chalk is a solid library, and a great upgrade over colors, which was the best option for a long time.

I don't get the point. I have always had a "sql" directory in my project with named `.sql` files for all my queries. Then just load them up with a `require.extensions["sql"]` override, or another mechanism. You shou

for those of you who like the idea but don't want to wait, check out the ergodox. Similar, but slightly more ergonomic design (albeit with a steeper learning curve). The firmware is already open source, and massdrop has an AWESOME UI f

For those that prefer a command line tool, jq has been around for a while and works very well. I can't count how many times jq let me hack together a bunch of commands I normally would have had to write a small program for. e.g small s

Similar things have been done for decades. The Porsche 959 (1986-1989), Toyota Supra MKIV (1993.5-1998 USA), and FD RX-7 all had a sequential turbo setup, but they were all using two turbos of the same size. All The exhaust gas is diverted

Haven't played with InfluxDB much, but it seems great. Congratulations! Now....any chance of open sourcing the retired errplane codebase?

Knockout doesn't have built-ins to wire up UI actions automatically to CRUD calls, but the portion of that you end up having to implement is usually extremely small. As far a wiring up objects to knockout observables you have two optio

great reply, awesome project. I really hope it takes off, github aquires you, and starts rolling these kinds of features into the base product.

For instances where you don't need a full featured browser to get the data you need, Scraperjs using the Cheerio backend should be WAY faster than casper/phantom. I've not used Scraperjs yet, but cheerio is pretty great.
