This week's episode takes us to Shimmer Lake where we take a dive into this crime drama and explore why it's so hard to separate actors from their iconic roles.  We also delve into the idea of non-linear storytelling and why most movies seem to gloss over just how hard it is to dig a hole large enough to bury a car.

It's a movie! It's a European capital! It's a psychological syndrome! Ethan Hawke(Gattaca) plays a bank robber who takes Noomi Rapace(Lamb) hostage in this 2018 heist comedy. Based on the actual events from 1973 the hostages eventually take the side of the robbers versus the police, which leads to the coining of the phrase Stockholm Syndrome to explain the psychology behind it. Host Wyndham Jennings will talk about the actual robbery, other cases of Stockholm syndrome, Steve McQueen's Mustang, and why films based on true stories should have a "Where Are They Now?" segment at the end. Other films to check out: Shimmer Lake, Dog Day Afternoon, The Town, Trapped in Paradise, Queenpins, Have a Nice Day, Eat Your Bones, Bullit, Vanishing Point, Badlands --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/celluloidfeverdreams/support

It's Noir-vember  and we have so many films to choose from. William Friedkin's "To Live and Die in LA" (1985) is the straight-forward story about a sometimes good, sometimes bad cop's all out hunt for a counterfeiter who killed his partner. Willem Defoe steals the movie as the villain. NetFlix's bank robbery gone bad film "Shimmer Lake" (2017) is told in reverse order. While it's not exactly "Memento", it has its moments and a nice little pay off in the end. What do you want from an 82 minute movie?Next, John Cassevete's "The Killing of a Chinese Bookie" (1976) and Michael Keaton's directorial debut, "Merry Gentlemen" (2008).Thanks for listening!Did we get something wrong?

In honor of Halloween, the theme for this week is horror. "The Haunting" (1963) is a film about a creepy old house that may or may not be a living entity (1:52). No ghosts or gore, but plenty of psychological terror for those who dare spend the night. Based on Shirley Jackson's "The Haunting of Hill House". "Suspiria" (1977) comes from Italy and is a pure mess but has enough uniqueness to keep one's interest (33:40). It's not every day you see death by a room full of razor wire. Both Matt and Adam thought the director saved the day on this one and made it worthwhile. Beware, it's dubbed in English.Next we kick off Noir-vember with "To Live and Die in LA" (1985) and Shimmer Lake (2017).Thanks for listening!Did we get something wrong? Have your own recommendations?

AiA 146: 10 Ways to Lose a Developer with Bonnie Brennan and Keith Stewart On today's episode of Adventures in Angular, we have panelists Ward Bell, Alyssa Nicoll, Joe Eames, and Charles Max Wood. We have special guests, Bonnie Brennan of ngHouston and Keith Stewart of CollabNet. The discussion ranges from the Most Common Reason for People to Leave to Mandatory Happy Hour that companies have! Stay tuned! [00:01:05] Introduction to Bonnie Brennan and Keith Stewart Bonnie is an Angular architect at Houston, Texas. She is the founder of ngHouston. She also runs Code Bridge Texas with her daughter. They do free programming workshops for girls. She’s going to be at a couple of conferences coming up. They’re going to AngularMix and FrontEnd Connect with Alyssa. Keith, on the other hand, works for a company called CollabNet as a UI Tech Lead. He is working mostly on UI’s for DevOps-related products. He is also a frequent panelist on the ngHouston Meet up broadcast that Bonnie runs and a curator on ngDoc.io with Alyssa and Joe. [00:03:20] – Most common reason for people to leave If Bonnie has to narrow down, she thinks it’s the tech stack. Some companies have a lot of legacy code that needs to be maintained but at the same time, when you are a developer who spends a lot of time on emerging technologies, you want to be working on this new stuff that you’re learning. While working on this course on how to find a better dev job, Charles surveyed people on Skype or the phone. They feel stuck and not moving ahead. [00:10:50] – In the culture, if you’re not a performer, then, you’re not trying hard enough? Joe thinks that we have this problem in this industry that if you are not going to be blogging and speaking at conferences, then, you just don’t belong. Ward also thinks that you don’t have to be a performer to contribute to a great development environment. But for Bonnie, being a performer is not exactly about getting up on stage. It really is about caring enough. Alyssa tells about the gradient of the type of person. There’s a person like, “Okay, this is just a job for me but I still take pride in my work.” But if you’re in the mindset of “Hey, I