ... ).
• SC1008 This shebang was unrecognized. ShellCheck only supports sh/bash/dash/ksh. Add a 'shell' directive to specify.
• SC1009 The mentioned parser error was in ...
• SC1010 Use semicolo

To understand these things I would recommend using nix-repl:

"A little bit of slope makes up for a lot of y-intercept"

01/13/2012. From a lecture by Professor John Ousterhout at Stanford, class CS140

Here's today's thought for the weekend. A little bit of slope makes up for a lot of Y-intercept.

Git DMZ Flow

I've been asked a few times over the last few months to put together a full write-up of the Git workflow we use at RichRelevance (and at Precog before), since I have referenced it in passing quite a few times in tweets and in person. The workflow is appreciably different from GitFlow and its derivatives, and thus it brings with it a different set of tradeoffs and optimizations. To that end, it would probably be helpful to go over exactly what workflow benefits I find to be beneficial or even necessary.

• Two developers working on independent features must never be blocked by each other
  • No code freeze! Ever! For any reason!
• A developer must be able to base derivative work on another developer's work, without waiting for any third party
• Two developers working on inter-dependent features (or even the same feature) must be able to do so without interference from (or interfering with) any other parties
• Developers must be able to work on multiple features simultaneously, or at lea
