Firebase's solution isn't difficult to configure, it's just more difficult when you contrast it with the simplicity and grace provided by the rest of their product.

My startup is addressing the usability mainly by acting as a proxy to a client's sensitive data storage, and providing a sane set of defaults for very specific applications.

This space is awesome, and so is Firebase - Client-side apps are incredibly attractive for MVP development - it's almost as slick a feeling as moving from PHP to Rails 10 years ago :)

I've found timestamping Rails.logger output helps considerably, and offers a similar - yet more generic - insight.

I'm in precisely the same position - also with UH. Can't choose another plan because individual plans literally don't cover large swaths of industry offerings (certain procedures, medications, etc).

This isn't capitalism, it's strangulation of an industry by middlemen and lobbyists.

After the Boston bombings it's pretty apparent that the Reddit community alone will jump to some dangerous conclusions without the full story - and in this case specifically that would be a major concern of mine. So where do we actually find the middle line and balance here?

Most payment gateways provide no name-based authorization - a fake name will work just fine.

“America should imagine, when they go to bed tonight, if they were a Sandy Hook parent,” he said. “How betrayed would you feel if your kid was gunned down and the U.S. Senate could care less?”

I'm not necessarily against the idea of more gun control (though I haven't spent the time to analyze my beliefs on this in depth), but it seems Conway's spewing just as much illogical rhetoric as the Senators are in his case against them. I wish it were possible to stir passion in large groups of people with sound logic instead of metaphorical and obviously overblown imagery.
