Why do we have unadorned string literals (native strings) in our codebase?
Doesn't that put us in danger of UnicodeError exceptions?

(1) Your codebase should be using text by default.  At the borders, you convert
    strings from other APIs into text and then use text throughout, only
    converting to bytes (or native strings) when those types are needed for
    another, outside API.

(2) On Python2, text can be safely combined with (or compared to) text[1]_.  Bytes
    can be combined with bytes.  And ascii-only bytes can be combined with text.

Sphinx with Markdown walkthrough for HTML and PDF output

This walkthrough installs Sphinx and configures it to output HTML and PDF from .md. If you install it on a VM, allocate over 25GB storage and multiple processors. You'll need Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, an internet connection, and sudo rights.

brew update
brew install dnsmasq

Auto start with brew

Hey everyone - this is not just a one off thing, there are likely to be many other modules in your dependency trees that are now a burden to their authors. I didn't create this code for altruistic motivations, I created it for fun. I was learning, and learning is fun. I gave it away because it was easy to do so, and because sharing helps learning too. I think most of the small modules on npm were created for reasons like this. However, that was a long time ago. I've since moved on from this module and moved on from that thing too and in the process of moving on from that as well. I've written way better modules than this, the internet just hasn't fully caught up.

otherwise why would he hand over a popular package to a stranger?

If it's not fun anymore, you get literally nothing from maintaining a popular package.

One time, I was working as a dishwasher in a restu
