Location - The location of the application. Usually just a URL, but the location can contain multiple pieces of information that can be used by an app
pathname - The "file/directory" portion of the URL, like invoices/123
search - The stuff after ? in a URL like /assignments?showGrades=1.
query - A parsed version of search, usually an object but not a standard browser feature.
hash - The # portion of the URL. This is not available to servers in request.url so its client only. By default it means which part of the page the user should be scrolled to, but developers use it for various things.
state - Object associated with a location. Think of it like a hidden URL query. It's state you want to keep with a specific location, but you don't want it to be visible in the URL.

What I Wish I'd Known About Equity Before Joining A Unicorn
Disclaimer: This piece is written anonymously. The names of a few
particular companies are mentioned, but as common examples only.
This is a short write-up on things that I wish I'd known and
considered before joining a private company (aka startup, aka unicorn
in some cases). I'm not trying to make the case that you should
never join a private company, but the power imbalance between
founder and employee is extreme, and that potential candidates would

This is a guide that I wrote to improve the default security of my website https://fortran.io , which has a certificate from LetsEncrypt. I'm choosing to improve HTTPS security and transparency without consideration for legacy browser support.
WARNING: if you mess up settings, lose your certificates, or decide to no longer maintain HTTPS certs, these steps can and will make your domain inaccessible.
I would recommend these steps only if you have a specific need for information security, privacy, and trust with your users, and/or maintain a separate secure.example.com domain which won't mess up your main site. If you've been thinking about
hosting a site on Tor, then this might be a good option, too.
Custom recipe to get macOS 10.12 Sierra running from scratch, setup applications and developer environment. This is very similar (and currently mostly the same) as my 10.11 El Capitan setup recipe and 10.10 Yosemite setup recipe. I am currently tweaking this for 10.12 Sierra and expect to refine this gist over the next few weeks.
I use this gist to keep track of the important software and steps required to have a functioning system after a semi-annual fresh install. I generally reinstall each computer from scratch every 6 months, and I do not perform upgrades between releases.
This keeps the system performing at top speeds, clean of trojans, spyware, and ensures that I maintain good organizational practices for my content and backups. I highly recommend this.
