Typically the endpoints clients are multiple frontend developers. If the frontend is blocked for every page they need waiting on the backend to expose data that massively increases the costs of features and reduces the time for delivery.
I never said "they should do apps for free". I was rebutting the idea that small app developers don't give any thought to pricing and just use a monthly subscription, which sounds like more work than just giving it away for free. If they landed on a subscription model they must have given it _some_ thought.

A REST endpoint can be analogous to a specific method in code. just as much as a GraphQL field.

What people are excited about is that the frontend can request all the data it needs at once and the backend can efficiently serve it. Something not possible with REST without reimplementing something similar to GraphQL.
> Everyone has to eat, and everyone who has a car has to get it fixed sometimes.

I realize this isn't what you meant, but some people have gardens to supplement their food supply and some people repair their own car. I'm not a car owner, but I do repair my own bike and the reason for it is that the required parts and tools are usually much less expensive than a one-time repair (with the biggest expense, tools, being spread across multiple repairs).

As for the regulation of health care, it exists for a reason. Some of those reasons are for the public good. You only need to look at alternative medicine to understand that there are a lot of snake oils salesmen out there. Letting people portray themselves as legitimate doctors would only muddy the water. Then there are factors such as competence. It is difficult enough to deal with in a regulated system, never mind an unregulated one.

I’m figuring it out and I fully expect that to always be true. One thing I tried to do was be as honest with myself as possible about what was important to me. I concluded that being fit and healthy and maintaining financial independence were the most important because they are the enablers for everything else but they need balancing between each other. A lot of people work too long for more money and find themselves in a position where they are less capable mentally or physically. And some people sacrifice their health for money. You can have all the money in the world but it’s much less use to you if you’re unhealthily and unfit. After that are the things that take advantage of you health and the time financial freedom gives you. Spend more time with the people you love, particular those who are closer to not being here. Do things for other, help people out, not just financially. Carpe diem, do things while you can. Go and climb that mountain. Make the places you live beautiful places to be. Travel. Make the most of your time through being highly productive. They are the tenets I follow. Then I have a million things I want to do. I use Obsidian to record these things and what I need to do to make them happen then organise those things to create schedules for each day. So I know each day what I need to do to make progress towards the things I really want to do.
I'll add that while that may be true. I find that it doesn't matter what kind of screen it is - my kids are like moths to flame. Its the backlit lighting + some kind of interactivity that makes it attractive to play with.

Deploying a Production Grade Web App is very subjective and can be done in may different ways. Some of it also depends on the specific tech stack you are using (JS vs PHP etc).

What you need is to first learn some basics of few things:

- Web Servers (nginx, Apache, Caddy etc). They usually process request and then pass them on to what we usually call "App Servers". For some languages like PHP, you will need additional service like PHP-FPM or Wsgi for Python as web servers like nginx/caddy cannot directly process those.

- App/API Server. The server actually running the application and/or APIs (.e.g a PHP or PYthon or Typescript app).

- Load Balancers: Optional but usually a good idea for Production grade apps where you at least have 2 App Servers under the Load Balancer. Some platforms can auto scale it. For example, AWS ECS (using containers) or Heroku (dynos). Usually these are the entry points for an external User Request.

- Database server: Usually where you Db is hosted. Most people go with hosted solutions such as AWS RDS etc.

- A way to deploy your code changes to the App Servers. Usually connected with a version control like Git. Fancy term is CI/CD where you can do code changes automatically through Git etc using certain configuration files.

Note that technically, you can do all of the above on an actual single hardware/machine but usually they are set up separate.

However, before deploying, you need to build. For someone like you, I highly suggest starting with a tested framework with batteries included (e.g. Laravel for PHP, Django for Python, rails for Ruby etc). These frameworks also provide great deployment options. For example, laravel has forge which basically does everything for you in terms of deployment.
Everything else will be noise for you including things like Kubernetes etc. Don't even worry about those until you have a need (most don't).
A really well done one though! I've seen some ridiculous bootcamp apps, this one was hackernews front-page worthy. Very impressive work.
Almost guaranteed this doesn't build in ~2 years and you would likely need to know all of those languages to fix it.
> If they want to adhere to said code of conduct, of course... which was made -- first and foremostly -- for and by softies to avoid altercation.

This is a really poor way to look at this.

Using this type of language is probably part of the reason the code of conduct exists.

People that work for free on something don't deserve this. No one deserves this. I'm particularly angered by this type of thing because I deal with horrible colleagues all the time. I'm working on getting away from this situation but the job market is not easy to navigate right now. No one should have to feel like the work they do is negatively impacting their mental health because some random on the internet has forgotten they're talking to another human being.

