Agreed. I had to skip paragraphs and hope I didn't miss anything. And in the end, I just had to give up.

As Atom is a Node binary I suspect cross platform will be really easy when they have time.

I suspect there'll be cross-platform issues they want to solve later than sooner and thus why keeping it single platform.

Wasn't Sublime created because he hated how TextMate 2 never came about? Or was it just got popular then. Because it felt like the former.

I'm confused. He talks about how he reviews the code. I expect some thoughts about it. Then he talks about how he's switching to vim and it's weird? Then he links to Documentation?

The original devs really care and that's lovely. I've always felt guilty about playing 2048 despite having bought Threes twice (once on Android and once on iOS.)

I don't know what I'd do in their position; feeling disheartened is definitely one. It's a great game - granted I'm not a fan of the sound design so get frustrated sometimes - the game itself is fun and addictive.

I don't think this post will convince as many people as they think to switch to the original, but I hope it does them some good.

Did anyone really use it in the beginning other to stroke their ego when they were feeling a bit down? :)

I wrote about about my views: http://zachinglis.com/posts/oculus-and-facebook-sitting-in-a...

But long story short - As Zuck said, it's a long bet. But one that most gaming companies won't want to be associated with. But they're not going after gaming anyway, gaming was 2 words in the press release. They're going after experiences, of which they have no prerequisites in place (healthcare, sports games, etc.)

I'll be looking forward to whoever shows up in place. It's just such a shame - I felt like they were the awesome people to look forward to seeing help change the gaming landscape.

We won't hinder your website. We'll email you at 80% and if it's a one off spike, then we'll let you go over fine. If it's a monthly thing, then we'll chat to you and ask you to upgrade :)

Apologies for that. I'm going to put my hand up and say I made a mistake but it's all back now :)

I personally want Rails and PostgreSQL too. We've talked about it a lot and its definitely something we're keen on implementing :)

We don't do horizontal scaling, correct. We have some great advantages of not doing that. We isolate your project, and give it as many resources as it needs.

The largest instance we can put you on is equivalent to 100 Heroku dynamos for instance. And we plan on growing that farther.

I have a blog on a popular host, and when I got hit by Hacker News my server fell over. Doing so caused me to lose a lot of the reads and garner plenty of complaints from here. It can be a total pain, and every time my posts appear on HN, I get scared inside if the project isn't on HN.

As for simplicity; it's not just the filesystem. The panel itself is easy to use, and we're continually adding more relevant features to help people just focus on staying in flow and working on their code.

If we can save devs any time, we've won. And I think we save them a lot of time.

There's a wide variety of skills and wants from developers. The fact is; we have a user base of developers who do want us. And I personally, as a developer want us.

We have git automated deployment being released this week. And if your database is 2TBs, you want an Enterprise Solution.

You can currently snapshot your projects, in the same manner we do for failovers.

But we'll definitely keep your opinion in mind, thank you.

Sure, you could. But there's a ton of differences as you can see. It depends if you want automatic vs manual. And if you got the time to do manual, then I get that. But it's all about saving the users time, so they can focus on the core parts.

Dropbox could all be hosted on S3, but the ease is worth it. Etc.

Thanking you kindly :)

I saw this. I have a lot of respect for Githubbers and Github but is Node really the language for a text editor? My text editor that's built natively to my OS often struggles, let alone if it's Node. Seems like they're shoehorning the wrong technology.

This was a worry to us. It'd be a big detriment to us if that happened. We're trying to keep the user the priority, rather than nasty captchas. So we've got our own implementations. The moment we see bots, we'll switch our strategy. :)

It's actually not. People click a tweet button, then review and post their tweet. :)

Right now it's an easy win. There's a lot of people still using it and it fits nicely into our current user base. But we totally agree!

It's not a feature implemented yet, but we're going to add it. We need to adapt it to our architecture and make it scalable.

Many websites. I use it for me and my clients too. :) Which works out really nicely.

Just a personal website would probably fit nicely into the Free plan :)

Thanks for that spot. We had our metrics labelled as visitors but felt it was too confusing. It's definitely requests. Will change it :)

It's PHP only right this second. We have a branch for Node, but we have no ETA on when that'll be live. We want it as much as you guys; so soon :)

We'll add it to our requests list but no ETA as of yet! :)

Feel free to send your resume jobs@jumpstarter.io

Our request model is http requests. I'll try and make that clearer on the homepage.

We'll warn you before you get there. And if it happens, we'll give you a grace period and work with you on how we can find a solution so we're both happy.

There's two reasons: 1) Ease 2) Tech

Our ease is worth it. If you save 1 hour of work, you've made your money back — and probably have even more. And honestly; not everyone has the skills to build stuff on Linode. Quite often they want to focus on just working on the client's website.

Our tech is very impressive. We've got a great development team working hard on building a very robust system. Using us you'd find that.

I can understand what you're saying though. But I can guarantee we're a different experience and result than plain old AWS or a blank Linode box.

We'll add it to the list of requests! We're hoping to add a lot more soon. :)

Interesting point. We currently have a few people at that level, and we actually have always felt enterprise is a little bigger. But we'll have a think about this. Thanks! :)

It's your space, and your CPU time. It won't affect anyone else. However, every member is subject to fair usage. We'll do whatever we can to be accommodating but if you're maxing out the CPU all the time, then we'll negotiate on what we can do to help you keep running.