have kids or I have a wife outside of this. But I’m still giving it my all while I’m here.” Then, it’s perfectly reasonable. Keith also tells about the two different types of people. The generalists, the folks who are on the bleeding-edge, they don’t necessarily master one of those, and the other folks who get really good at one particular thing that they’re working on. Ward cites an instance where you’re in an enterprise and you have a lot of very important legacy systems that need a person who cares about the legacy stuff. You can’t have a company that has all people who have to be on the bleeding-edge all the time. [00:18:55] – Type of developers that companies want and how to keep them Ward mentions how professional growth is important. The opportunities for people to work on the leading technologies is not always something that every company can offer but they can sprinkle these opportunities here and there. It can be done but if it’s not, there are things that you can do with some of the legacy applications to make them more palatable to work on. Charles suggests to companies to show the developers that you care, you are listening. It’s on the roadmap and you’re going to get there. [00:22:55] – Is boss on your list of Ways to Lose a Developer? Bonnie can’t think of the time that she has left because of her boss. But the company culture is an important thing because however, the upper management feels about culture, that’s going to trickle down. One issue about Charles’ boss is that he is very controlling. Another issue is he was specifying the requirements for the application and he wasn’t very good at staying consistent with it. They wind up building one thing but gets angry with them because they hadn’t built what he wanted, even though it was exactly what he specified. Bonnie also had a situation similar to Charles where the project requirements kept changing while she was writing the code. If you feel like you’re going to work to be frustrated again, it doesn’t matter what technology you’re using, it doesn’t matter how you like the rest of your co-workers, eventually, you’re going to burn out. [00:27:00] – Not being paid enough When you’re not making a whole lot of money, Bonnie thinks it can be a big deal but it’s not the biggest issue. For Keith, if he would be weighing two companies, he’ll also choose the company with the good tech stack instead of the company which pays a little higher. But Ward thinks that it is a privilege to be in an industry where even in the low-end of the salary rank, you tend to be pretty comfortable. [00:29:55] – Effective ways to show your appreciation to a developer Bonnie refers to an instance when the boss gives credit for a developer in a meeting on how he did a great job on a feature. And on the flipside, the worst kind of boss is the boss that says, “Look what I did.” But Keith finds it a difficult question because it might be different for other people. Some people like to be called out in a meeting and say, “You did a good job.” But some folks would like that to be a little more behind the scenes. Or some folks might be looking for a bonus instead. So you might be able to read your people. For Alyssa, she likes the boss who regularly checks in even if it’s not a pat on the back because it just shows that they care about the process. Ward speaks of the boss who asks your opinion on an important decision, technical or otherwise. [00:37:40] – Recruitment Keith never likes the recruitment process of companies which bring a lot of people in and give them coding exercises on a whiteboard. So they built a small application that’s similar to the application that the folks will actually be doing. [00:41:05] – Remote vs. working in an office Alyssa loves being remote. She mentions she has ADHD so she was distracted in an office setting. It’s important for her to set up her environment to be more productive. Bonnie also has been working remote for 3 years now. It used to be difficult to communicate but now, we can just use video call. But Keith finds people more engaged in a meeting when it’s in person. An office space can add a lot of value to a team. Ward points out that you can also be distracted as well by working remote. In Google, they all work in the office. Even though they have open office plans, sitting right next to each other, they trust the people that they can do well in that environment. People put on headphones when they’re really focusing on something. [00:53:20] – Mandatory happy hour Companies which have a snack room, ping pong table, foosball can contribute to company culture and make it a much more attractive place for developers. But Alyssa gets scared a little bit when programmers go overboard and sometimes you’re not into it as much as they are.

