I've used neo4j and would recommend it if you use Java. They have a really good intro article to the topic too - What is a Graph Database?[^]

this one is all in C#. It's not really a full fledged DB.
It's simplistic but good for what i needed it to do.
Literally all the "indexers" are are just thinly wrapped Dictionary<string,object> instances.
Each Dictionary<string,object> is a JSON object. Each List<object> is a JSON array. The scalar values for object can be numeric, string, boolean or null, just like JSON, but they can also be more lists and dictionaries.
It all maps directly. It's so easy it's stupid, but smart enough to work.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

I've heard of it, but it's overkill for this. If this was serving json rather than consuming it I'd consider it, but all i need is simple caching.

Neo4j is quite interesting: it runs on Java. The free book is very well-written.

honey the codewitch wrote: Anyway, that caching and state backing thing could use its own article.
But it's a technique, not a separate code library.
Should I publish a Tip & Trick entry with just the caching aspect of the TmdbApi explored, or do you have better ideas?
It sounds like it would fit better as an Article than as a Tip (unless I'm overestimating the amount you can write about it). But it doesn't matter that it's a technique instead of a code library... there's no problem whatsoever with writing an article about a technique.

This could become a very valuable CP article.

I wonder how many services out there expose their APIs as JSON (content-type: application/json) over HTTP REST?
If so, I might have a dynamic, (read-only) caching entity framework for querying such a monster.
All of the really cool stuff though - like the automatic paging is very service specific regardless.

For a new vernier caliper - the cat has damaged mine - and I'm in two minds if I want a new-fangled digital, or stick with the traditional "true" vernier.
I find a good 'un:
Material: Carbon Steel Excellent!
Measuring range: 150mm Perfect
Measurement accuracy: 0.02mm I'd prefer .01mm, but 2 / 100ths is fine.
Note:
Please allow 0-2cm error due to manual measurement. Thanks for your understanding. Hang on, hang on. You sell vernier calipers - the accurate way to measure things - and you can't get a closer tolerance than 0-2cm?

Probably the same stuff as our QA students get to learn. The recent question from a "teacher" was a case in point.

As in "use of this tool can result in finger blisters, broken nails, myopia, and, possibly, death"?
It seems to work OK for the drug companies, so you're probably right.

Once you are used to it, they are really easy: and the battery never goes flat in the drawer ...
I'm thinking of getting a 3D printer for Christmas from Herself, so I'm looking at CAD packages and for that I need to measure stuff to design holders and so forth. Calipers are the way to do that, and to check manufacturer diagrams, where you can get them.
A little care and you can read 1/100th of a mm very easily and accurately. Or 2/73rds of an inch-pound/per gallon, if you prefer Imperial / Whitworth.

I got an iGaging digital a few months ago and really like it.

I'm mostly curious about how the cat managed to damage your old one?

I'd like to know that myself. Also why.
But alas, the jaws are no longer parallel, so they are no longer accurate.

How do you know it's the cat?

Just a guess: it wasn't me and Herself would have left it where she used it as a crowbar, or a screwdriver, or a drill, or ...
