Occasionally you come across an analogy that seems a bit offensive but you don’t have enough experience to really make a full judgment on it to really comment on it. The wolf and sheep analogy is one I’ve heard for years, often used to describe small business owners and entrepreneurs vs people working in big companies. Its always rubbed me the wrong way and I have a bit more experience now to smash it to pieces....

I needed to Base62 encode a URL for a project I was working on and I ended up reading and learning about the details of bijective functions in this Stack Overflow answer. The answer really outlined it nicely and I ended up porting another person’s Ruby bijective encode function to JavaScript for use in my project.
