the only thing nosql means is that there are no relations. mongodb 8 and newer for example support schemas and validations, cascading checks, etc. dynamodb, more relevantly does also support a schema, and in fact you can't even create a table without defining one.

but HN is centralized, so you agree if HN exceeds some arbitrary amount of users it should be banned? how ridiculous. tiktok is not any better or worse than facebook, youtube, or the mainstream media.

It doesn't really matter if they ask you or not, ultimately you have to trust them, and if you don't trust Apple, why would you even use an iPhone?

strange comment - this should be a website that would presumably be hosting, where exactly?

the average person would not be able to make something even close to this sheet. where are they going to host it? do they have a domain? certs? do they even know how to write html? css? during a spiky event such as a wildfire, will their website even stay up?

why do people feel so strongly about this? presumably you're only engaging with those you follow, which is at your discretion. does it really matter what platform they're on?

laughably overpriced. if it were any other company this wouldn't be #1 at time of writing. brave, bing and google are an order of magnitude cheaper.

and honestly the quality between all of these search engines are basically the same.

interestingly, my takeaway from this article is that Nodejs isn't actually as slow as I thought. I thought Rust would be at least two orders of magnitude faster. It's barely just one, for the OPs benchmark.

how can it be possible that nodejs is so fast, or that rust isn't multiple orders of magnitude faster (again, for the OPs benchmark it's about 8-10x faster in one case, and only twice as faster in another, which is much faster, but I expected it to be more like 100x faster).

is v8 really that fast? I'd be curious to see a multi threaded version of this implemented (some arbitrary multi-threaded benchmark). there I would hope that rust is multiple orders of magnitude faster, given that node is single threaded (with some caveats, of course as anyone who knows node knows). surely the rust written wasn't written optimally.

given how easy it is to write typescript compared to Rust and Python imho, maybe the JS community isn't as crazy as I thought

interesting to reconcile this with calls to tax the rich. maybe we should be rewarding such effort after all? think about the tens of thousands of jobs created from people working at Google who'd make L3 or less at Google working twice as much...
