I made some changes to a node express project that I haven't touched in almost five years. I was pleasantly surprised that I only needed to update one dependency to get it working again! (It was sqlite3, which is a native dependency using node-gyp.)

I really like the MELPA model of packaging directly from git. It solves the problem of forgetting to release something -- just merge a PR and you're done. It also makes version number bumps much less important. You could go even further in a statically typed language and also figure out when breaking changes occur.

I'm experimenting with Hammerspoon on macOS as an application switcher. `Option-Space F` is Firefox, `Option-Space E` is Emacs, etc. The problem with `Alt-Tab` is that the order changes based on recency. I'm hoping that a repeatable command will be nicer to use.
