The tao of node? It reminds me of this story about a secretive master kung fu artist who perfected his technique but taught his style to no one. Yet the master still wanted to document his style in a kung fu manual. So he did, but as a security measure, he wrote everything backwards so that anyone reading it would get the wrong set of instructions. If a move involved a user blocking a hit with his arm he would write down that the hit should be blocked with his foot. Every move was a complete reversal of what should be done. One day a thief stole the kung fu manual with the goal of reading it and becoming a great kung fu master. The thief read the manual day and knight and practiced just as much. And guess what? the thief became an incredible master surpassing the original author himself. Nobody could figure out his hilarious style, when you tried to punch him in his face his foot would immediately come up to deflect the punch. Everyone was WTF? How does this shit work? The thief ended up founding a kung fu school and taught everyone this style... proliferating the backwards art all across China, much like the same way Node has proliferated across the world. I made the last part up because I thought it would be a more apt analogy. What actually happened is the thief went crazy because the the backward moves caused his chi to spin in the opposite direction... driving him insane. Anyway, this is what the Tao of Node reminds me of. I should also say so does the Tao of CSS and HTML and maybe the Tao of the entire web reminds me of this story. Do these things really need to be associated with Tao as if it's some great art or philosophy? Feels a bit pretentious, but that's just me.
