* Prevent duplicate company names
* Fix output indentation
* Search full profile content using lunr.js
* Remove extra stop words
This wasn't really working correctly - the stop word 'work' would leave
instances of 'working' and 'works' in the index for example.
* Change company name description from "Name" to "Company name"
* Pre-process query:
- Search for terms in AND mode, per
https://lunrjs.com/guides/searching.html#term-presence
- Discard non-alphanumeric characters from the search
- Better handling of contractions and searching for stop words
* Display search query and results in the console
* Add special search token: _incomplete
* Add a link to search for incomplete profiles
* Revert "Add a link to search for incomplete profiles"
This reverts commit f6384c90cb.
* Add link to search documentation
* Improve search explanation appearance when it spans multiple lines
* Fix searching for contractions
Previously, searching for e.g. "don't" wasn't working correctly. After
trimming the contraction, "do" is a stop word, so it should be ignored.
* Improve "empty search" message
* Prefer matches other than "company name" in search excerpts
* Move inline scripts before external scripts
This probably doesn't matter right now due to the way the scripts are
currently structured, but it might matter one day and it's more logical
this way.
* Fix search engine index progress
* Improve script indentation
* I got 99 problems and they're all bots
* Update script exit code
When a Node.js error occurs the exit code is probably going to be 1, so
we should use a different code.
* Fix the tests
* Update documentation
This was wrong (out of date), but the correct version is obvious from
reading the code.
* Make download progress work in both Chrome and Firefox

Remote status
18F employees live all over the country. We work out of homes in Dayton and Tucson, St. Louis and Chapel Hill — and in federal buildings in San Francisco, Chicago, New York City, and Washington D.C.
That means many of our project teams are also made up of distributed employees working all over the country. For example, you may have a developer in Austin, a designer in Washington D.C., and a content strategist in Portland — but they’re all working on the same team and with the same partners.
Because we work on distributed teams so frequently, we've developed certain strategies for working well as a collaborative operation.
We have a “remote first” mindset.

U.S. citizens, non-citizens who are nationals of the U.S., or people who have been admitted to the U.S. for permanent residence and hold a valid green card.
