How would RethinkDB's real-time capabilities compare to doing something like this with Mongo? (I'm genuinely curious about any shortcomings with the following implementation, besides scaling.) // plugins/repl

I'll start posting about it when things are further along. Unfortunately, I'm only one man and lack the resources to fund a team, unlike Facebook. It's just frustrating to see all this hype surrounding React/Relay when

Sorry. I was hesitant to post the comment to begin with given that I'm 100% sure I'd be downvoted, which it was literally within 1 minute of posting it. You can check my comment history for details on the project.

The best kinds of side projects are the fun ones. When you really enjoy working on something, you really don't need to "stay motivated". I love to code and I love to build things, and I would lose my sanity if there was only

Merry Christmas, everyone. I tend to lurk a lot, but this is one of the few programming communities where I don't expect to be met with negativity and condescension every time I post something. And beyond that, just reading everyone&

Loggur ( https://www.loggur.com ) launched a few days ago. It's still pretty rough around the edges but the core concept is to be able to use interchangeable parts to build web apps in real-time with other developers. It of

Tim here. I figure HN is the best place to post first about Loggur, given that without HN, I would not have made it this far. I also hope you all see the usefulness of Loggur as clearly as I do. Loggur honestly took entirely too long to b

I've known a few psychopaths myself. It is interesting how they react when you make it clear you know all about their deception. I personally find it hilarious that they think they're able to dupe everyone they meet, but I also
