A good (temporary) solution:
$ node server.js &
$ disown %1
$ exit
The `&` tells the shell to run node in the background. It will say
something like "[1] 1233," which means that the node process has pid
1233 and is job #1. Then, you disown the job and exit the shell. The
node process will continue to run in the background.
