We're transitioning from a monolith PHP app to a Node microservices architecture. The approach with microservices seems to take these scaling issue into account, allowing for narrow focus on each service during initial development and

Maybe rather than a shift, it's a divergence. The Panama Papers represent classic journalistic values. It's what we want to expect: the truth uncovered. It's been a stark contrast to see news outlets blatantly ignore the Pana

I think this perspective needs to be expanded on (thank you btw). I'd like to see a couple IP experts 'debate' the issue and the implications of its facets.

Almost no mention of it on Reddit prior to this story [0] aside from rumors in a couple small Subreddits. Feels weird as a Reddit user to see something like this out in the news without attempts for creating community buy-in, as if the Redd

A lot of that is simplified by IFTTT having channels for Nest, Hue, Echo (via Alexa), and Wemo. I don't mean to be contradictory. It's exciting that we are getting glimpses of internet connected things! I wonder about IFTTT altern
