JFC, what the hell? $200 million for a Podcasting company?

Yeah, there's a bubble.

"That app, revealed yesterday by TechCrunch, was distributed outside of the App Store using Apple’s enterprise program, which allows developers to use special certificates to install more powerful apps onto iPhones. Those apps are only supposed to be used by a company’s employees, however, and Facebook had been distributing its tracking app to customers. Facebook later said it would shut down the app.

Pro-tip: Do not fuck with Apple.

Strange things afoot in MS-land.

The only proper method for software distribution is on quarter inch tape. I don't make the rules.

I think the one thing that Node / NPM needs is a standard library. It's what helped keep everyone in C / Python from re-implementing everything from scratch. It also helped focus the efforts on improving the standard library.

And, no doubt, this bit of standardization would signal that Node / NPM was no longer for the "cool kids" and they'd flock to something else and re-learn these lessons over and over again.

Standardization doesn't have to mean ossification.
