You are coming from the opposite side. Go is leaner, like Nodejs and PHP can be used without any frameworks as batteries are included. Asking for ORM means you are comfortable in your framework world. You will have to adopt, if you want to

PHP, Nodejs, Go are languages and have communities that prefer libraries (not exclusively). First it needs a language with batteries included, so the language offers already so many features out of the box. It's great not to have to wo

Can this be right? Tesla and Waymo as contender and Ford and GM as leader? I mean Tesla autopilot v2 and Waymo (Google) are pretty impressive.

The worst site I visited the last 7days (iOS). A lot of things broken, flickering, broken scrolling, overlapping things, slow, laggy, buggy. Do you even test for mobile? Why is this on HN frontpage?

Asia? You came a few years to late... Friendster was US focused, at least until it lost. Then the probably pivoted, but I wrote about the first phase of Friendster (the one everyone in US remembers who was active online in early 2000s).

I would be interested if Dgraph can handle the full Freebase dataset. (250 GB RDF) How long does it load? What's the avg query response for very simple searches (like who is the US president)?

What's up with this toy dataset? The movie subset is just 21 mio facts. (21million.rdf.gz) Can someone run the benchmark for the real Freebase (1.9 billion facts)? Also LevelDB/Bolt is not suitable for this, better use MongoDB or

The movie subset, or the whole Freebase? The Freebase Film Data has only 21M facts. Freebase 1.9 billion facts.

Some things simply don't scale. You can't do some things in real-time. You have to do it in batch-jobs or avoid them. If you know about the O-notation, you will probably know certain algos don't scale. Friendster insisted to

1) Friendster had scaling issues. They insisted on keeping the x-degree-of-friendship-calculation which is quite resource expensive and doesn't scale. Instead making the software scalable, they brought in expensive exec who decided to

Friendster and MySpace failed because of scaling issues - but it was not scaling per se but bad execution: They choose the wrong technology, brought in the wrong CTOs who bought very expensive hardware (wrong, few expensive high end servers

What's the best way to load Freebase in 2017? Cayley with Postgres storage? Or some other RDF/graph DB? Or ElasticSearch? Or dump it in Postgres/MySQL? I am not interested in complex queries, but simple queries that execute r

I see Cayley now supports other backends beside LevelDB. "PostgreSQL and MongoDB for distributed stores" - that's good to read.

How matured is it? Has someone used it for big datasets? Last time I tried it wasn't ready to cope with a 250 GB N-Triples RDF. (two years ago)

It would be great if some Linux distros clear up the directory mess. There are directories in there with names that no ones remembers what they originally meant in the UNIX of 1970s, or what ever. For compatibility they could be just hard&#

Which RDF data store uses Postgres as DB backend? And can one import WikiData? (does it scale) (I would rather avoid these old school RDF special case stores from SematicWeb days 10 years ago.)
