Browserified (a parody of Stupify https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjKY3gg4T3Q)

Yeah, bringing you another disturbing code base
from the mind of one sick dev who can't tell the difference
and gets minified

I've been waiting my whole life for just one func
And all I needed was just one func

var historicalObject = (function () {

  var _pushProto = function (obj) {

This is a summary and response to Chris Ammerman (@cammerman) re: a twitter thread that I (@nicholascloud) initiated with this post. I will state my intended point, summarize the point I believe that Chris has made, and then offer a more long-form response as Twitter is simply not conducive to such discussions.

First, the following quote, which constitutes the bulk of my initial post:

My intention when posting this was simply to offer Rand's commentary on the growing tendency of people to segregate themselves into "tribes" based on birth culture, or "ethnicity". I do not believe that Rand here refers to food, music, dress, or other minor cultural rituals which everyone adopts by default, but rather to the brand of identity politics that have become common means of social organization. So common, in fact, that people now form tribes around religion, sexual orientatio

The problem

When I list my npm packages with npm ls -g (or without the -g option for a local node_modules directory) I see all installed packages and their dependencies. Like so:

$ npm ls -g
├─┬ anvil.js@0.9.0-RC3.1
│ ├── colors@0.6.0
│ ├─┬ commander@1.1.1
│ │ └── keypress@0.1.0
