Yes, as a Belgian myself I'm aware of his work, but it was the work of Bush that directly inspired Ted, Douglas etc. Of course Bush's work builds on top of others as I'm sure Otlet will also have had his predecessors.

I use Sonos with a traditional hi-fi system via their connect box (now replaced by the way too high priced port). The only reason is that Sonos is the only system in the world that lets me play different Spotify songs in different rooms fro

I agree it needs more low level controls. The api is very high level at this moment. Luckily that seems to be a focus of webrtc NG being discussed. I also think SDP wasn't such a great choice. ORTC that was pushed early on by microsoft

But if you had picked any other tool from 2014, you'd probably also be stuck with a legacy code base now, without any clear transition path except a big bang rewrite. You would have probably picked angularjs or backbone back in 2014 an

That's my point. Other people had to rewrite their software for new build tools, while our Meteor app started 5 years ago never needed any big changes, while we could gradually adopt ES6+ features, modules, dynamic imports, ...

I do think it offers benefits. I'm not a big believer that it will prevent many bugs as is often claimed from typed languages, but IDE's can help you develop much faster (when everything is in TS already) and refactorings become w

Meteor 0.8 was released in 2014, and I'm sure your app would still work on the latest Meteor release without much changes, while in the meantime offering all the latest JS features (JS in 2014 was a completely different world). How man

I don't think it's deserved. If you don't need the kind of reactive queries Meteor offers (and IMO is still unbeaten in terms of developer productivity in case you do need them), then you can safely ignore that part. In the e

Then again, you can use a connector to connect it to MSSQl, MySQl, Oracle and others. And you still have a very powerful tool for reporting, forms, queries etc.