AiA 146: 10 Ways to Lose a Developer with Bonnie Brennan and Keith Stewart On today's episode of Adventures in Angular, we have panelists Ward Bell, Alyssa Nicoll, Joe Eames, and Charles Max Wood. We have special guests, Bonnie Brennan of ngHouston and Keith Stewart of CollabNet. The discussion ranges from the Most Common Reason for People to Leave to Mandatory Happy Hour that companies have! Stay tuned! [00:01:05] Introduction to Bonnie Brennan and Keith Stewart Bonnie is an Angular architect at Houston, Texas. She is the founder of ngHouston. She also runs Code Bridge Texas with her daughter. They do free programming workshops for girls. She’s going to be at a couple of conferences coming up. They’re going to AngularMix and FrontEnd Connect with Alyssa. Keith, on the other hand, works for a company called CollabNet as a UI Tech Lead. He is working mostly on UI’s for DevOps-related products. He is also a frequent panelist on the ngHouston Meet up broadcast that Bonnie runs and a curator on ngDoc.io with Alyssa and Joe. [00:03:20] – Most common reason for people to leave If Bonnie has to narrow down, she thinks it’s the tech stack. Some companies have a lot of legacy code that needs to be maintained but at the same time, when you are a developer who spends a lot of time on emerging technologies, you want to be working on this new stuff that you’re learning. While working on this course on how to find a better dev job, Charles surveyed people on Skype or the phone. They feel stuck and not moving ahead. [00:10:50] – In the culture, if you’re not a performer, then, you’re not trying hard enough? Joe thinks that we have this problem in this industry that if you are not going to be blogging and speaking at conferences, then, you just don’t belong. Ward also thinks that you don’t have to be a performer to contribute to a great development environment. But for Bonnie, being a performer is not exactly about getting up on stage. It really is about caring enough. Alyssa tells about the gradient of the type of person. There’s a person like, “Okay, this is just a job for me but I still take pride in my work.” But if you’re in the mindset of “Hey, I have kids or I have a wife outside of this. But I’m still giving it my all while I’m here.” Then, it’s perfectly reasonable. Keith also tells about the two different types of people. The generalists, the folks who are on the bleeding-edge, they don’t necessarily master one of those, and the other folks who get really good at one particular thing that they’re working on. Ward cites an instance where you’re in an enterprise and you have a lot of very important legacy systems that need a person who cares about the legacy stuff. You can’t have a company that has all people who have to be on the bleeding-edge all the time. [00:18:55] – Type of developers that companies want and how to keep them Ward mentions how professional growth is important. The opportunities for people to work on the leading technologies is not always something that every company can offer but they can sprinkle these opportunities here and there. It can be done but if it’s not, there are things that you can do with some of the legacy applications to make them more palatable to work on. Charles suggests to companies to show the developers that you care, you are listening. It’s on the roadmap and you’re going to get there. [00:22:55] – Is boss on your list of Ways to Lose a Developer? Bonnie can’t think of the time that she has left because of her boss. But the company culture is an important thing because however, the upper management feels about culture, that’s going to trickle down. One issue about Charles’ boss is that he is very controlling. Another issue is he was specifying the requirements for the application and he wasn’t very good at staying consistent with it. They wind up building one thing but gets angry with them because they hadn’t built what he wanted, even though it was exactly what he specified. Bonnie also had a situation similar to Charles where the project requirements kept changing while she was writing the code. If you feel like you’re going to work to be frustrated again, it doesn’t matter what technology you’re using, it doesn’t matter how you like the rest of your co-workers, eventually, you’re going to burn out. [00:27:00] – Not being paid enough When you’re not making a whole lot of money, Bonnie thinks it can be a big deal but it’s not the biggest issue. For Keith, if he would be weighing two companies, he’ll also choose the company with the good tech stack instead of the company which pays a little higher. But Ward thinks that it is a privilege to be in an industry where even in the low-end of the salary rank, you tend to be pretty comfortable. [00:29:55] – Effective ways to show your appreciation to a developer Bonnie refers to an instance when the boss gives credit for a developer in a meeting on how he did a great job on a feature. And on the flipside, the worst kind of boss is the boss that says, “Look what I did.” But Keith finds it a difficult question because it might be different for other people. Some people like to be called out in a meeting and say, “You did a good job.” But some folks would like that to be a little more behind the scenes. Or some folks might be looking for a bonus instead. So you might be able to read your people. For Alyssa, she likes the boss who regularly checks in even if it’s not a pat on the back because it just shows that they care about the process. Ward speaks of the boss who asks your opinion on an important decision, technical or otherwise. [00:37:40] – Recruitment Keith never likes the recruitment process of companies which bring a lot of people in and give them coding exercises on a whiteboard. So they built a small application that’s similar to the application that the folks will actually be doing. [00:41:05] – Remote vs. working in an office Alyssa loves being remote. She mentions she has ADHD so she was distracted in an office setting. It’s important for her to set up her environment to be more productive. Bonnie also has been working remote for 3 years now. It used to be difficult to communicate but now, we can just use video call. But Keith finds people more engaged in a meeting when it’s in person. An office space can add a lot of value to a team. Ward points out that you can also be distracted as well by working remote. In Google, they all work in the office. Even though they have open office plans, sitting right next to each other, they trust the people that they can do well in that environment. People put on headphones when they’re really focusing on something. [00:53:20] – Mandatory happy hour Companies which have a snack room, ping pong table, foosball can contribute to company culture and make it a much more attractive place for developers. But Alyssa gets scared a little bit when programmers go overboard and sometimes you’re not into it as much as they are.

