Can't use the newest npm when node is installed with brew (MacOs)


Even though I installed and reinstalled node with brew, with last versione 11.8.0, apparently it kept using the last version

fdecollibus$ npm install --global gatsby-cli
npm WARN npm npm does not support Node.js v11.8.0
npm WARN npm You should probably upgrade to a newer version of node as we
npm WARN npm can't make any promises that npm will work with this version.
npm WARN npm Supported releases of Node.js are the latest release of 4, 6, 7, 8, 9.
npm WARN npm You can find the latest version at https://nodejs.org/
/usr/local/Cellar/node/11.8.0/bin/gatsby -> /usr/local/Cellar/node/11.8.0/lib/node_modules/gatsby-cli/lib/index.js
+ gatsby-cli@2.4.8


npm -v gave me back version 5.6.0. I've therefore noticed that /usr/local/lib/node_modules
had wrong permissions assigned to root:wheel. A chown did not fix the problem: I've had to manually delete the content of the folder (cd /usr/local/lib/node_modules and -careful - type rm -rf * )  to get rid of the folder. Then I've run brew uninstall node and again brew install node, and finally npm -v gave me back 6.5.0 

I guess I've inherited a messed up situation from my previous project :)

Building bitcoin/litecoin on mac os x missing EC.h

For my own fun, I was playing around with bitcoin, to check how the parameters of the cryptocurrencies can be modified. After recent upgrades to my OS, I could not build any longer the bitcoind. Seems like something changed on that side. Now this command ./configure --with-gui=qt5 --enable-debug Was sistematically producing  configure: error: OpenSSL ec header missing EC is the file for elliptic curve cryptography. I had brew correctly configured, and the header files were all correctly present. After some time spent inspecting the issue, on github I was able to find the solution for this problem. I simply add to export the following export LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib export CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include There is aksi pull request on bitcoin for that, I hope I could save you some time https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/6885/files?diff=split&unchanged=expanded

When adding a property to graph-tool don't forget this

When you are adding a new property to a graph-tool graph (https://graph-tool.skewed.de/) is_node_customer = network.new_vertex_property("bool") weight = network.new_edge_property("float")  you should never forget to add this network.vertex_properties["is_node_customer"] = is_node_customer network.edge_properties["weight"] = weight Otherwise the properties will not saved or stored together with the graph and you will lose a lot of time
