Does anyone know if Docker Toolbox supports NFS (or something faster than VBox Shared Folders) yet?

So you're saying it costs as much as a down payment on a house in the Bay Area to own my own airplane? I'd rather do that and then live nearly anywhere in the 400 mile range that it provides, and probably be happier.

Let me clarify a little: I think the name GraphQL for sure makes sense from a technical point of view. But from a marketing point of view, it has been a nightmare and makes it _unusually_ difficult for others to initially grasp.

You totally can. One restriction (that you might be confused with) is that Relay currently only supports root fields with a single argument (which would typically be an ID). But arbitrary arguments on any other field are totally supported.

It's important to realize that you're essentially defining an API for your product. If something is expensive to access, you should either not expose it directly through your API, or add appropriate levels of caching to mitigate t

Anecdote: when Relay/GraphQL were first announced, we tried to get Relay without GraphQL by writing JSON. This had some advantages (a query was a valid/renderable response!) ...but we had some really ugly JSON. It was worth it for

To expand on lgas' answer, you can certainly over fetch with Relay/GraphQL if your product needs to. The intent is to prevent accidental/unintentional over or under fetching that leads to bugs or poor experiences.

Every time there's a new post about GraphQL, I become even more concerned that "GraphQL" was the wrong name to use publicly. It seems like most people assume it's just another combination of two buzzwords, Graph and QL,

It sounds like what you're looking for is Business Intelligence. There are a couple of cloud tools like Chartio, Tableau, Looker, etc that provide similar functionality.

This seems really close to what YC started as. Why the spinoff?

I agree. It also seems like they had a relatively straight forward migration path that worked out really well. Sounds like good decisions were made at the right times.

There seems to be an awful lot of gratuitous negativity going on here. The site was on Reddit yesterday, now it's on the front page of HN. Maybe the author can't throw a lot of resources at it, or they used the project as an excus

If you write most of your code in JS, you technically don't even need to build this on a Mac. For development, you could get away with just updating the bundle and re-signing the app locally.

Absolutely. My primary concern is with the controls feeling native. Reimplementing controls with UIViews doesn't seem much better than reimplementing them with HTML/CSS (save for performance). There's still surface area to br

For some definitions of "100% native UI." I'm a little concerned because, for example, a button is not implemented as a native UIButton, and a ListView doesn't use UITableView. Instead they are composed of native UIViews

How much? IMO Level Frames seems pretty expensive... A 6x9 frame starts around $41, not including $15 for shipping.

Are any of these resources available for anyone who isn't already a YC founder? Does that make sense? Wouldn't it be valuable to give interested folks who aren't yet in YC a place to do their prototyping, get discounts, and h

You might have experienced a brief moment of depersonalization[1]. It can be a desirable state for some, but for others (like myself), it has caused the past six years to be hell. [1] http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depe