There is more than meets the eye with this week's podcast. By that, we mean there's a lot that we talk about. Christopher Cross and Dylan Schwan review Ana Lily Amirpour's The Bad Batch starring Suki Waterhouse and a cannibal Jason Momoa. We talk about the weirdness of the film, its style over substance approach, and why sometimes just a cool aesthetic is not enough to sustain a film. Dylan also saw a lot over the week, including the entire first season of Glow, as well as Nobody Speak: Trials of the Free Press, and Berlin Syndrome. Meanwhile, both Chris and Dylan watched Shimmer Lake and Chris spent most of his week watching all the Transformers movies including Transformers: The Last Knight. That's a lot of stuff to talk about and still the podcast managed to be under 90 minutes! There's also our usual Blu-ray releases of the week, including our pick, Straw Dogs on Criterion. The news starts off with a showstopper by talking about a sequel to The Accountant being a thing, and we discuss the announcement of Ron Howard as the replacement for Lord and Miller on the Han Solo film. Really, there's a lot to talk about this week and we did our best to keep it nice and succinct because next week we're going to have plenty of new movies to dissect. We'll be reviewing Baby Driver for sure, but expect discussion of The Big Sick as well as probably some Beguiled and Okja talk.

JSJ 267 Node 8 with Mikeal Rogers, Arunesh Chandra, and Anna Henningsen On today’s episode of JavaScript Jabber we have panelists Joe Eames, AJ O’Neil, Amiee Knight and Charles Max Wood and we are talking about Node 8. To help us we have special guests Mikeal Rodgers, Arunesh Chandra, and Anna Henningsen. It’s going to be a great show. Tune in. [1:56] Is Node 8 just an update or is there more? More than just an update Two main points: Improved Prana support Native API Native APIs are helpful for Native Add-ons. For both the consumer and the developer side. Prior to update these Node Native modules ran in C++ and bound to specific to Node 8 APIs. Causes these modules to be updated or reconciled every time these modules are rereleased. Creates burden for module maintainers. Creates friction in upgrading Node versions in production departments. If you have a deployment depending on a certain Native module, some of the modules may not get updated in time when updating your Node versions. Keeping people from updating Node. Creates compatibility issues with Node users not using Node 8 Experimental support for a Native layer in Node 8 to eliminate these issues as much as possible. Important milestone for the module ecosystem. You can write extensions for Node in C++ and it decouples V8 so you can use something else on the front. Modules takes dependency on V8 API specific to a particular version. So if V8 changes your module will be extracted from that. As a side benefit, you can have another VM to take advantage of that. Major version upgrades mean updating Native modules and usually some of those modules haven’t updated to the newest version of Node and be complicated. Deep dependency wise, about 30% depends on a Native module somewhere In the future, with the Native API, you’ll be able to update Node without breaking modules. [5:51] What kind of work went into this? Most of the work was in C++ First thing that was done was, they looked at the top dependent Native modules in the ecosystem. Looked for what kind of V8 exposure they had and cataloged it Looked at how these APIs and what their purposes were Looked for a way to extract them so that they are part of Node Core Created neutral APIs, now part of the Node core. All C APIs Also has a C++ wrapper to improves usability of the API. [7:17] What’s an example of what you can do with these APIs? Native modules allows for tighter integration and better module performance Specific APIs that you can use in V8 that isn’t available through JavaScript If you have a C++ variable code and you want to expose a variable into JavaScript, that is V8 API note a Node 8 API Having it bound directly to the VM was something they wanted for a long time Google controls V8 and they bind to V8 Created a better relationship with Google starting in IOJS Also worked with Microsoft with their Node Shocker work. Same with SpiderMonkey SpiderNode is in the works [9:23] Have you guys done any testing for performance? Some. There is a performance working group. There is a need to stay on top of V8 V8 team has focused on new language features Many features have been added over the years Many didn’t come in optimized The performance profile has changed with these features If you’re using new language features, you will see a performance boost In core, still tracking down code that was specific to the old optimizer and rewriting i to work the new optimizer Turbo C compiler hasn’t landed yet, but is to come. Will have a completely different performance profile In most real world applications it will be faster Waiting on the release to take a version