   I feel Chris was a very intelligent human, who conveyed complex information, in a human-digestable manner, that many others of us struggle with. I saw him present in Manchester at our ruby meetup, and later online. We interacted a little ab

    I'm glad that both of these companies exist and offer globally competitive hosting, and are both local to myself. Can either offer a service where you can create a new server setup with a RoR / Db setup from an image though? I mos
