Are you saying GUI IDEs are best? Or is there an ideal kind of interface we haven't yet seen?

So glad to see someone is doing this so I don't have to!

Datomic much? :)

New comment by shotgun in "Ask HN: CTM gave CS the “kernel language”. Is there a “kernel database”?"

shotgun — Wed, 09 Sep 2015 04:16:50 +0000

Although tangential to your question, I feel you might enjoy presentations by Rich Hickey wherein he describes traditional database architectures and presents the whys and wherefores behind Datomic. For example:

New comment by shotgun in "Riak CS is Now Open Source"

shotgun — Wed, 20 Mar 2013 14:10:03 +0000

This is excellent news. Questions though...does Riak CS need its own dedicated Riak cluster or can you use "its" Riak nodes directly in the usual Riak fashion? If so, is it possible to access the CS-created chunks directly? (Not saying that is a good idea...just trying to understand how Riak and Riak CS fit together.)

I see that the article is tagged "open source." Is CloudFront going to open source Railgun? Publish any papers?

This isn't an announcement about companies supporting Railgun...it's about companies supporting CloudFlare by installing the Railgun Listener.

Rhodes doesn't create 100% native apps. Your compiled app has a web server embedded in it.

That's exactly what they're doing, only the emphasis is more on Google TV related offerings. Also consider their Google Fiber subsidiary's 1000-acre antenna farm in Iowa and you start seeing the future of TV channels...or should I say TV apps?
