Git's `fixup!` commits are undersold and underused. I'd love to see more people use them: create messy work-in-progress commits during review, then squash them cleanly before merge—without manually editing the rebase file.
Set `rebase.autoSquash true` once and forget about it.

I picked up the domain node.institute a while back, intending to do something fun; but never did. I'm about to let it expire but would prefer it to go to a good home. Email me and make a case if you want it: r@va.gg.

The`goingnative` workshopper, debuted @ NodeConf 2014 (IIRC), just got its first release in more than 4 years! @ccarruitero put in the hard work to make it work again with modern Node.js.
If you want to learn how to build C add-ons, take it for a spin.

Made minor improvements to my simple Node.js install script gist.github.com/rvagg/742f81…, I use this on macOS to stay updated; on Linux, snapcraft.io/node magically keeps it updated for me.

Quite proud of Polendina, a tool for speedy and uncomplicated browser testing for JavaScript libraries from the command-line. Supports Mocha, Tape and even bare sync and async `throw`ing test runners, plus TypeScript compat & more. github.com/rvagg/polendina

The "Unofficial Builds" @Nodejs project ships some binaries that don't fit into official build set. In unofficial-builds.nodejs.org… there are Node 12.1.0 binaries for linux-armv6l, linux-x64-musl, linux-x86 and an experimental win-arm64 that's making its debut.
