Ah.
You are correct in your "inference". My marriage has had some very rough moments, of which, I almost quit. For whatever reasons, the wife and I are doing great, our children are great, and I "would not" want to be without them.
If we don't chat again, have a good holiday, Jeremy. I mean that.

Oh, and I'm not religious either. My entire family is Christian (hypocritical ones though), so I know the influence. More people need to study more religions than the besides the one they grew up in. They'd be a lot wiser. Anyway, kudos for you thinking outside the box.
I am spiritual though, which to me, has nothing to do with formalized religious practices.

Although, blindly following my parents when they potty trained me turned out to be a good idea.

But are you now unable to pooh in the woods? Are you able to adjust your behaviour to the circumstances?

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

It appears that the light show was purely video. For the next level, have real-time image recognition, and adjust the lights according to the body positions (i.e., center the lights on the hands or feet, and minimally adjust their trajectories and/or accelerations when it is appropriate). That would put it way over the top of its current greatness. And make a great article worthy of a '5'!

The below YouTube post got me thinking, after years of defending PHP on CP, I will admit there is one thing that I think is utterly stupid about it - it doesn't support unsigned integers. And you can't specify which size of an integer you want. It's a 32-bit int on 32-bit systems and a 64-bit int on 64-bit systems. Period. End of story. You want something else, that's your problem. Deal with it.
Almost makes me wonder if that's why YT had the signed counter in the first place, for compatibility with web technologies such as that.
And PHP is still a great tool, but like most environments there are some WTF things about it. This is one of them.

Really a comment on "scripting languages" in general that provide simplicity at the cost of features. Serious programs require a rich set of datatypes and therefore strong typing.

That's just it, PHP started off as a scripting language, it's no longer one. You can use it that way if you want, but it's not required. It's no different than Java or .NET now in the fact you can pre-compile into bytecode and run that. You can even package modules into PHAR files that work very similar to assemblies.
PHP is growing up, but I'd wager most of its "scriptness" feel is due to legacy support. And your right, it still has that "scriptness" feel to it because you don't see it compiling in your IDE, that happens on the server behind the scenes.
For me, PHP's strength is the ungodly amount of things you can do with it. And it runs on Unix/Linux. It's faster than other *nix alternatives that I know of (RoR = slow), and beats writing a web app in C/C++. So, hopefully we'll get some of those missing goodies one day... oh unsigned ints.
Oh, and PHP does have type support. Just not strong typing. That's not the same as no typing.

Why is it that it seems so few *Nix web devs talk about JSP? JSP seems like the *real alternative to ASP.NET (instead of PHP) and yet you rarely hear much about it.
Is it because of the Apache (tomcat, glassfish, whatever) configuration that goes along with it?
Just curious.

I can't speak for everyone, but my path never took me down the JSP / J2EE road. I've been doing web development before JSP existed, and back in the mid 90s the only time I even cared about Java was for writing applets for my web pages. Never went too far with it back then since its UI library at the time was just slow (Swing I think it was). So, I stayed away from it. 20 years later I'm sure it's a different ballgame though, especially since JSP wouldn't even need a UI library.
That's also the reason I use PHP. PHP is the grandfather of it all. It's what was available when I got into web dev, and it was a great tool. Even before classic ASP came to be and still even after ASP was out there, the difference between classic ASP and PHP was night and day. PHP beat it in every way possible since classic ASP was really just six objects and VBScript or JScript. So, I stayed with PHP.
When JSP and even Cold Fusion started hitting the scene I had no reason to use it since I've been using PHP for years I didn't see a point in learning something new. I ended up doing a fair amount of ASP.NET for my job, but after years of PHP development I know how to work that stinking thing all kinds of weird ways to get some really awesome things out of it. So in short, I don't have a reason enough to justify taking the time to learn JSP / J2EE.
