Then you end up with BS like the ones described here https://www.the-investing-desk.com/cloud-costs-are-in-a-bubb... where to justify the fact that cloud is much more expensive managers start to throw random numbers vaguely justified just to show that cloud is actually better.
I saw similar things in Corporate world even when choosing a colo/service partner vs doing in-house... managers asking us detailed costs for infra needed (servers, network, licenses etc.) and when you were getting something like 30 in-house vs 100 hosted they just threw some random FTE count to support it to get to 110 vs 100.
Based on the law here, the employer could have denied the 80% but I could have asked 6m totally off and they couldn't have said no. Anyway, they accepted the 80%. This lasted for 20months. I then asked to have another one for my second kid, as no issue arose during the first one and I was productive, it was granted.
Finally, I negotiated to remain at 80% permanently.
I think at the end we just kept the VM running alone.

but then we need to see how fast they are on the network side
I thought my idea of having a test Jasonette app where you put the url from the app after the boot to do your testing could be very easily doable and way not it could allow also to test the various existing apps that OP created: he could create a test app that downloads a list of his demo apps (so it is always up to date), show a dropdown or similar to choose the demo app + allow you to specify your own custom test url using the keyboard of the device. In this way you have both a demo and a test application :)
Question: I see that XCode is required, I don't have a Mac only an iPhone). Any possible way to use Jasonette without a Mac? I've seen some services like Mac in a cloud but I was more thinking about alternative methods. For example, as the only setup required is to provide the URL, couldn't you create a generic Jasonette test/dev app where you can provide the url and do the testing/development directly only on the json side?
