Milestone Badge Planning

This will be triggered whenever a user earns a badge. Also, assume all relationships for each query are fulfilled.

1. Find related milestones, relatedMilestones: MilestoneBadges.get({ badgeId: <badgeId> })

• Return early if there are no related milestones.

2. Get list of user's badges, userBadges: BadgeInstances.get({ email: <userEmail> })
3. Get the relative complement of userBadges and relatedMilestones (related milestone badges the user has not earned yet) to make set of unearnedMilestones.

• Return early if the relative complement set is empty.

4. Filter unearnedMilestones by eligibility for fulfillment to get eligibleMilestones

Preface

So this was inspired both by @maxogden and @mcollina's talks at nodeconf.eu 2013. Max spoke about the power (and fun!) of understanding & manipulating with binary data in JavaScript, and Matteo pointed to a protocol called MQTT that manages to a flexible, featureful protocol with only a 2 byte overhead. In looking how they do that (http://public.dhe.ibm.com/software/dw/webservices/ws-mqtt/mqtt-v3r1.html) I noticed they make rich use of the individual bits of those bytes. I realized that off the top of my head I didn't know how I would parse out that information and JavaScript, so I set up about to experimenting to see if I could figure it out without looking up the answer. After figuring it out I wrote a little mini monster protocol & tutorial to maybe help others understand this neat technique!

Now, Let's describe a whole monster in just one byte.

First we need to define the semantics of our bit field. As a reminder, a byte is m
