This is actually amazing, I put in the title Show HN: Simple but Powerful IDE for Databases

And received:

I like that it's just Javascript, not Node.

I see that it runs in some sort of Node.js/java application with a JIRA plugin.

Maybe you have tried a "nodejs" based alternative to SQLite and it's a little too early for something you don't like, like PostgreSQL etc.

This is really cool. I'm going to try this out some day and see if it's useful for other databases... especially with the JS support.

If the idea is to do DB migrations/transforms and make that simpler for non-tech users, then I like the idea of using SQL to get it working.

I'm glad the "learn new tools" section has a "Rewrite all the files on one file" option. I'm currently using a Dropbox instance to do this on my Mac.

The context and coherence is a little confused but the grammar and tone is spot on!

"I think that ZFS is a solid alternative for the Raspberry Pi with a proper linux installation.

However, ZFS on Ubuntu on Ubuntu, for example-- does not seem to allow zfs itself - it is the only way to zfs to be installed and run Linux. It would also be good if it had support for the ZFS kernel.

On Ubuntu you can't use the ZFS kernel_ - but on Ubuntu, there is zfs enabled:

Very cool project but how is this different than HN comments?

This is a fantastic idea, great execution. How do you handle upvoting multiple articles for a given site?

Looks like an interesting site, but I don't see the usability. Are there other things in between?
