I stand corrected. Thank you.

There is reason, though. For example, there is stigma against chiropractors [1]. Some nutritional supplements have been found a scam (rightly so), but the baby got thrown out with the bathwater [2]. Have you heard of sound therapy? Laser th

Where would one go to get started in building artificial life programs? I find the idea very fascinating.

It's a long-lived HTTP request. The server automatically knows if a client disconnects; that's a feature built into all HTTP server libraries everywhere. But yes, if you're already using websockets for other features, there&#

Websockets would overkill for this kind of feature – you don't need realtime two-way communication. Server sent events (SSE) [1] are a much better alternative; it's a simple, long-lived HTTP request where the server can push data

That's a really good, illustrative example. It seems true that, given a single hour, you're "destroying" the value of the individual's leisure. However, the individual wouldn't have to work away all their lei

But isn't the argument against min wage increases that it would decrease jobs, since employers wouldn't be able to hire? Or, that robots will be cheaper than a higher minimum wage? That's why I suggest both of these ideas tog

Surely we could work out education / creativity. For example, the gov could consider attending a university as a "job", and send funds that way. In any case, why worry about people "skirting the system" when the alt

I am also just thinking this through for the first time :) If what you say is true, then I think we will have just successfully upgraded minimum wage to a living wage, and have allowed companies to hire more people at higher wages due to th

by simplify 10y ago
I think you could solve that by increasing minimum wage at the same time. That would also make min. wage increases more palatable.

Well it wouldn't be 100% subsidized, meaning that the company has to payout some money. With a subsidized payout, I imagine companies would hire even more people. And, even if someone gets away with not actually "working",

Has anyone considered "subsidizing jobs" as an alternative to BI? Would it work better if the government gives $X to a company when they hire someone?

Doesn't the nature of an OAuth server imply that it can be added to existing infrastructures? Or is there an issue you foresee with non-Hydra libraries?

Doorkeeper is closer to a full-package with customizable features, including a basic frontend. I'm not too familiar with hydra, but it seems Doorkeeper is best when you want to get the full OAuth app & user interface running (and c

by simplify 10y ago
If you're interested in this sort of thing, Doorkeeper[1] is a robust, open source OAuth 2 provider that's been around for about 5 years. We use it as a standalone app, and have many other node.js apps that sign in using it. [1]

But compared to something like GWT, angular is minimalist :) Surely that doesn't mean we should all settle with angular, does it?

This looks similar to Crystal[1], another statically typed OO language with ruby-like syntax. [1] http://crystal-lang.org/

Does anyone think Haxe is a good server-side language? I'm still desperately thirsty for a server-side language that has a sound, yet understandable and easy-to-use static type system.

I'm sorry, could you explain what you mean? That was my first comment on Christianity.

Could it be that you provided your own education? If so, I would say most are not organized or visionary enough to do the same thing.

I try to avoid them too, but sometimes business requirements are just too particular to do so.
