This is must read for all introverts and all who interact with them. In the world so focused on extroversion it's reassuring to hear that introversion is normal and have its own strengths.
I'm not exactly shy and introvert person all the time but I learned a lot. In my opinion, everyone can learn something from it. Solitude can be something that not only introverts can benefit from.
The most important idea for introverts is to embrace your strengths. Instead of feeling guilty you're not social and cheerful all the time you should use your observational and listening skills. Picking only a couple of close friends over many acquaintances might be better for you as well.
Even when everyone around you creates social pressure to talk it doesn't mean that you have to do it. Quiet gives you more confidence in who you are and how you can live your life your own way.
It turns out that an introvert can fake extroversion, but it's easier if it's important because of your personal goals. Don't strain yourself for every small talk with every person you meet, it might not be worth the effort. Introverts have to spend energy during social activities so choose your battles carefully.
If you don't feel you have time to read the whole book watch video of author's TED talk.
I really enjoyed the book, even when though the amount of positive information about introversion felt sometimes too good to be true. It helped to know many of the mentioned experiments and books beforehand. Introverts have a hard time in extrovert society and maybe it was just the exposure to the different way of thinking that caused me to flinch from time to time?
Using Node.js you want to use NPM packages for reusable parts of the apps you create, that is a common sense. At the same time not everything makes sense as a public module unfortunately. Right now we are using Bitbucket at work for private repositories but there is a problem. How to use them as NPM modules? We do not want to publish them to the public npmjs.org but still want to have an ability to install them easily. After googling and experimenting I have found simple solution. First create new user in your organization with obscure password and give it read access to the repo. It is best to assign really obscure password but do not fool yourself. This is convenient but you must sacrifice security a bit. You should always consider how in your context that would be important. Change example from below to: user - username PASS - password of the user organization - owner of the project (you can find it in bitbucket url to your project) project - your project name "de
Probably this is default for cygwin (at least I think that Git Bash uses somehow cygwin). In windows to change drives You use: D: And this is done! In Git Bash drives are "mounted" in root :) cd /D
Update: If you use Chrome then you can use "Throttling" so simulate slow network for all your assets. This should be easier than proxy. Toggle device mode Choose Network type. Refresh the page https://developer.chrome.com/devtools/docs/device-mode Proxy: For some time I wanted to use some proxy for development and testing of eg. slow internet connection, but it was hard to find something useful and free. I know there is Charles but buy it to use it at most one in a month is not for me. I started thinking about Node.js, maybe I can write proxy for me? But fortunately I found one. https://github.com/nodejitsu/node-http-proxy With this module I can write really short code to create slow server: var http = require('http'), httpProxy = require('http-proxy'); httpProxy.createServer(function (req, res, proxy) { var buffer = httpProxy.buffer(req); setTimeout(function () { proxy.proxyRequest(req, res, { host:
