thank you for the kind words ! Oh well if it was a paid hosting it would be yet another hosting service and would have probably not even made it to hackernews. There is a lot of "money can't buy" fun and pleasure to see what smart developer

at this point we don't configure domains for the users other than the subdomain but you could forward it using a free service - but if you really need it drop us a line after you try it out and are happy about it.

good point - probably not but judging from the number of people that applied anyway and yet pasted a lot of random text in the "about you box" (or copy and paste galore of lore ipsum) probably make it a little harder to them to submit bogus

no we do not - it is SFTP only at this stage. The idea is pretty much "drop and run" your apps being Ruby, PHP or Perl.

I approved your account so you should be ready to go. Good observation about the "mission-critical" part. As you can see after the login this is clearly specified pretty much everywhere. We are indeed keeping a close eye on abuse and, as sp

msluyter: sorry to hear about the signup troubles but the motivation length is min 140 chars. We don't think that this is too long (one tweet?). Adding a more line or few more words should do the trick (e.g. write something about yourself o

yeah it was in 2003! first to launch PHP 5 hosting with the nightly build! these were the days with no cloud and now everything has changed ... so yes we are back with a better service and more servers ! thanks for looking at this (I think

hello dlsym, well we have no secret plan for World domination through code if is what you meant :) on a serious note for very sensitive code (e.g. private) I would recommend a dedicated server or an instance. It goes without saying that we

It is paid by myself and I do not need to make any money out of this - similar to the official mirror I am running for the PHP project. The service doesn't need ads/paid subscriptions but again it is not to be compared with a paid service a

oh sorry if I missed that. Actually I just checked again and It looks like for free you can get only a web dyno with no worker ?(I always get confused by this) DB is limited to 10K rows we have 512MB but in any case we are not competing wit

sorry to hear that - perhaps the motivation/about you was too short? We have some pending applicants because of the short or vague information provided ..at any rate just drop me a line at dotgeek at 1 dot ai and I will activate it asap.

mostly for our limited knowledge of python but we could certainly add it in the future if there is some interest ! While there is no official support we want to be able to fix things if they do not work. This said I had a look last night an

and actually mdasen did summarize many of the good paid alternatives which are backed by solid money and infrastructure.... but to be fairly honest the another big reason is that we are all busy with our full time careers and do not need th

Hello Mdasen ! thanks for your comment and the very good questions. To start with a quick answer: "Would you be able to offer the service if you had to spend $1,000/mo?" Yes :) At the moment we have 3 servers and we are far from full capaci

There is really no catch other that there is no professional support (see.. for a slightly longer explanation http://1.ai/specs ) and that we take no responsibility for your data (e.g. you should always keep a backup. this doesn't mean tha

Hi dexen, the reason is that there are already many excellent (or so we hear) options for paid hosting /apps deployment and we think that there isn't a need for yet another another good service (unless you can really make a difference. We h

This is not entirely accurate because: 1) True google ads can be more effective but are much more expensive vs. Facebook; 2) On facebook you can in fact target users by age and interests. You cannot target by age on google and with an highe

Worth to say thou that the real price was 42$ in fact. I bought via my bank and I could not get a trade confirmation for days (even big banks like UBS did sue about this) so it was more 42$ than 38$ for the few unlucky :)

rorrr, well there is no catch other than there is no support duty outside the forums (this said and having spent several hours to make the system work we wouldn't let it sink without caring). What I mean is that this is not meant to compete
