Questions:

1. On your dev machine, if you are using 4.x, should you keep updating to the newest 4.x version or stay with this version?

2. If you keep updating and use a version manager like nvm, is there an easy way to install global packages(like gulp, grunt, etc) for new versions?

Depends on what you're running in production. As an admin, I'd say stick with the LTS releases. If you're not in production, or you can bundle your Node with your app (like in a container) then I'd vote for "go wild".

For #2:- nvm copy-packages v(the version that you want to copy from) should do it.
