Too late, my 3 kids had the adenoids removed. Anything that i should look out for?


Yes i agree, synchronicity is environmentally unsustainable. Metro stations and train stations are designed for peak capacity in rush hour.

Office workers spend the vast part of the day at their workstation and sending emails.

Why not do that from home?

Most meetings are useless and we know it, why not do them in chat or video conference?

Open spaces are the worst possible environment to get anything done and everyone knows it.

But there is this mindset that in person presence is the only way to work and interact, Which is true for some professions, but not all of them.

Most people dream would love working from home.


On the other hand, many commuter systems run at a much lower frequency outside of peak hours. It seems like having them running at the same frequency day-round would not necessarily be a win in the environmental impact department. If that is your concern trains should be as close to capacity as possible at all times.


> Now that Angular 2 is out, a lot of web companies and enterprise companies are starting to adopt it. And when building new apps we will need to choose a backend to go with Angular 2.

In this post I will go over some reasons why I think that the latest Firebase might be just as impactful in web development as Angular 2 itself, and why the two combined could be the best thing that happened to web development in a long time.

After all the advances in technology, building web applications is still way harder than what it should be, but maybe not so much anymore if we can use something similar to Firebase.


This is a post on how the latest Angular 2 release and the NgModule feature will enable transparent ahead of time compilation for minimal bundle sizes plus transparent easily configurable lazy loading.

This feature coupled with upcoming angular-cli versions will make features like minimal bundles and lazy loaded apps much simpler to make than ever before. the angular-cli will actually provide these features pretty much transparently.

The developer will only have to add some minimal config by defining modules and passing modules to the router to make them lazy loadable. But there are some minor pitfalls to bear in mind in what relates to dependency injection.


how to install the official showcase of Angular 2 material, see the Angular 2 CLI hot reloading in action, learn the Portals functionality and why Angular 2 Material is more than a widget framework.


spring mvc for the rest controllers with spring data jpa for the repository layer. The frontend in Angular 1, nothing beats that in terms of simplicity and flexibility.

Dont try to do your frontend in java using jsf, wicket, gwt, vaadin, play framework the scala compiled templates or anything they are too complex and unflexible compared to what you can do with angular in the browser in a fraction of the time.


I noticed the same, but then i found the Steve Gibson Security Now podcast https://www.grc.com/securitynow.htm

The episode archive has a whole course on security,with a focus on the web



I'd say 10 or so false claims over 10 years is not really that bad. I've talked to security experts who enjoy the show. It is more for entertainment and industry news, I think people who compile lists like the above linked are trying way too hard and makes me wonder why they hate Gibson so much.

Would I hire him to do pentesting on my app? No.

Would I enjoy listening to him talk on a podcast about security related topics. Sure, I do.


I would skip the Steve Gibson stuff altogether.


Well all the worst things in humans like doing extermination wars are 'just human'. Everything bad and good about people is just human, so what's the point exactly?

But some things are more human than others: recognizing right from wrong, knowing racism is wrong, having a conscience. This is what sets us apart from animals.

That racial bias can and should be easily fought by all of us everyday: using our conscience which is what really makes us human.


Don't get bankrupt for this, its not worth it. Shut it down temporarily, try to make the MVP really minimal in your spare time.

The product you describe seems to have huge scope. Try to make it really focused, like an an NFL only fantasy league (the most popular sport).

You should really get developers that know already Angular and Node, those technologies are just not learnable overnight.

Other than that it seems like a nice stack, I personally would go for a backend based on socket.io and mongoose.

Any change of having people working remotelly to reduce office costs?


Well according to Larry Page, what they are actually building is actually an Artificial Intelligence http://www.artificialbrains.com/google

Sounds like Skynet to me.