Sailors and fishermen are recruited internationally from poor countries, then treated like slaves. No country's law reaches these ships, and they're ultimately owned by corporations that have no reason to care.

I stopped using it as much. I had some reports of using it for several hours per day, which as an adult with kids was sort of internally shameful and humiliating. Yet it kept happening despite efforts to prevent it.

The watch did a few things. It made it so I didn’t feel like I needed my phone around since my urge to have it was communication with my family or work. So, with that handled I could relax and leave the phone at home.

It also allowed me to see quite clearly how unnecessary my phone actually was. I rarely actually use my watch while out and about because the instances in which I imagined I’d need my phone were mostly false. The watch is useful, but maybe a few times per week rather than per day.

Finally it demonstrated that the utility I imagined my phone had outside of necessity was a lot more limited than I thought. Apps and cameras are cool, but not using them is, too. I really don’t care that my phone is gone when it’s gone.

So, I’ve gained up to hours per day of my life back and broke a terrible habit. I tried willing myself out of it but failed. Ultimately the watch was a great solution.

The trick is actually putting the phone away, though. If you carry both you’ll just use the phone anyway.

>"can do bulk processing on data in your database way more efficiently than anything living in the application layer."

Not necessarily. All depends on particulars. Very complex processing of reasonably sized chunk of data especially when can be done in multiple threads / distributed can be way more efficient.

I've head very real case: consulting company was hired by TELCO to write the code that will take content of the database and create one huge file containing invoices to clients. Said file would then be sent to a print house that can print the actual invoices, and mail those to clients.

They tried to do it with stored procedures and had failed miserably - it would run for a couple of days give or take and then crash.

I was called for help. Created 2 executables. On is a manager and the other is multithreaded calculator that did all the math. Calculator was put on 300 client care workstations as a service. Dispatcher would do initial query from accounts table for current bill cycle, split account id's into few arrays and send those arrays to calculators. Calculators would suck needed data in bulk from a database, do all the calculations and send the results back to dispatcher for merging into final file. TELCO people were shocked when they realized that they can have print file in less than 2 hours.
This happens anyway.

Would be nice to have a law saying anything with a reasonable expectation of wear must be user replaceable.

For example, every modern Mac will turn into e-waste within a decade since that SSD has to wear out. I don't care how high of a quality SSD you use, it just won't last forever.

My 2-year-old MacBook Air would be the perfect computer if I could just put a larger SSD in it, but I can't. So I'm already looking at buying a new computer.
I'm rooting for you, but I live in snow country and always have a chuckle any time someone says self driving will be ready soon. There's so many situations that need to be handled when driving in winter and some of them I can't even imagine how you'd address in software.

Winter here changes daily between

- no road lines visible

- snow packed into ice randomly making the road a a camouflage pattern

- snow is fresh/deep so no road is visible and you navigate based on the slight hump in the snow where you know there's a curb

- same as above, but instead of a curb a slight indent where there's a ditch

- slush piles outside the tire lanes, which if hit will suck you in or cause you to spin out

- ice/snow on hills, so time your arrival for rolling stops at intersections because stopping is not an option

- active snowfall (limited camera vision, and I'm guessing reduced/useless signal from lidar)

- hail

- sporadic black ice (its easy to slow down when its icy everywhere, but knowing when and where black ice is likely when it's sporadic is a skill)

- the "lanes" formed by peoples tires in the snow often don't align with the official road, and sometimes a lane goes missing in this situation

And all that's after you deal with sensor cleaning.
That is pretty much what many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics says.
When I got covid I had a few months where I had really bad brain fog and bad lung capacity and couldn't do much. Every evening I'd do a low effort loop on my bike around the neighborhood to get out of the house. Since then I've bought a nicer road bike and am putting up 100km a week and doing some real climbs and it's been my favorite hobby.
> What if your engineers change $client/$server and the new version makes really expensive queries?

Yes, so the cost benefit here is not in favor of GraphQL. If both technologies ultimately suffer from the same issues (what to do about unpredictable clients), but one is far more complex to implement and use (GraphQL), then there's a clear winner. Spoiler, its not GraphQL.

Page specific endpoints, I would argue, can do 99% of what GraphQL was trying to do. If you want to use it as some sort of template language for constructing page specific endpoints, that could be useful (the same way xml schema is useful for specifying complex xml documents).

But you can optimize a page specific endpoint, and do it with REST-style endpoint to boot.

