What is the recommended way to set up my IRC nickname?

Please follow these steps to set up your nick and configure your client. Check off each step to make sure it's been done:

Select a permanent, master nickname. If the nickname you want is registered but has expired, just ask a staffer and in most cases, we will be happy to drop it for you.

Please avoid using the name of a community project or trademarked entity, to avoid conflicts. Write down your password and be sure to keep the sheet of paper in a safe place.

Register your IRC nick:

csu

git commit --allow-empty -m "empty commit"
git push heroku master
git reset HEAD~
git push -f heroku master

const I  = x => x
const K  = x => y => x
const A  = f => x => f (x)
const T  = x => f => f (x)
const W  = f => x => f (x) (x)
const C  = f => y => x => f (x) (y)
const B  = f => g => x => f (g (x))
const S  = f => g => x => f (x) (g (x))
const S_ = f => g => x => f (g (x)) (x)
const S2 = f => g => h => x => f (g (x)) (h (x))

Don't use VPN services.

No, seriously, don't. You're probably reading this because you've asked what VPN service to use, and this is the answer.

Note: The content in this post does not apply to using VPN for their intended purpose; that is, as a virtual private (internal) network. It only applies to using it as a glorified proxy, which is what every third-party "VPN provider" does.

• There's also this article about VPN services, which is honestly better written (and has more cat pictures!) than my article.

Hi Nicholas,

I saw you tweet about JSX yesterday. It seemed like the discussion devolved pretty quickly but I wanted to share our experience over the last year. I understand your concerns. I've made similar remarks about JSX. When we started using it Planning Center, I led the charge to write React without it. I don't imagine I'd have much to say that you haven't considered but, if it's helpful, here's a pattern that changed my opinion:

The idea that "React is the V in MVC" is disingenuous. It's a good pitch but, for many of us, it feels like in invitation to repeat our history of coupled views. In practice, React is the V and the C. Dan Abramov describes the division as Smart and Dumb Components. At our office, we call them stateless and container components (view-controllers if we're Flux). The idea is pretty simple: components can't

io.js - what you need to know

• io is a fork of node v0.12 (the next stable version of node.js, currently unreleased)
• io.js will be totally compatible with node.js
• the people who created io.js are node core contributors who have different ideas on how to run the project
• it is not a zero-sum game. many core contributors will help maintain both node.js and io.js
