Agree, if you examine Swedish modern history since the industrial revolution you will find that Sweden has always produced lots of startups (or the equivalent in the old days) with both low taxes and high taxes, with a welfare state and wit

Personally I prefer the opposite, I have managed many old projects (10+ years old) and I always prefer raw SQL over some outdated ORM that is hard to configure and finetune. With SQL I have access to one of the most powerful query languages

Now I don't know how your PHP code was structured, but in my experience there usually three types of mistakes done with error handling in PHP code 1) not properly checking return values from standard library functions 2) not checking c

It depends entirely on what kind of immigration you are talking about, there are empirical evidence that certain type of immigration can be beneficial, but it also exist empirical evidence of the contrary, thus making a general claim is not

> Japan doesn’t like immigration at all. Thus you agree with me that integration is huge cost, because immigration will create big friction within the Japanese society and that is a cost. It is interesting that you admit that Japanese so

Oh, so you want low skilled immigration to Japan like in Europe, not high skilled immigration. How would that help anything? Sweden has about ~5 physicians per 1000 people, largest migration groups to Sweden, Syrians has a rate about ~1.3,

Then we should reform our economic system, endless growth is not viable, especially if you take into account climate and environmental issues. Again, band aid solutions does not work in the long run. We need to adress the real issue.

If Japan went from the current child birth rate to same same rate as Hungary then Japan would be almost be at equilibrium, Japan has the same child birth rate as Hungary ten years ago before Hungary added a tax credit program for new famili

Hungary has increased their number of births per woman from 1.23 ten years ago to 1.55 today by giving tax credits for new families.

The thing is if the idea is that women should equally participate in the labour market then child births will decline. Thus if immigrants already has or adopts the Japanese way of living then child births will still be low. Or if immigrants

There are other solutions of course, like automation. With technology we can do more work on less time, and that is something we have done since the industrial revolution. It is a bit bizarre that on technology forum this is not go-to answe

Immigration is not one-stop solution to fix GDP because integration is huge cost that is rarely taken into account. And of course it doesn't at all address the real problem, that men and women no longer creates families. This is typica

My proposal would be to let the community build a stdlib and after it is battle tested merge it with core PHP. It has been proposed before to have PHP source shipped with PHP (and also the possibility mix C and PHP) and think that would be

Not necessarily, because you have to consider the entire lifecycle. When doing frontend rendering you usually work against a REST(ful) API to fetch data, the idea is to reuse endpoints for multiple frontend components, because of this gener

Above usage of filter_var is wrong, there is no need to cast $thing to int, filter_var already returns the filtered int or false on failure. The correct usage is therefore /** * Cast to int, fail if not a valid integer
