Here’s how it will affect employer-sponsored health plans now, and what it portends for the future of the employer health care mandate and related reporting obligations. https://goo.gl/LHh12G #GlobalHR #HRTech

An Opinionated Guide to Building APIs With Akka-Http

Akka-Http is my preferred framework for building APIs, but there are some things I have picked up along the way. For one thing, Akka-Http is very un-opinionated in its approach, there are often lots of ways to do the same thing, and there isn’t a lot of opinionated guidance about how to do things.

I have been writing Akka-Http APIs for, I guess, about 18 months now (not long, I know), having previously worked predominantly with libraries like Spring, and I have seen some pretty nasty code resulting from this (by this I mean, I have written nasty code – not intentionally, of course, but from good intentions starting off trying to write, clean, idiomatic Akka-Http code, and ending up in huge sprawling routing classes which are un-readable and generally not very nice). https://goo.gl/4MMvGn #DataIntegration #ML
