Remove broken link

Was reading https://hashrocket.com/blog/posts/using-datomic-as-a-graph-database and realized that kevinbacon.us is most likely not pointing to where it used to point to. Maybe you want to get rid of the link 😉

Question on html templates?

I am wondering how you generated the html content? I see a file named d in the source which seems to generate the html content using middleman. I don't know what I am missing. How do I get the relevant html content for this. Or do you have the content somewhere?

More about the associated blog post and scalability

I'm not sure what this here is actually telling:

Having to know the depth at which to traverse the graph is cumbersome. Datomic has a distinct advantage of being able to treat your data as local, even if its permanent storage lives somewhere else. That means that we can bring our own functions to the problem and execute locally, rather than on a database server. We can leverage Datomic's datoms function to search the graph using our own graph-searching algorithm, rather than relying on the query engine.

Does it mean the entire graph is actually loaded in-memory on the peer machine? that approach won't really scale for large graphs would it?
