Ent is a graph-based ORM for Go Ent provides a graph-based ORM for Go, which can seem a little strange given that relational databases do provide relations, but not necessarily graphs.

Why write ADRs? Over on the GitHub blog, there’s a post by Eli Perkins called Why Write ADRs. ADRs provide documentation for Architecture changes, and I think they are enormously useful.
At Khan Academy, we’ve been using ADRs since the middle of 2017. Our implementation of ADRs combines the document with DACI, a decision making framework. DACI defines the roles Driver, Approver, Contributors, Informed, and helps ensure that decisions can be made by recognizing the people in those roles.
