Eh, I might be off topic, but to me Greece seems helpless and beyond saving. Here is a personal anecdote. Before finishing university, I got a job offer by a very prestigious international company. I accepted, and decided to register myself

I am genuinely curious about the tech start-ups that give you "street-cred" in SF. At most of the places I hang out at they dislike techies and blame on them the rising rent prices, monoculture, in general the cultural demise of

I have it as a rule to stay away from companies that position themselves as "We 're like a family". Yes this company is exactly like a family where dad keeps all the money, gets to beat us up, or put us up for adoption if he

This reminds me of a silly joke. 2 friends are talking, one of them has just lit a cigarette. -"Dude, how much do you smoke? And do you like porsche cars?" -"Around a pack a day. And yeah mate, I love em!" -"Dude a

China was severely impacted. Their big web companies are so far almost all based on US products that were banned in China. They also failed to capture any international audience and are mostly only successful within China. Baidu, a copy of

please check the comments at this very page. Some people claim that everyone involved is a charlatan, one specifically says "F... ICOs" and someone else that all ICOs could disappear and no value would be lost. EDIT: I agree with

We are now somewhen in the 90s, somewhere in the US. Welcome. People are getting scammed when buying things online. The elderly are sending money to Nigerian princes. There are rapists and murderers on chatrooms preying for victims. Kids ad

My comment above (about the bribery) was a joke. I am surprised that people took it at face value. But no matter the joke, in no other language you 'd see packages like "is-true", "is-false", "ifAnd" (beca

I have a (conspiracy) theory, that JS developers bribe and pay each other to include their projects as useless NPM dependencies, so they can rack up downloads and go to the next employer with a "My package has 2 million downloads, I wa

Got it. So the above example that I gave with SQL is pretty much the same thing as GraphQL. Assuming you would have a SQL resolver that just like the GraphQL resolver filters out things that should never hit the DB. So GraphQL is a middlewa

I understand and agree with you with the issues about REST. But I still don't understand why GraphQL is not unsafe. For example, assuming that we have an endpoint that returns a list of users but skips banned users. Would I have to do

I have 2 very naive questions about graphql. I am not trying to poke holes or antagonize, I just want to learn. 1. First one is, if graphql is a query language - why not use an existing query language that many people are familiar with alre

I never understood the love for package managers that directly hook and import things into your codebase or repo or even worse servers. I guess the benefit is that "it just works", but the fact that you do not know where a package
