pretty sure their support team is a flaky ML model that is haplessly flagging random accounts

thanks!

congrats on this milestone.

I’m currently using a graph database (dgraph) mostly so I can easily query complex relationships), and I’m wondering whether EdgeDB has similar performance due to how it stores data?

my understanding of EdgeDb is that it stores everything in a single table, and there’s an underlying graph structure. does this give added performance on complex queries?in other words, does EdgeDB perform complex queries involving multiple relationships better than an equivalent complex Postgres JOIN query? how does the performance compare to the average graph database for queries involving complex relationships? has it been performance tested on complex queries?

Same. However, you can just hit (command/ctrl)-shift-N to create a new Incognito Window and view those pages that way.

Totally agree. I stopped using Twitter because I got so tired of rewording everything to fit into 140 characters. The most interesting people on Twitter tend to use multiple tweets to broadcast one message, and join them up with "...", but when I see that I'd rather they had just written a short blog post and linked it.

In my opinion, what Twitter is most useful for is sharing links and short updates to prompt action from your followers, like reading your new blog post. And because of this, it's not the kind of place where you want to spend a lot of time, because the content isn't that engaging, it's just the news ticker that you scroll through for 5 minutes and leave.

Well, it matters if you care about measuring your fat loss. Measuring fat loss by tracking weight is less accurate, because muscle is heavier than fat, if you are exercising to lose fat you may get heavier due to increased muscle mass, even though you are thinner, i.e. carrying less fat. There are other factors that affect your weight, such as water retention. As for why to measure at the hip, well, there isn't much muscle around that area compared to say your thigh, so the size of the muscle is not affecting the measurement output so much, meaning you are measuring fat loss, rather than fat+muscle loss/gain. (Muscle loss is generally not a good thing, it's very important to our health).

Personally I think we need a way to measure our health rather than tracking metrics that can encourage unhealthy relationships with our bodies. Ideally we would be able to quickly assess how close we are to a healthy level of body fat, lean muscle mass, be it is too high or too low. Measuring how heavy / big you are feeds into "weight status" and "thigh gap" fixation. In a less-imperfect world we'd be competitive about how healthy we are, rather than silly and often unhealthy things like thinness, and weight.

Some feedback about the website; the nicescroll.js plugin reduces usability in my opinion. It changes the expected behaviour of my browser, and it took me a couple of tries to get the page to stop where I wanted it to.

What do the points in the left-most column represent?

Nice! I had a similar idea myself. Have you thought about how you could reassure users that data really has been deleted?

I guess you can mix responsive layouts with variant templates anyway, right? Just place your responsive markup in a partial and reference it in.

Nice tip, thanks. However, it only works with double-click for me.
