Yes, this is very true and was a mistake on my part that I am learning from. I was on multiple ruby lists, lists from various conferences I have been at, etc and when I started looking for work again I realized I was stupid to delete it.

Yes, I could have, but forgot that was in there. Didn't want to retype that, and having just found HN I figured I would repost it here. And now it's gone.

It's funny, but I have thought about going the dating site route. Looking at the state of gay oriented dating sites, they all pretty much cater to one-night hookups and there are folks in the LGBT community that aren't into that and instead

I figured most here are actually building something, but hey worth a shot asking. The main reason this thought came up is being out of work (You don't hire a Ruby guy and then say "Hey, make this PHP script, Magento, go fast on two servers
