To add on to this, we'd love to get specific examples of things that you find challenging or that otherwise don't work well. We've found over time that these tend to fall into either A) a missing feature, B) Missing documentation, or C) a missing concept in the domain being modeled. As we've added more features and handled the edge cases, we see more of B & C than A, but of course that happens still as well.

I don't have a lot of context on OData, but from what I can tell from a quick look at the site, it seems a closer comparison would be the JSON:API spec https://jsonapi.org/. Graphiti took a great deal of influence from that spec, and was originally much more directly coupled to it. Now it's the default serialization format, but not the only one. It would probably be possible to "speak OData" as well if that was a big need.

> I'm struggling to understand the advantages and disadvantages over REST and GraphQL

The "Why Graphiti" page[1] goes into some of this, getting into some comparisons of REST, RPC, and GraphQL, as well as discussing the conventions that make some of Graphiti's approach possible.

Technically they are sailors.

My understanding is that the reason Chrome has to use the iOS webkit view is because that's the only way to get JIT javascript compilation working for apps submitted to the app store. Does anyone have a sense of whether it would be possible to switch to Blink and V8 with a locally compiled and sideloaded version of the app? Would there be any benefit?

While it wasn't explicit in the article, it seems the focus here was much more on poor and working class communities with high performers. Students from those places able to get into top tier institutions are unlikely to be paying much if anything for their tuition.

Definitely thought this was going to be https://xkcd.com/443/

The general idea is to test and develop on the same image that will go to prod. Environment-specific configuration should generally be injected at container runtime.

Hi. I know Distelli was originally less targeted and could deploy to bare metal, snowflake VMs, k8s, etc. Is this latest version a narrowing of focus or is all that just less promoted now?

Sorry on mobile. Should have been in reply to Jotato

Not likely to become a law either. Many congresspersons have an excellent backup plan in becoming a well-connected lobbyist if they are ever voted out of office. They are not likely to vote that away from themselves.

FWIW, as a developer if I'm willing to break out my credit card to pay $5/year for a tool, I am every bit as willing to pay $20. I would wager you'd get far more than just a 1/4 of your users if you jumped up that price.

How do you see this comparing with older existing solutions like Rails' Unobtrusive JavaScript? It has always handled this kind of thing very well for me, and has been around a long time.

I know that Gitlab is written in pretty traditional Rails' style and takes advantage of turbolinks. Did you run into any difficulties adding a framework that likes to "own the page" like most single page app frameworks do? I've found these can often end up fighting with turbolinks and similar libraries.

Sure don't.

Anyone you're likely to classify as a "script kiddy" is not going to be able to read the kind of code going into embedded devices like a pacemaker to a deep enough level to find any problems. And if they can the software is really problematic, most likely.

Security by obscurity is never a good idea, but especially not when it might prevent a white hat from finding a bug that would allow a malicious actor to remotely STOP MY HEART.

Georgetown alum here and I can definitely vouch for this. While most students across the country would have to take an entire summer for an unpaid internship on The Hill while living in a very expensive city, our students can do this as an extra curricular during the academic year while living out of their dorm.

Plus if you're already doing political stuff in the city as a professional, the law school is not only the best in the area but one of the best in the country, which makes it a common choice for those in that line of work.

And let's not forget that this is just people affiliated with the university, which could include members of congress who teach classes at the school, not sure what the congressional roster is like right now but for example Madeline Albright teaches a very popular foreign service course.

Definitely planning on it! Just wanted to see whether you were aware of any issues that might arise. I'll send you a link when I get it working!

Any issues you're aware of with making an arm version of this container? Would love to drop this on my RPi to get an easy VPN pipe back into my home network.

Though it is worth noting that most tech companies solve this problem by providing private shuttle services on a more convenient schedules.

Because that's how RyanAir can afford to chafe their customers cheaper prices than many other airlines. Every ad you remove is an increase in the price of the airfare. Passengers on a budget airline are generally likely to make the trade for lower prices.

Except in the study they found that people who were in higher socioeconomic status now still had the issue. This wouldn't apply most likely, as they most likely more healthy and well nourished now

It's not so much poor food selection as poor access to quality and affordable food. You can eat for a lot longer on $10 if you're buying things on the McDonald's dollar menu than if you're buying fresh produce at Safeway or giant.

The Baltimore Browns probably also didn't play very well from a PR perspective.

I feel like every time I complain about scrum and my frustrations with it to people who believe in it, the response is always "well you just don't understand scrum," or, "you're just not doing scrum correctly." If the process is really as good as it is supposed to be and espoused to be by scrum evangelists (including many of the coaches my companies have hired to help us implement it), then I wonder why it's so hard to do correctly.

I have worked with great engineering teams that have hummed along in informal processes that were similar to Kanban (though not defined as such). As soon as we were forced to switch to scrum, out productivity absolutely tanked, and we couldn't get the things we needed done because we were either in planning meetings all the time or we had to spend longer deciding whether to change our priorities mid-sprint as things would come up or lessons were learned, because that meant a lot of time and energy spent communicating up the chain why things did not get finished or the priorities changed.

You know what I meant on the 50.1 thing, so I'm not going to get into that.

I'm not saying the system we have now is the best one or that it can't be changed. I was just responding to the parent's question of whether a small single issue party could gain traction in the US like the Pirate Party has in other places. Our current system makes that nearly impossible at the national level.

That doesn't work in a system like in the United States where we directly vote for a candidate who needs 50.1% of the vote. In most (all?) if the European countries where the pirate party has experienced success, 15% of the vote equals ~15% of the representation. In the US 15% gets you 0% representation.

That's no good either, because then they are just giving it to you so they can sure you later and steal your startup due to the PATENTS file.

You are assuming in this case that the young man in this case has access to the banking tools that you do, which is a big assumption. Poor and minority populations are less likely to have bank accounts, and more likely to keep their savings in cash[1]. Combine that with the fact that he was more likely to be stopped for being black in the first place and you have a recipe for abuse.

The biggest problem I see with the proposed solutions at the bottom is that the author arrives on the two node-based solutions as the preferred path forward. The reason Wordpress has become so successful over the years is that even the least expensive hosting provider has mod_php installed and you merely have to drop your installation files on the server via FTP. This is easy enough for many less technical people to accomplish. Node, ruby, and the like typically require more advanced and expensive hosting solutions, in my experience.

Of course I haven't used any of these cheap hosting solutions or setup a Wordpress site in a couple years so I might be out of date on the state of things.
