Node with which framework? By itself it's not comparable to Rails.

I've yet to find anything that comes close to Rails in programmer productivity for the web. So, as long as programmer productivity is a concern, it's relevant. EDIT: On the other hand, I wouldn't choose Rails for a project wh

"Visual quality" is actually a big part of the problem. You can't optimize for visual while also optimize for taste...

"Buying a lifestyle" sounds bad because it's associated with big brands for which that's just a marketing tactic, and where the lifestyle is artificial. But you're actually - and proudly - supporting an authentic li

Sure, there are ups and downs. But Rome is a very bad example, it's a down for many reasons and it's not representative at all.

Actually, Ireland chose Gaelic as their official language, and I think the same thing is true for Cyprus and Malta. So, when the UK leaves, there could be no member with English as its official language (the UK is still part of the EU until

Agreed. If only we could fix the non-phonetic spelling...

Yes, it would be interesting to learn what are they used for.

Let's hope so, but this looks more like an internal power struggle from the existing regime, so I don't expect any of the two factions to want real change (except about who gets the power and billions).

I think that any acquisition between companies that have a relevant market in the EU may be subject to scrutiny.

That's true, but how much pollution does it cost to replace the generator?

A lottery ticket still has a value, so, they're not valuing them at $0. But they are planning for the case where the value goes to 0, which is a very sane thing to do.

Playing devil's advocate: how much different is this from adopted children to which adoptive parent's don't tell the truth? Is it mostly how likely is the truth to come out at some point?

I guess that a lot (if not most) of the learning that Waymo and others are doing is exactly about how to deal with humans (car drivers, cyclists, pedestrians etc.)

Are there no unemployment benefits at all to cover that gap in the US?

You nailed it :) I love AR, but there are use cases where you just need to create or optimize your queries manually.

> The labor market is not just humans any more, and if/when human labor prices go up, the economics of automation are even more attractive This has been true for at least a hundred years for manufacturing.

I think that a very few share of Rails programmers need to know the innards of ActiveRecord - I use and abuse it heavily, and never felt that need. When things get difficult to optimize, I fall back to hand-written SQL. I spent a thousand t

Did you try a good tutorial? Rails is structured in a way that fits from very small to very big web projects, but it's not structured to be learned just from reading the automatically generated code - that for sure would make it look c

> between having feature A broken on iphone or having it broken every other browser, to chose to break iPhone In principle, I agree with you. But in reality, the iPhone market is very valuable.

Yes, this is one space where regulation has really helped, even if sometimes you still find that the actual price is a bit different from the one you expected.

Did you relative notify the company that they wanted to cancel their return flight? I don't think the airline could have complained in that case.

Of course, you can never know the "ifs" of history, but crashing your internal demand at the same exact time when your external demand is collapsing looks to me like a perfect recipe for depression.

On the other hand, if China had tried to reign in its bubbles during the crisis from 2008, that would have been bad for then and the whole world economy.

Honestly, this looks like a very serious (non-political) analysis and the recommendations look very good: use regulation where necessary (eg against bubbles and fraud), use markets where they can work best (eg to foster competitiveness). Be

A bit OT, but a question for those who have OLED TVs, using them to watch movies/shows etc: is burn-in a problem, or not because images are always changing there?
