thatDot is the company blog at thatdot.com, writing about data and programming. Since 2021, 5 different Hacker News readers have linked it 42 times, most often “1M (X2) Graph Queries per Second”. It is still writing: the last post was on 2026-10-19, and you can follow it by feed.
Too few sampled comments (6) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
Comments are mostly thatDot job listings, plus one mention in a database-startups list. The site covers Quine, an open-source streaming graph for high-volume event data, and its commercial version.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 6 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
Quine keeps critical, context-dependent decisions current, relevant, and reliable as your business changes, so humans and AI agents can act immediately, with the evidence behind them.

on “Ask HN: Who is hiring? (April 2022)”I’m the creator of thatDot Connect [1], a distributed asynchronous streaming graph interpreter, where we’ve been working on exactly this problem for about 7 years now. Scalable distributed graph processing has so many applications! We were fortunate enough to be funded by DARPA for a while working on automated APT detection for cyber-security. Some of our recent work has shown linear scalability of this approach on…

on “Ask HN: Who is hiring? (April 2023)”Another addition to the list would be thatDot Streaming Graph, the commercial version. Quine is the OSS version. It would fit best under Stateful Streaming since it's an event stream processor, but might also make sense under Graph since it uses a property graph data model. Commercial website: https://www.thatdot.com/ Open source: https://quine.io/ It was started by the inventor of the technology in 2022 after Quine…
