Can I browse my node_modules folder in Explorer yet? [1] [1] https://github.com/joyent/node/issues/6960
With every new version of Windows, Explorer gets worse and worse. I personally switched to Directory Opus long time ago.

When you use platform-exclusive features then you not only lose a major strength of node, but you put the owner of that platform in a position to start pushing developers around.

When was the last time they went all the way?

Wow, what's up Microsoft?
Actually, I was thinking, what's up node? Each dependency keeps a private copy of its dependencies? How messed up is that? Or am I just reading that wrong?
What about the license of Node.js/Chromium? Isn't linking a closed source library (Chakra) problematic? You know it includes multiple code parts under various licenses, Wikipedia says: BSD license, MIT License, LGPL, MS-PL and MPL/GPL/LGPL tri-licensed ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium_(web_browser) ) There is a reason why major open source projects like Linux, etc. choose licenses like GNU GPL v2+. http://en.w…
Yeah, because the tech world didn't have enough problems with projects being immature, unreliable, stale 30+ year designs, abandoned, incompatible, not provided by a specific distribution, coflicting, patented and 100 other issues to consider.
It just had to also add 200 legal distinctions behind what you can and you cannot do, and how you can link stuff and under what circumstances.

This isn't a limitation of Explorer, but actually is a very well documented part of the Windows API. MAXPATH has always been 260 characters. https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa365247(VS.85).asp...

That's a feature, not a bug. It lets A rely on version 0.9 of X while B relies on version 0.8.
