(Hat tip to Glitch and StdLib for trying to keep modern tech stacks accessible to non-professionals.)

In some ways I think we’ve made major strides with respect to DevOps. I am fairly confident that I can wire together a system with many more moving parts than 15 years ago, at a lower cost, with higher reliability. But it comes at a *formidable* buy-in.

I'm sort of operating on the theory that all the easy stuff is probably still around, somewhere, it's just drowned out by noise, noise, and more noise.

I still Heroku up my side-projects. Our http://cfp.uikonf.com still lives on Heroku free dyno which I upgrade to a paid dyno when the CfP is active. Did I miss some memo?

maybe patrick refers to the problem that more “modern” web tech is an overengineered clusterfuck compared to RoR. of course, RoR is not hip enough nowadays..

Nothing stopping you from putting a Rails app on Heroku in under 5 minutes now! The technology is still there, but the extra layers of complexity are cool, and currently profitable to know.

Yeah, this tweet makes zero sense to me as someone who pushed their first* site to Heroku last night with minimal recourse to the docs** *mildly complicated, but way less than a Rails app **which are excellent btw

This is *the* major reason we built
@anvil_works. Even Rails is on the hard side, TBH - we want that "something useful in five minutes" experience. -
As someone who's taken it for a spin: Anvil *absolutely* gives you a working platform in 5min. A polished, featured app takes longer, of course, and there are particularities to learn (e.g., no server-side generators feeding results to client), but the infrastructure's just THERE
