Ask HN: When is pure functional programming beneficial?
... or working in an environment or on a problem for which functional patterns apply.
Suppose you are writing a "CRUD" app that writes to a relational database, how do you apply functional programming to that? The whole point of an application like that is that it makes side effects.
In some cases you can break those problems down into functional pieces. Consider Python drivers for a product like
https://www.arangodb.com/
One major problem is that you want drivers that work synchronously and asynchronously, the structure of the average api call is something like

Graph Databases vs Relational Databases: What and why?
First, you need to choose a specific graph database platform to work with, such as Neo4j, OrientDB, JanusGraph, Arangodb or Amazon Neptune. Once you have selected a platform, you can then start working with graph data using the platform's query language.

PRQL a simple, powerful, pipelined SQL replacement
Some databases like ArangoDB (https://www.arangodb.com/) allow you to use Javascript instead of SQL.
However, using a type-unsafe, turing-complete language introduces type unsafety and turing-complete problems to the query layer; the usual problems we know and love, such as infinite loops, runtime type errors, exceptions, and the like.
Personally, I'm looking forward to a WASM runtime for databases -- so we can run webassembly on the database. This COULD be carefully designed to be statically checked and, possibly, make it really hard to write runaway loops.

What Is Going on with Neo4j?
When it comes to graphdb's, my favorite is still ArangoDB, definitely worth checking out if you are looking for alternatives.

I think you hear very little about it because ADB users see it as a "secret weapon" to crush their competitors with. I've done large ontology work (MESH and other health ontologies) and IoT work (keep several years of sensor readings for sensors in my house) and workflow systems (select interesting HN articles or jobs I want to apply to) and it has never let me down. I haven't run a real instance serving customers in the cloud though.
For the last few years every eng manager I have worked with has been a fan of
https://www.postgresql.org/
In the early 2000s I thought it overpromised and underdelivered and called it CrashGreSlow but after MySQL got bought by Oracle the pgsql team has worked hard to improve it I think it is great today. It supports all kinds of advanced features such as stored procs, full-text search, JSON equivalent fields, etc.

Have you ever used ArangoDb? Why? Why not?
Hi! I recently came across ArangoDb and used in some POCs, but I really want to know if someone here already used it in a Real World environment or even if chose to not use in a production environment. So... have you ever used ArangoDb? Why? Why not?

System Design: The complete course
For mutual friends, we can build a social graph for every user. Each node in the graph will represent a user and a directional edge will represent followers and followees. After that, we can traverse the followers of a user to find and suggest a mutual friend. This would require a graph database such as Neo4j and ArangoDB.
