> RDF/EAV is more graph than relational structured. It doesn't solve the exact same problem. Yeah 100% this. Comparing a graph data model and a relational data model while obviousl…

I'm self-taught and I got my first job through going to user groups and scoping out what was going. Second job was with a much more difficult problem domain, but I'd taught myself …

11 or 10 paid holidays? Do you mean that's the total number of holiday days you get in an entire year? Does that include public holidays?

True, but it's a dangerous precedent. The fact is that a lot of law in areas such as traffic, waste management etc is basically meant to be fluid and a deterrent; if everybody that…

Yeah, I don't really have any faith in legal redress so while I support the intent behind this, I'm wary about actually filling it in.

If you add the Gemfile and Gemfile.lock to the image before you add all the application files you can cache that step IIRC, then only if that step changes will bundle install run, …

I've spent literally the last week working out restart strategies for our critical containers, so it's fair to say this has something pretty world-changing as I might be able to sh…

Mountable volumes and data containers works for us in staging atm, you can easily spin up single task dockers to pull that out, tar it up and send to S3 as a backup regime as well.…

I refused, and then uninstalled the main app. Their required permissions for the Android apps were getting ridiculous.

> Did you learn to program in school or teach yourself? Taught myself JS, then PHP/HTML/CSS, then graphic design, then back-end stuff (Ruby/Python), some regexes, algos and how to …

Don't freak out too much. Make a list of the minimum list of skills you need to do a non-trivial project solo, and learn those. Once you've got that base you can expand out, and if…

> Tests are basically same as free climbers safety lines. Absolutely. So many people seem to aggressively argue for 'test all the things!' or 'test nothing!', where I imagine most …

By that measure the Beatles could be said to be from Hamburg, as that was also formative for their career. Even internationally, I would argue that 'Cavern Club' and 'Beatles' are …

I think it might be closed source. The site looks identical to Popcorn Time, but it's not clear if this is a fork of the original application or a new one based on it.

It is true. As much as any other industry, the music industry is entirely about connections and who you know. This is an interesting article about the biggest new pop music station…

> "Space combat will be rather like air combat: largely a matter of one hit kills." > "space battles will be in essence drive-by shootings. The combatants will plunge towards each …

> Imposing a price floor on labor does nothing besides driving up unemployment. Do you have any evidence to back that up? I know it was orthodoxy like twenty to twenty-five years a…

I also like the new design a lot, though I do agree to some extent about the contrast issue. On a retina monitor it's no worries, but on my external it could probably suffer greate…

Two words: post rock.

Absolutely, or there's a focus on process rather than real decision making. Either there's no clear leadership or people are passing the buck in lieu of making a call that might tu…

Wow, that's almost a work of art.

This is the second project named 'Q' that's been on HN in the last week or so. All cool ideas, but some Googling first by all parties would probably ease confusion.[0] [0] https://…

This is why I should not be allowed to name things, clearly.

Haha, well fair enough - even more reason to have checked I suppose. Maybe textQ would be more appropriate given this project's use case?
