Interesting area and well done on the work !

Have you looked at https://perspective.finos.org/ ? It has at least some overlaps and can manage pretty big datasets by levering Arrow in WASM in the browser.

This exists already as part of Family Sharing.

You can do everything you said when you manage your kids accounts (manage contacts, whitelist internet websites, define appropriate content ratings and so on.

So you are basically in agreement with the gp by saying that your A players get shortchanged because they suck at negotiating...

Ask HN: What is complex about accounting systems?

I don't know much about accounting but it seems conceptually quite simple.However in the enterprise every evolution to the accounting systems is met with huge costs estimation and suggestion to use horrendously expensive vendor packages whose technology stacks seems very outdated.Why is that ? Is there a good and modern open source software for this purpose ?

Re:Draw.io: Online Diagramming Website on Tuesday November 12, 2019 @10:29AM (#21514816)
It is a great tool !

Only issue with it is that the source code (of the front-end) is quite hairy to understand and modify. I tried to add support for Github Enterprise (https://github.com/jgraph/drawio/issues/473) and was quite lost.

Re:AVX-512: when and how to use these new instructions on Friday September 07, 2018 @04:23PM (#17937358)
It seems like this should enable JIT compilers (java/.net/js) to realise even more of their theorical gains.
Thanks, looks quite useful.

However it seems based on https://github.com/uber/ringpop-go which is marked as no longer active...

What are you using to implement rate limiting ?

I was thinking like you but they say they compute usage on a 3 month rolling average basis. So an infrequent hit should not be an issue.
Re:Ask HN: Raw SQL vs. ORM? on Wednesday April 11, 2018 @07:49AM (#16810166)
I like using what is sometimes called Micro-ORM. Basically it does the mapping of query results to objects and sometimes has a basic query builder but you mostly use raw sql.

Dapper (https://github.com/StackExchange/Dapper) is a great one for .NET.

AWS Re:invent is in the end of november. I'd guess there will be some annoucements there ...
No if you raise the apogee without giving the object any additional speed, the perigee will be lower.
Looks interesing ! Isn't this some kind of event sourcing or am I missing something ?
Re:Apple Increases Prices of Macs in U.K. By 20 Percent on Friday October 28, 2016 @09:02AM (#12815294)
Be aware that in some countries the sticker price is including VAT/Sales Tax which I think is not the case in the US.
Re:Show HN: A Bot to Deploy to AWS, Digital Ocean Etc. on Monday August 29, 2016 @04:27AM (#12380706)
An issue I have with these git driven deployment process (not your specifically which looks well thought-out) is that your are starting from source each time.

I like my deployment across environments to use the exact same binaries that have been validated. Is it just me that is afraid of introducing issues by not doing that ?

Re:AWS Elasticsearch Service Woes on Monday June 27, 2016 @07:56AM (#11985567)
The main issue of this service is just that it is very outdated (it only supports ES 1.5.2) when the latest is 2.3.3 and ES 5 is just around the corner.

The recent versions are far more stable and includes lots of efficiency in terms of memory usage.