of V8 to make it easier to upgrade features in the future [11:28] Are the new features picked up from V8 or implemented in Node? It’s all in V8 Better longterm support Promises are made better in Node as a platform Added new method called util.promisify() Implementation comes from V8 Allows for more optimization for promises in Node core Promise support for the one-deprecated domains module. [13:02] Is there anything more than NMP 5? First off, delete your NMP cache. It’s in your home directory usually with a .npm extension [14:09] What are the new features in V8? Unlimited heap sizes, previously had a 4gb limit. No fixed limit. [14:09] Will you see things like chakra come out tuned for servers? Profiles of a server for application process are getting smaller Getting cut into containers and VMs and micro services Vms that have cold boot time and run quickly in a strained environment is looking more like what we will see in the future Yes, especially if you’re using cloud functions V8 is optimized for phones, but Chakra is even more so Looking for opportunities for VMs can be solely optimized for a device target Node take advantage of that VM VM neutrality is an interesting concept VM Vendors trying to optimize it based on workloads of a server Opens opportunities for Node Node Chakra has been proved to iOS. You can cut off jitting off which was a requirement to be able to be in the Apple App Store Node is not just for servers anymore Node doesn’t take a long time configuring it When a developer runs code on an IoT or a mobile app they don’t control the VM that is bundled, they run it on top of Node and it just works. VM neutrality gives a new vector, so you can swam a whole different VM [18:44] When running different engines like iOS vs Android, does the profile change? What it comes down to is if it’s eventive programming The browser is an eventive environment, is very efficient waiting for things to happen before it does something The way that we program servers and nodes are the same as well the basics are the same generally environmental differences exist but the programming model is usually the same What does impact it is memory and processor and hardware and things like that That is where tuning the VM comes into play [20:29] What is the new Async Hooks API used for? Node has been lacking for automated inspection of Async Hook No way for Node to tell you when scheduling and beginning of an Async operation. Hook helps with that it’s a way for developers to write debugging features Node tells the application that it’s working with Asynchronous way. The embedded inspector has been embedded since Node 6 Now has a JavaScript API to use it You can use things like Chrome debugger inside the running node process Old debugging protocol has been removed VM.run is still there but in the process of being deprecated [22:34] How like is the experimental Node API will change? Marked as experimental because it’s the first time in the open Hopefully out of experimental soon Soon can port API to the existing LTS Looking for more people to participate with the new API and give feedback Fix any concerns before it goes to LTS Some other experimental things are in the works like ASync Hooks and how it interacts with promises Renaming some features Another new feature - serializer and deserializer that comes with V8 experimental but will most likely stay [25:31] what is your standard for going to LTS? Major releases every 6 months Next Oct Node 9 will come out and then Node 8 will be LTS Documentation, updates, additions etc will be ready then Plan to do it for 2.5 years Every even releases come out to LTS as the odd release comes out Helps keeps a current line while having something new in the release line Node 6 is the current LTS version [27:26] What are you taking out or deprecating in Node 8? Use the word deprecate sparingly If many people use features, it’s hard to get rid of Security issue with Buffer, constructor argument was ambiguous Had added APIs that were more explicit over time and pushed those Now it will be deprecated [28:43] 21% - 33% Performance increase with some Node updates Someone online updated their React app to Node 8 and found an 21% - 33% increase Benchmarking group tests to make sure things are getting faster V8 is always getting faster as well Code changes fast and so there is a chance performance slows down so they have people to check Benchmark test are all automated by a team [30:47] Is it safe to just switch to Node 8? For front-end, yes clear your NPM cache Back use cases will usually wait until LTS [31:28] Where any of the features hard to implement? The API work took about a year It was a collaboration which made it interesting IBM, Intel, Google were involved The collaboration took a while Also Async hooks took at least a year. Async hooks used to be called async wraps and has been in the work for almost 3 years many of the changes were the accumulation of small chances [33:07] It’s the little things Letting