I whole-heartedly agree. The thing about ORM is exactly that it is so easy to get a false sense of security of "everything working" while you're clearly doing sub-optimal things all the time. It's just a fact in order to

I felt opposed to your argument that staying would have been better for him. His and our visibility what the outcome would have been is near zero. He would have been in prison, but how long - no one can say. A smart person wouldnt bet on su

I saw the scooter/motor bike craze in India and I have to say I was not impressed. It was a necessity, yes, but instead of everyone riding million scooters public transport should be the main mode of transportation for majority of peop

Well I just replied to a comment before you, but we are definitely on the same page here. It's a mess when you start your first NodeJS backend, especially if there's nobody to help you. You'll probably make some terrible mist

Well your argument is a lot more nuanced than the original comment I responded to. And I agree, it is burdensome especially for people not familiar with NodeJS that there isn't a one-size-fits-all framework. I don't really know th

Like others have mentioned, this is an apple vs orange comparison. Ruby & Rails is not the same as NodeJS. A popular framework which you probably used with NodeJS is Express, that as its documentation states tries to be a minimal framew

I'm not disagreeing that in this case non-violent approach isn't the best. But depending on the setting, the parameters if you will, that approach might be inefficient. Another example would be the people living under the Stalin&#

Well, you know. You expect the violent person to be ashamed of themselves. That's a very bold assumption. A psychopath or sociopath won't feel a thing when they order their army to mow down peaceful protestors. It's a beautif

So if a carnivore orders vegan food at restaurant, it stops being vegan? Well does that make sense? In my opinion if restaurant offers only apples as the "vegan option" i think it's correct to call it vegan food. But since i

If there's something developers like to complain about it is JavaScript and JIRA among other things... I agree with the overall thesis but do not like the presentation. The world is run by hacks one uglier than the other. Javascript, d

I bet Americans are feeling pretty free with the on-going mass-shootings and rampant outright bribing of politicians by corporations and lobbyists. I am happy with the security. To me American system feels insane and is characterized by del

Looks like a major pain in the ass to manage. Why not use AWS Lambda or other FAAS? And wait, the whole site is hosted with k8s using some Nginx server? Where's the CDN and frankly, object storage like S3 would seem a much better fit f

Not the OP, but; yes, living in a society where human-traffickers can work in broad day-light because everybody is only concerned by their own business. I must be living in my pro-Western delusion in thinking that's not right. Sure, th

Tit-for-tat. From my scarce knowledge of game-theory and world-politics it is generally accepted as the default move in these types of situations. But well, if India sees Huawei as security threat, shouldn't they have a quite good just

Enough different to explain why it's 5.5 times more expensive? Knowing US military spending, F-35 as the most prominent example, it will surely be engineered to withstand every possible scenario there could exist. And US will have the

Sure, but I assume that even those who were kidnapped were, in majority, plausibly interested in terrorism or something in that regard. So even though NSA snooping you is bad, at least they're mostly interested in terrorists or I guess

Well I won't downvote you, but your reasoning is a bit poor. There are many open source IDEs out there, VSCode just being just one of the few. So why not boycott all those other editors too? You also imply that because Microsoft is s

I think that's an exaggerated reaction. Bugs happen all the time, is this one any different because it involved such unusual circumstance? It wasn't a security bug, and how many users did actually freshly install Webpack on Window

It's sad to see these threads get quickly out of hand with emotions getting the best of some of the HN audience. I have been commenting from time to time in these threads, but it seems impossible at times to have rational discussion. I

Well sure American and other companies have tried to gain market share in China, but China has effectively stifled a lot of foreign competitors from entering. So it's not very symmetric free trade with China, therefore giving some ju

Well there is evidence that Chinese spied on African Union's members through the servers they installed. Tangential, i know, but would it be that crazy to expect them to do the same if they had full access to a 5G network without fear
