This is a pointless distraction from the issue at hand but most free e-books are thinly veiled ads themselves. Their objective is to get you to pay for the author's products or seminars or whatever. It's quite different from the d

That comparison is flawed, the author has already been compensated because you (or a library) bought the book, but virtually no one pays for content online. It's quite simple. If there is no way to get paid for producing quality conten

Nothing stops you from integrating GraphQL with your graph database and I know that people are already working on it. But it isn't a way to specify graph queries , e.g. you can't express concepts like "find the shortest path

Your customers need to be able to trust the quality of the translation because almost by definition they are not in a position to judge it themselves.

This is quite a bit more expensive than agencies I've worked with in the past, and those typically involve a translator + proofreader who are at least somewhat knowledgeable about the topic being translated, so the quality is pretty go

I remember thinking that it was odd when I first read about it, I think it must have been in relation to one of the other compilers and I got my wires crossed, but I can't find the source now. Thanks for the correction anyway.

V8 doesn't use an AST, it uses a CFG, but I believe it comes down to efficiency - it's far cheaper to look at the length of a string than to traverse a graph, and by its nature JS needs very fast compilation times. This is probabl

I was extremely surprised to see LG's profit margin being as low as 1.2c per device. That would be a poor profit margin for a chocolate bar, let alone a smartphone. That is obviously not sustainable.

Agreed. The reason the arangodb team give is the different concurrency models between arangod and node, but I don't think the problem is insurmountable. From the programmers perspective it would be no different from using node's c
