We didn't have any to show off something based on RethinkDB. I'm looking forward to your example app that takes a program and tells you whether or not it will ever finish executing.

We had lots of people asking "how do I get started with RethinkDB and stack X". These familiar examples can be extremely helpful to people for getting started with a new technology, so we posted a couple based on existing code. Obviously they're not meant to be new or groundbreaking :)

Nice, a negative comment on Hacker News! We don't have enough of those either.

I would love to try out your DB, but your build system is garbage, and I mean that in the most constructive way possible. I know you guys put lots of effort into it, I can tell as I am reading through it trying to get it to compile on my Fedora system. Please for all that is good in this world take the time _now_ and switch to a sane build system. I know its cool that you scripted everything in Make, but this is stupid how hard it is to build on Fedora.

I am putting together a patch and instructions for fedora, but this is silly.

EDIT: https://gist.github.com/4696023 Turned out to not be too big of a change BTW.

If you only knew how much we agree with you :) We have an engineer working on that now, so it will soon be much, much nicer. Also, thanks for the instructions, I'll post them on the build page after I confirm everything.

Could you make a RethionkDB Heroku Add-On ? I would definitely try it out then.
