I am learning too, that writing and SW development have some things in common: Orgnazing things is one of the hardest things to do. This is a helpful blog post for me for sure. So, thanks for sharing!
nice to see. last year, I started working on a port of LamerNews to NodeJS https://github.com/mulderp/echojs - still the encryption of credentials seemed not 100% compatible, and I did not delve too deep into it.
Many news here are about the type "X is better than Y because Z uses it.". I like this post (and your comment above), since it teaches something about X without reference to Z (a framework). But I wrote this too fast maybe, so apologies if it was confusing.
this is a great showcase for open-source hardware. Also yesterday in Munich, there was an IoT meetup, where they explored the connected beer mug for the oktoberfest: https://www.flickr.com/photos/tamberg/15095376197/in/set-72157630315153872 .
apart from this, I am wondering if others have experiences to share about using the Spark dev kit with Node.js?
