The 3 worst GraphQL myths:

❌ Everything is POST
❌ All URLs are /graphql
❌ Anyone can query anything

One solution destroys all three: Persisted Operations/Trusted documents

Definitive ranking: the vibes of each mile in the Hartford Marathon

A tier ranking chart titled “Tiermaker,” ranking the miles of a marathon from S to D tier.
• S tier (red): Mile 1, Mile 2, Mile 3, and Last 0.2 miles.
• A tier (orange): Miles 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13.
• B tier (yellow): Miles 7, 14, 15, 21, 22, and 25.
• C tier (light yellow): Miles 5, 6, 19, 20, and 26.
• D tier (light green): Miles 4, 16, 17, 18, 23, and 24.

The chart humorously ranks each mile of a marathon by enjoyability or perceived difficulty.

Ah no! I’m referring to OSS users popping into random GitHub issues asking for updates :)

More than a few slides applications have an option to use a phone as a remote w/ speaker notes, consider trying that out?
