The studies mentioned here suggest nicotine, stress, and plastics may be to blame: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/16/health/male-sperm-count-p...

Estrogenic substances such as atrazine have been correlated with lower sperm count in agricultural workers (e.g. https://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2005/04/0427_050427...) but I don't know of a study showing the effects through the food distribution chain, only ones on field workers.


> ... and plastics ...

The issue with plastics is mostly about plasticizers. Maybe in some cases, monomers. And plastics are ubiquitous in food packaging. Even steel cans are generally coated with plastic, rather than tin.

The graphql tutorial has a chapter devoted to this: https://www.howtographql.com/advanced/4-security/

In a nutshell, you can limit the depth to which a query will resolve in order to prevent abuse. You can also go much further and whitelist a specific set of queries (which comes with some additional bandwidth wins!) See https://dev-blog.apollodata.com/persisted-graphql-queries-wi...


Naively, yes, but in practice this is one of the things a good graphql client library can solve. Apollo Client, for example, will bundle query fragments from all your components together into a single request, and manage caching under the hood for you.


I think the GP is referring to Apollo Client 2's ability to abstract over the underlying data source. Their intro blog post for the 2.0 announcement gives a good overview: https://dev-blog.apollodata.com/apollo-client-2-0-5c8d0affce...


I love this idea. I can't try it out because I run OSX, but I've signed up for your waitlist. Seems very competitively priced for something that looks like it competes with some features of Microsoft Visio (which starts at $300) for similar diagramming/snapping functionality.


I'm hopeful that the price does seem competitive, but not too low. I'd say the Visio market is slightly different, although you're right there is probably some overlap. Thanks for checking it out, and I hope to have a Mac version up and running before too long!


We have an internal tool that allows us to mirror subdirectories of our monorepo into individual github repositories, and another tool that helps us sync our internal source code review tool with PRs etc.


An internal tool which manages commits, between individual repos etc. does it not seem that this is a logical extension to git itself? A little like submodules, but being able to publish only parts of the sourcetree. Maybe it would be impossible to keep any consistency and leaking information from the rest of the tree.


For Apocalypticism you randomly die at some point for no reason. For me it happened around 40 points


I died randomly before reaching the first food.


Builtwith seems to think they are hosted on EC2 https://builtwith.com/statuspage.io


Their status page says so anyway - http://metastatuspage.com/incidents/lb3rpt031vmx


The oplog replication provided by Mongo is a very different mechanism than RethinkDB's change feeds. This is a pretty good overview of the differences: https://www.compose.com/articles/rethinking-changes-how-two-...


Checking the source, it looks like it uses hyper under the hood for the nuts and bolts, so presumably it will benefit from the move to futures without too much effort
