It encourages sites to keep using a bad password validation scheme in place. A big readme pointing out that it's far better to have a complexity requirement and indicator than it is to have arbitrary password character requirements.
I don't think it was so much spam, but it did seem to cut off right at the part where I actually wanted more detail. I'd actually almost rather see an interview transcript, and wish the article had included it.
All of that said, this is definitely an article geared towards managers, not so much for developers, unless you're in a smaller shop and trying to champion change.
My sister has only daughters, my mom has only sisters, half of my aunts only have daughters, my grandmother only has sisters... I've heard them say "miss you guys" to each other more times in my life than I can count... it's gender neutral enough.
In fact, I have yet to see an actual *woman* take offense to this phrase, it's always some SJW man that seems over-sensitive to it. I saw someone bring it up in #node.js over someone asking "mind if I ask you guys a question?" once. Everyone seemed to kowtow to the statement, I think I'm the only one in the channel that challenged it and stand by that assertion. If someone decides that the word "roses" is suddenly offensive, it shouldn't be society that necessarily adapts.
Personally, I find the term "git" pretty offensive, but I'm not championing changing the name. The biggest irony is when "github" forced the change of a repo that had a term deemed offensive... There's a matter of intent and context to consider... "Only guys will get it, chicks just can't understand." would be offensive, and I understand that... in this context it's used as a generic pronoun.
I self-identify as a 68yo Black Lesbian Woman whose personal pronoun is "my lord and master".
Pretty cool, but wonder how it handles synthetic events compared to react... It seems to me synthetic events and supported nodes should be as close to react as possible.
I'm also curious if this supports svg and associated elements as well.
I think it depends on the size and complexity of the original application, as well as the skill, experience and knowledge of the team(s) doing the work.
In this case, it looks like around 2.5 years for cars.com... My experience tells me at least 6 months for a moderately complex application. I've replaced a few microservices in days.
Just a mention, it's best to use connection pooling with your DB layer... many will have this functionality in the box... you create your pool and execute against the pool.
Creating and closing lots of connections leads to poor performance.
I would think that `require('please-upgrade-node')('./your-package-root')` would be more appropriate, than a nested require, this way the test can run, then the please-upgrade can simply require(...) on its' own.
*sigh* this falls into the same traps over and over again... See the following...
