SSH agent forwarding is great. It allows you to ssh from one server to
another all the while using the ssh-agent running on your local

on the servers you are connecting to in order to hop around.

When you ssh to a remote machine the remote machine talks to your
local ssh-agent through the socket referenced by the SSH_AUTH_SOCK
environment variable.

Update May 2017

Eric Bidelman has documented some of the common workflows possible with headless Chrome over in https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2017/04/headless-chrome.

Windows and Mac users might find using Justin Ribeiro's Docker setup useful here while full support for these platforms is being worked out.

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

Those suck for maintenance and they're ugly.