Having a bunch of "simple" calls and optimizing for the "complex" ones that you need using metrics/analysis is what you should be doing, not creating a complex API that is far harder to break down into "simple" cases.
I agree, but I think it does depend on what the objective is. If preserving the literal accuracy of the source material is important, then memorization deserves it's bad rap and is worthy of much criticism.

That's not to say that people can't memorize things accurately (there are plenty of kids who memorize Bible and Quran verses verbatim for example that can easily disprove that), but memories are fallible in ways that writing isn't, particularly when it comes to comparing sources for accuracy or historical value.

On the other hand, if the objective is to understand and appreciate the source, even simply for personal edification or enlightenment, then I agree completely: memorization is a wonderful technique for doing so.
At TableCheck, our frontend engineers started raising backend PRs for simple API stuff. If you use a framework like Rails, once you have the initial API structure sketched out, 80% of enhancements can be done by backend novices.
There were reports mostly from southwestern regions, near Ukrainian territories.

You do if you want to get food and don't grow everything yourself?
Thanks for the comments. Regarding re-chunking: I assume the models, the strategies, the dependencies are continuously checken, improved and adapted. I would assume also a re-chunking should be necessary. Not every day of course, but how I can assess the quality of my chunking? Running in parallel benchmarks on two different chunking strategies? Thats means I would need to do double work, creating and using continuously two different chunk systems. Any ideas how to evaluate the quality and performance of my chunking strategy?

I also shake strangers hands and eat food made by teenagers and use public bathrooms and pet cats and sleep in hotel rooms. My children (if/when they occur) will attend daycare and school with other sacks of disease and share the spoils with me, as is tradition. Our society is dirty.

Do you avoid handrails and sanitize the doorknobs and gas pumps you interact with? Those are going to be far worse than subway chairs. It's probably not a bad idea, but it's a bit beyond what I suspect most people consider normal. I had a friend who lived like that, and he ended up being diagnosed with OCD.
Nice work, this is really solid!

I've had something like this on my mind for a while. I really think there are some great use cases for AI around supporting/enhancing human cognition rather than trying to outsource our thinking. In this case of this, being able to rapidly "expand" your working memory with whatever is present in these cards is promising.

I look forward to seeing what you do with this.

The consensus I get from these comments is GraphQL is ultimately a failure as a REST API alternative. It’s useful for very specific cases that most companies don’t have.
Yes, GraphQL is a "contract" in the sense that a blank check is also a "contract".

"Immediately" can mean a bunch of different things in a driving context! Here it means "within ten seconds". Which is both short and long: it's long enough that many of the things you might want to do that take your attention are fine (reading, watching a movie, working) but not long enough that you can sleep.

Funnily enough a lot of people trotted out the "only old people wear watches" argument when the Apple Watch came out as a reason why it was going to be a failure.

That said, I canceled my cellular plan on my original one and really mostly use it as a GPS device when hiking. It's easier just to use a watch that doesn't need charging day to day.
That backend engineer wrote a single SQL query that joined some tables, ensured indices were used, and always executed in <1ms.

In graphql land you'd be doing multiple SQL queries, "joining" in the API layer, and spending 50ms per API call.

Residences are crucial for actual clinical learning, it's more developmental than medical school which is a broad base for understanding physiology. Most doctors at teaching programs will tell you: even 3rd-year med students barely know a thing. Could they likely do the same tasks as first-year NPs who went straight from RN to NP school without any clinical experience? Yes, probably, but they almost certainly would have the same vulnerability NPs do: they don't have anywhere close to the same understanding of the physiology critical for decision-making outside of typical cases or considering interactions of different indicators.

That said, I do think there's probably more of a role for some graduating med students than we use now. I don't think they need a 3-year residency to enable them for many general practitioner duties particularly in rural settings where the patient load is less, the pay is likely less, but the cases are more homogenous.

Right, so CGI is quite old by now, which is basically this: a binary in a directory and a proxy that throws packets at it.

It has its pros and cons. In some cases it's actually quite nice to have a platform like Wildfly or the BEAM, or you knew so little about the future load peaks that you started with cheap shared hosting and hence PHP so when you outgrow it FastCGI and nginx is a much better option than a great rewrite to Golang.

Building in the languages and on the platforms you already know will always be much faster and more convenient than betting on someone else's 'bees knees'.

Most doctors are not particularly wealthy.

Probably close to half of doctors make less money than the average person working at FAANG.

Medical school is outrageously expensive.

If you think people are going to put up with the misery of being a doctor, delay any wages until 34, basically live a lower middle class life until 50 while paying of medical school debts, and then barely be in the top 10% after that - you're gonna have a really bad pool of people signing up to be a doctor.

We absolutely do not need to be making medical school EVEN MORE expensive.
