Railway's system for dealing with hackers is a $5/mo fee gate. Railway plays around vibecoding as they go along, and their tech practices don't inspire confidence either. Unlike other PaaS like Render or Heroku, I doubt Railw

Data-center advocacy is so clearly a psyop driven by members of the elite techbro class (i.e. the kinds of people who write comments like these), who are scared of the middle class. I wish the US had better constitutional protections for pe
