Better local require() paths for Node.js

Better local require() paths for Node.js

Problem

When the directory structure of your Node.js application (not library!) has some depth, you end up with a lot of annoying relative paths in your require calls like:

const Article = require('../../../../app/models/article');

Those suck for maintenance and they're ugly.

Possible solutions

cons car and cdr implemented as javascript functions. cribbed from SICP http://mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/full-text/book/book-Z-H-14.html#%_thm_2.4then implemented a bunch of functions just for fun.
// clean and pure:
function cons(x, y) {
return function(pick) {
return pick(x, y);
}
}
// does more stuff:
function cons(x, y) {
var fn = function(pick) {
