I am starting to follow Sindre's philosophy [1] more and more. I published this morning `fch` [2], a 10-15 LoC library (note: undocumented for now). I will test it well and make sure it works everywhere. In exchange, I removed basically the same code from 3 projects (so far), some of them with subtle bugs.

The cost of using it is the same as locally, and creation cost is lower per-project if you let npm manage your own libs. Plus, bug fixes are automatically propagated.
