My experience is that almost 100% do sign up. Signing up is not a barrier. Funny statistic I had in a game was that while almost 100% did sign up, only 50% of those entered the game. After highlighting the "enter game" button, tha

Those who think of errors as exceptions can further be divided into group 2a) Those who prefer Promises syntax. And group 2b) Those who prefer async/await syntax. Also don't forget about co-routines: co(function* () {

I understand there are two sides/groups here: 1) Those who think errors are important to control flow, and 2) Those who think errors are exceptions to control flow. If you are in group 2 both Promises and async/await will give you

You use "npm install" to place modules in node_modules, and "npm update" to conveniently update them. But you have to either 1) trust the maintainers of the modules or 2) review the code changes.

The decentralized part of Git and Mercurial is nice (eg. no need for Github et.al), but I think most software projects using Git or Mercurial do have a centralized server/hub...

It can be a lot of work creating an isolated dev/test environment if you already have a large app that communicate with a lot of services. But if you can that is preferable as the test will create strange artifacts - but those systems

It is possible to write tests in a single-file program. You could for example have a -test flag that runs all the tests when the program starts. It's never too late to introduce tests - the next bug you fix, start by writing a test t
