Those of use contributing on the Guide so far have generally been companies where it's not used. I'd love to see a contribution (a few bullet points and/or links) that better covers the basics and reflects how/when it&#x

Let us know if you find the PDF helpful? We could post one on the GitHub repo too — though it's so full of links I'm not sure how useful it is.

I understand the concern. We'll try doing something about that. That said, single page on GitHub for the moment means (1) discoverability directly on github.com, which helps everyone and (2) browser search on the whole guide (which act

Very glad to hear. Its this sentiment exactly that led us to get this started. We all have 100s of valuable tricks and gotchas we learn over the years, but 99% of the time fail to write down and share them helpfully. Do join us on Slack&#x2

There is a bigger debate on micropackages, for sure. But even in the sort term, breaking your build instantly every time third parties make changes is just madness. Reduce operational dependencies as well as library dependencies. This is on

Separate from the discussion of whether super small modules and hundreds or thousands of deps are a good idea, is the point of operational stability. Putting on your devops hat, whatever your dependencies, from a reliability and reproducibi

The value of shares in most private companies can't be assigned a dollar value (since you can't sell it easily), so that column is meaningless for a lot of rows, including most startups. Also it's important to remember cash s

The discussion here has tended to focus on either one or the other of two different facts: You absolutely need to be aware of and manage language and locale settings diligently. This is a big topic, but generally, whenever possible, use UTF

Using C locale is useful when processing very large data files in a shell, e.g. on a server. For example, uniquing or set difference will work many times faster (and doesn't require the slow/fancy collation calculations). But yes,
