There are some really big changes that are starting to unfold across the web ecosystem in the next few months, and we have a rare opportunity to affect a major change to the way that we perceive and build software.

These terms did not have their own wikipedia pages

• Bleeding edge: Operating with cutting-edge technologies that are still untested and/or unstable, leading to cost overruns, under-performance, and/or delayed delivery
• Lost in the weeds: Decision-making stalled by focusing too much on tiny details
• Revolving door: An organization or team with high staff turnover that struggles to be effective, especially in maintaining continuity or business knowledge
• Top-down management: A style of management where decisions and ideas too often start at the top and are passed down through successive levels
• Typecasting: Locking successful employees into overly-safe, narrowly-defined, predictable roles based on their past successes rather than their potential

This is the timer model I built for the werewolves.io project a few months ago.

The entire project was built on the back of state.js and backbone.

What was interesting about this timer model, and most of the werewolves project actually, is that it formed part of
a distributed state machine. The timer state changes were streamed over websockets to each of the clients, and when
the server manipulated the timer, it would propagate to all connected browser tabs.

I also needed to be able to serialize the state to be able to set the initial data for each new load, and I also
had to make some considerations towards eventually storing the active game in something like redis, to survive
