Spurred by recent events (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8244700), this is a quick set of jotted-down thoughts about the state of "Semantic" Versioning, and why we should be fighting the good fight against it.

For a long time in the history of software, version numbers indicated the relative progress and change in a given piece of software. A major release (1.x.x) was major, a minor release (x.1.x) was minor, and a patch release was just a small patch. You could evaluate a given piece of software by name + version, and get a feeling for how far away version 2.0.1 was from version 2.8.0.

But Semantic Versioning (henceforth, SemVer), as specified at http://semver.org/, changes this to prioritize a mechanistic understanding of a codebase over a human one. Any "breaking" change to the software must be accompanied with a new major version number. It's alright for robots, but bad for us.

SemVer tries to compress a huge amount of information — the nature of the change, the percentage of users that wil

But I found it still dosen't support some components in Bootstrap 3. Or may be in the future. But I can't wait, so I find a solution to support them. It was inspired by heartcombo/simple_form#531 (comment) .

This is a final solution and I used in my project.

A quick overview of the node.js streams interface with basic examples.

This is based on @brycebaril's presentation, Node.js Streams2 Demystified

Overview

Streams are a first-class construct in Node.js for handling data.

Think of them as as lazy evaluation applied to data.