people get small changes in accumulate into a big difference the product gets much better that way [33:57] What versions of Node are you actively updating? Current releases of Node 8 for a half of year Node 6 is LTS Additional year of maintenance of previous LTSs. Schedule is at http://github.com/node8js/lts in a chart Support for Node 4 with only critical updates, Node 6 minor updates, and Node 8 Node 7 doesn’t get much support unless it’s vital security supports. If you’re running 0.10 or 0.12 stop. Those do not get security fixes anymore [35:42] Where do you see things going from here? Mostly still working out Async hooks Maybe add some web worker or worker support for Node JS ES module support Working to make promises better Working on the performance profile and internal systems [20:29] What is the adoption like of Node 8? Node team gets better at getting people to adopt quickly but about 5% - 6% will not upgrade community doubles each year at 8 million users right now Here is a graph on Twitter posted by NPM Limiting breaks and softly deprecating things makes it’s easier to upgrade [40:11] How can people contribute and get involved? NodeToDo.org shows how to make contribution Occasionally major conferences have information on how to contribute Test it out and help make it stronger [42:08] If people install Node 8 and have issues what can they do? If it’s an NPM problem check with them clear cache! install newest version with: npm install -g npm@latest Report problems to either NPM or Node If you’re not sure where the problem is, check github.com/nodejs/help Links Node8 Node’s Twitter Node’s Medium Node Evangelism Group Mikael on Twitter and GitHub Arunesh on Twitter Anna on Twitter Picks AJ Overclocked Remix Super Mario RPG Window to The Stars Amiee Blogpost RisingStack on Node 8 2 Frugal Dudes Charles Homeland House of Cards Joe Shimmer Lake Mikael Blake2b-wasm Aremesh Current Nightly News

[13:02] Is there anything more than NMP 5? First off, delete your NMP cache. It’s in your home directory usually with a .npm extension [14:09] What are the new features in V8? Unlimited heap sizes, previously had a 4gb limit. No fixed limit. [14:09] Will you see things like chakra come out tuned for servers? Profiles of a server for application process are getting smaller Getting cut into containers and VMs and micro services Vms that have cold boot time and run quickly in a strained environment is looking more like what we will see in the future Yes, especially if you’re using cloud functions V8 is optimized for phones, but Chakra is even more so Looking for opportunities for VMs can be solely optimized for a device target Node take advantage of that VM VM neutrality is an interesting concept VM Vendors trying to optimize it based on workloads of a server Opens opportunities for Node Node Chakra has been proved to iOS. You can cut off jitting off which was a requirement to be able to be in the Apple App Store Node is not just for servers anymore Node doesn’t take a long time configuring it When a developer runs code on an IoT or a mobile app they don’t control the VM that is bundled, they run it on top of Node and it just works. VM neutrality gives a new vector, so you can swam a whole different VM [18:44] When running different engines like iOS vs Android, does the profile change? What it comes down to is if it’s eventive programming The browser is an eventive environment, is very efficient waiting for things to happen before it does something The way that we program servers and nodes are the same as well the basics are the same generally environmental differences exist but the programming model is usually the same What does impact it is memory and processor and hardware and things like that That is where tuning the VM comes into play [20:29] What is the new Async Hooks API used for? Node has been lacking for automated inspection of Async Hook No way for Node to tell you when scheduling and beginning of an Async operation. Hook helps with that it’s a way for developers to write debugging features Node tells the application that it’s working with Asynchronous way. The embedded inspector has been embedded since Node 6 Now has a JavaScript API to use it You can use things like Chrome debugger inside the running node process Old debugging protocol has been removed VM.run is still there but in the process of being deprecated [22:34] How like is the experimental Node API will change? Marked as experimental because it’s the first time in the open Hopefully out of experimental soon Soon can port API to the existing LTS Looking for more people to participate with the new API and give feedback Fix any concerns before it goes to LTS Some other experimental things are in the works like ASync Hooks and how it interacts with promises Renaming some features Another new feature - serializer and deserializer that comes with V8 experimental but will most likely stay [25:31] what is your standard for going to LTS? Major releases every 6 months Next