    > Unfortunately now those 250K people who reserved a Model 3 could be driving a EV right now and making an impact instead of waiting for 3 more years. This is a false dichotomy. As…

    Does anyone know if Docker Toolbox supports NFS (or something faster than VBox Shared Folders) yet?

    So you're saying it costs as much as a down payment on a house in the Bay Area to own my own airplane? I'd rather do that and then live nearly anywhere in the 400 mile range that i…

    Let me clarify a little: I think the name GraphQL for sure makes sense from a technical point of view. But from a marketing point of view, it has been a nightmare and makes it _unu…

    You totally can. One restriction (that you might be confused with) is that Relay currently only supports root fields with a single argument (which would typically be an ID). But ar…

    It's important to realize that you're essentially defining an API for your product. If something is expensive to access, you should either not expose it directly through your API, …

    Anecdote: when Relay/GraphQL were first announced, we tried to get Relay without GraphQL by writing JSON. This had some advantages (a query was a valid/renderable response!) ...but…

    To expand on lgas' answer, you can certainly over fetch with Relay/GraphQL if your product needs to. The intent is to prevent accidental/unintentional over or under fetching that l…

    Every time there's a new post about GraphQL, I become even more concerned that "GraphQL" was the wrong name to use publicly. It seems like most people assume it's just another comb…

    It sounds like what you're looking for is Business Intelligence. There are a couple of cloud tools like Chartio, Tableau, Looker, etc that provide similar functionality.

    This seems really close to what YC started as. Why the spinoff?

    I agree. It also seems like they had a relatively straight forward migration path that worked out really well. Sounds like good decisions were made at the right times.

    There seems to be an awful lot of gratuitous negativity going on here. The site was on Reddit yesterday, now it's on the front page of HN. Maybe the author can't throw a lot of res…

    If you write most of your code in JS, you technically don't even need to build this on a Mac. For development, you could get away with just updating the bundle and re-signing the a…

    Absolutely. My primary concern is with the controls feeling native. Reimplementing controls with UIViews doesn't seem much better than reimplementing them with HTML/CSS (save for p…

    For some definitions of "100% native UI." I'm a little concerned because, for example, a button is not implemented as a native UIButton, and a ListView doesn't use UITableView. Ins…

    How much? IMO Level Frames seems pretty expensive... A 6x9 frame starts around $41, not including $15 for shipping.
