CouchDB, package managers, and npm (couchconf-nyc-2011.nodejitsu.com)

Socketpuppet #13242 reporting for duty sir.

It's great preso btw, did it get recorded?

Support for conflicting dependencies in npm is an amazingly great feature because once a piece of software works you can update little pieces of your application without worrying about whether upgrading a dependency will break some sub-dependency somewhere. If your dependency graph has upwards of 50 nodes in it as some of mine do, this is a very big deal.

socket puppet #123! :D

npm is an awful piece of cruft authored by a clueless, posturing cretin.