Oct Node 9 will come out and then Node 8 will be LTS Documentation, updates, additions etc will be ready then Plan to do it for 2.5 years Every even releases come out to LTS as the odd release comes out Helps keeps a current line while having something new in the release line Node 6 is the current LTS version [27:26] What are you taking out or deprecating in Node 8? Use the word deprecate sparingly If many people use features, it’s hard to get rid of Security issue with Buffer, constructor argument was ambiguous Had added APIs that were more explicit over time and pushed those Now it will be deprecated [28:43] 21% - 33% Performance increase with some Node updates Someone online updated their React app to Node 8 and found an 21% - 33% increase Benchmarking group tests to make sure things are getting faster V8 is always getting faster as well Code changes fast and so there is a chance performance slows down so they have people to check Benchmark test are all automated by a team [30:47] Is it safe to just switch to Node 8? For front-end, yes clear your NPM cache Back use cases will usually wait until LTS [31:28] Where any of the features hard to implement? The API work took about a year It was a collaboration which made it interesting IBM, Intel, Google were involved The collaboration took a while Also Async hooks took at least a year. Async hooks used to be called async wraps and has been in the work for almost 3 years many of the changes were the accumulation of small chances [33:07] It’s the little things Letting people get small changes in accumulate into a big difference the product gets much better that way [33:57] What versions of Node are you actively updating? Current releases of Node 8 for a half of year Node 6 is LTS Additional year of maintenance of previous LTSs. Schedule is at http://github.com/node8js/lts in a chart Support for Node 4 with only critical updates, Node 6 minor updates, and Node 8 Node 7 doesn’t get much support unless it’s vital security supports. If you’re running 0.10 or 0.12 stop. Those do not get security fixes anymore [35:42] Where do you see things going from here? Mostly still working out Async hooks Maybe add some web worker or worker support for Node JS ES module support Working to make promises better Working on the performance profile and internal systems [20:29] What is the adoption like of Node 8? Node team gets better at getting people to adopt quickly but about 5% - 6% will not upgrade community doubles each year at 8 million users right now Here is a graph on Twitter posted by NPM Limiting breaks and softly deprecating things makes it’s easier to upgrade [40:11] How can people contribute and get involved? NodeToDo.org shows how to make contribution Occasionally major conferences have information on how to contribute Test it out and help make it stronger [42:08] If people install Node 8 and have issues what can they do? If it’s an NPM problem check with them clear cache! install newest version with: npm install -g npm@latest Report problems to either NPM or Node If you’re not sure where the problem is, check github.com/nodejs/help Links Node8 Node’s Twitter Node’s Medium Node Evangelism Group Mikael on Twitter and GitHub Arunesh on Twitter Anna on Twitter Picks AJ Overclocked Remix Super Mario RPG Window to The Stars Amiee Blogpost RisingStack on Node 8 2 Frugal Dudes Charles Homeland House of Cards Joe Shimmer Lake Mikael Blake2b-wasm Aremesh Current Nightly News

Shimmer Lake twists the conventional wisdom of storytelling on its ear by allowing the events of a small-town crime to unfold in reverse order. Working from Friday back to Tuesday, director Oren Uziel constructs a story of despair as a local Sheriff, Zeke Sikes (Benjamin Walker), works to bring to justice three criminals who robbed the local bank. Learning that one of them may just be his brother Andy (Rainn Wilson), Zeke sets off on a trail of lies and murder. With a host of suspects, twists, and revelations, how will this path ultimately lead back to Shimmer Lake? After graduating with a BA in Drama from Duke University and an MFA in Acting from the Yale School of Drama, Adam Saunders set his sights on a career in Hollywood. As the pursuit of his craft intensified, Adam found he also had a knack for both developing and producing projects. Often the unsung hero of film, a producer fields many behind-the-scenes responsibilities that directly contribute to our favorite films, from lining up capital and casting commitments to finalizing distribution deals. As the CEO of Footprint Features, Adam produced Shimmer Lake and explains why this was “one the best scripts I’ve ever read”. He also elaborates on the complexities of shooting a film in reverse order, assembling the all-star cast, and how their deal with Netflix ultimately came to fruition. Footprint Features has several exciting projects lined up, not the least of which is the newly released Shimmer Lake. Don’t miss this exclusive interview with producer, Adam Saunders.
