I would say they are useful, specially against a relational database, when you have a ever-growing or dynamic amount of different entity types that are all related between each other. With a knowledge graph you only don't need to create new tables every time you define new entity types, you also can give semantic meaning to the relationships between them.

Offtopic: I'm seeing a trend of titles that, as a non native English speaker, always confuse me and take me a good couple of seconds to finally understand. This is one of them. It's like they use a comma where I would expect an "and" to be. I wish I had more examples to show, but I have seen a lot here in HN. Is this some new editorial style or was this always used?

LineageOS 19 4 years ago

Good tip. My device doesn't have any official build newer than 17.1 so I may need to start building my own images.

My motivation has usually been to add features/fixes that *I* would consider useful for my particular use cases, and most times it's for software I use in my personal time or personal projects.

Expecting to get paid for your first contributions to open source sounds, to me, like the wrong motivation.

I don't really know, but since there are no manufacturers that built good TrackPoints I think its either hard or there really is no demand (sadly more likely).

Those are good points. I'm thinking there could be patents involved too.

I don't need a touchpad though. Actually, one of the best laptops I've owned was one without a touchpad [1].

That's true! I don't really use the touchpad on my X230, even though it's there.

Interesting. I don't know of any similar option in Python's json module, which is the one that I mostly use, but good to know this exists.

Parsing a CSV can be done in a line-per-line basis, while a an array of arrays in JSON is not valid until you reach the end.

How would any existing JSON parser handle 75GB of data in a single array of arrays?

Public Suffix List 5 years ago

Got it, thanks for the thorough response.

I guess that, regardless of this, there is still an ownership difference between the multiple levels in your example, and the ownership difference between a TLD and a SLD. In your example, nsw.gov.au controls the TLD and they could register dept2.nsw.gov.au without asking anyone else, they could even register a.b.c.d.dept2.nsw.gov.au, but they can't register nsw2.gov.au. I assume that's why the PSL is still useful for some use cases, but I agree this one is definitely not one.

I'm having trouble understanding your example. Who is the correct owner of dev.app.org.dept.nsw.gov.au and how does Let's Encrypt get it without the use of such list?
