Considering the size of the adapters and cables, we don't travel anywhere without them. There is too much variation even traveling in the U.S. Many places don't have 'A' plugs in rooms. I'd definitely bring a Euro adapter and a standard brick to have available.

It seems like a decent clue to me. I just didn't think of the solution. I'd give this to you as a legitimate win. So, I'll say "nicely done" and look forward to tomorrow's clue.

So, I do a lot of Angular development. I help out with a number of projects, all of which have their own npm dependencies. My typical workflow with a new project is to git clone the repo, run npm i to install the dependencies and go off and have a cup of tea while npm downloads all the dependencies. Now, there are ways that you can download a single npm dependency to a centrally managed folder, which will create a symlink for you locally, but as far as I can see, there's no way to tell something like Angular to do this with every package so my diskspace gets eaten up by 100s of Mb of duplicated packages on every install.

There's probably an NPM package for that...

As much as I dislike Angular, can't blame it for this issue. This would be an npm thing. IMO localized packages are better and less error prone. That being said, the first real issue here is Angular is bloatware.  Also, make sure the devs working on it don't add a new package for every last thing in the world that could easily be done with vanilla JS.
Buuutttt, since you passed the point of no return it seems, npm supports the ability to always use a global folder no matter what.
https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v9/using-npm/config#global
Just stick that bad boy in a npmrc file in your home directory (~/.npmrc) and nuke the old node_modules folders for your projects and try again. Keep in mind, you'll still probably have a local node_modules folder because packages use it for other things (not sure, never tried) but if you do it should be a lot smaller at least.

I agree strongly.
Always seemed like potentially a failure path that would just show up unexpectedly.
Same thing happens when a developer decides to use a new library which requires multiple other libraries to be updated (tens or even more.) And yet when I mention that this now requires a full regression they can't understand why.

So, I couldn't find any mention of this when I was crashing around the npm docs. Your google-fu is strong Master Falcon.

Yeah, I dunno why, but it is hard to find. I just got frustrated with stuff myself not too long ago and went through the docs. So I, err we, got lucky.

Also, if these packages are interdependent, it may be worthwhile looking into peer dependencies too. My first post is the quick fix, but peer dependencies are technically another option. They shouldn't be abused however, but it's an option.

How many other projects do you work on? Might be annoying but these days a couple of hundred megs isn't much. Even could use it as an excuse to get a better and bigger harddrive.

Better you get frustrated instead everybody else who just want to clone one project and have it build without hunting for missing libraries, wrong versions and missing shared folders.
