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 :)

Multiple controllers with Spring Boot

Remember, when you want to have multiple controllers with Spring Boot, you should always name them differently in the annotation, otherwise they will not work So these two together will NOT work (or just one of them will work) These two instead WILL work.

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
