Deep dependencies (npm style) are great when (1) you are relatively memory/bandwidth unconstrained, and (2) your programming style is purely functional. (1) is pretty obvious, so I want to elaborate on (2):

With an object-oriented programming style, you are often passing around instances of your class.

var widget = new Widget
widget.groupWith(otherWidget)

You clearly don't want widget to interact with slightly different versions of itself through otherWidget. (Trying to do so would require that we are extremely disciplined with what the Widget::groupWith method calls on otherWidget.) Asking for this to work is, in my opinion, a fundamentally bad idea from an architectural point of view. Ideally, it should not be possible for two versions of the Widget class to exist in the same app. Bundler on Ruby enforces this, and it's awesome.

General key themes:

• Hiring is really hard. You’re not just hiring a “Rails Engineer” or a “Python Programmer” you’re hiring someone who can help you change the world. Tell them why! Talk about the hard problems you’re solving. 2/3 of these talks give ideas and insight into hiring from sourcing to actual interview processes.

• Rewriting systems is hard. People think they are going to replace their broken down horse and buggie with a bullet train and this often ends up in disaster. Successful rewrites require an incremental approach that takes months/years and often runs way over schedule. 2/3 of these talks go over how to handle rewrites not only from a high level technical perspective but a cultural/management perspective as well.
