I have found this interesting for debugging, but also fun to hear web pages

Summary of the Node.js Board controversy from what I can gather.

All the redactions (and hidden/private conversations) has made it very hard for the outside to figure out what has occured.

---

Node.js Community Committee wanted Rod out:

• nodejs/TSC#310
  • https://web.archive.org/web/20170821212745/https://github.com/nodejs/TSC/issues/310 (early archive before redactions)
• http://wayback.archive.org/web/20170825103107/https://github.com/nodejs/TSC/issues/310

The purpose of this talk is to introduce you to a sublime and surprisingly durable design pattern, that strangely has no name. It does not appear in the Gamma et al Gang of Four book bearing the title "Design Patterns", though you might see it there in many guises if you look closely and creatively. This design pattern may not change your life, but it certainly has tilted mine toward better.

You've heard of function calls, like f(x).

Objects in this language are defined as types. They have properties with default values that can be overridden in the constructor literal syntax.

There are no methods, but instead have conditional message handlers. The handlers are scoped by the state of the internal properties. Depending on the state the value is in, different messages can be responded to in different ways.

Also values can actively delete themselves causing all references to them to be deleted and replaces with a null type that doesn't respond to anything. (thus freeing up memory)

Installing

Install FFmpeg with homebrew. You'll need to install it with a couple flags for webm and the AAC audio codec.

brew install ffmpeg --with-libvpx --with-libvorbis --with-fdk-aac --with-opus

io.js - what you need to know

• io is a fork of node v0.12 (the next stable version of node.js, currently unreleased)
• io.js will be totally compatible with node.js
• the people who created io.js are node core contributors who have different ideas on how to run the project
• it is not a zero-sum game. many core contributors will help maintain both node.js and io.js
