You don't have to use anything other than `fetch` to consume a graphql API.

Why not use knex migrations then? I've used it on several projects and it seems to work just fine

Re:o.O - A Pretty Printer for Go on Friday August 23, 2013 @06:41PM (#6266631)
This is pretty cool.

I just wrote my first bit of Go last light. Loving the language so far, though I still feel like I am tripping up on managing dependencies.

Why would you want to do such a thing?!? Love is great!
Cool, but hate the justified text. Makes it harder to read :/
Re:What Linux Distro is the best for a developer on a laptop? on Thursday August 08, 2013 @05:56PM (#6182230)
You nailed it, configuration management. Getting a little difficult managing the Arch servers in production, making sure updates are safe, etc.

Most of our developers seem more comfortable with ubuntu/debian than Arch as well.

It's really just up to what your personal preferences are, mostly related to packaging and setup.

I've been using ArchLinux for a while, but have been slowly moving to stock debian.

Re:PuTTY 0.63 released, fixing four security holes on Tuesday August 06, 2013 @08:30PM (#6170121)
I'm a nix guy, but I believe it's for dealing with setting/managing authentication, authorization, permissions, etc.
Re:System Administrator Appreciation Day on Friday July 26, 2013 @07:21PM (#6111104)
My first exposure to *nix operating systems was when I was a teenager. We had a CompUSA store I was vising with my father, when I convinced him to buy a box with a devil[1] on the front cover.

I took home the box that said 'FreeBSD', popped in the cd(s) and installed, reading the giant manual(s) that came with the discs along the way. I was horrified when I finally was finished, rebooted and was stuck at '$'. Having no real idea what I was doing, I had destroyed my windows installation, and the only way I knew to continue was to keep reading the manuals. My career started right here.

(I believe it was FreeBSD ~4.2, but can't seem to locate a picture of the boxed version.)

Re:Young Coder With Worried Parents. Advice Needed on Saturday April 06, 2013 @11:45PM (#5506037)
Have you tried to just show them what your working on and explain it? Show them your doing something productive, and learning in the process and not just screwing around.

I know Shaun has a great reputation, and I've played his games, but this is exactly how I feel. Wish I could play with it a little bit before I press that "Buy" button.

Re:Ask HN: How do you tell your users about your new features? on Saturday December 29, 2012 @10:21PM (#4984449)
What about showing each user who logins a summary of what's new? It could be in a modal, or could just be a brief area with a link at the top of the page, perhaps pointing to your blog post?

(Also an engineer)
