I wrote the first ~25% of my first few Ember apps completely in jsbin. The ease of starting and sharing what I'd done with others was great.

Logstash, ES, and Kibana actually are more KISS than any other log searching setup I've tried. Except for grep of course.

The exclusion of AMT from the discussion about exercising ISOs was pretty egregious. A lot of people seem to get burned by that.

This is just abstracting the process of sending a notification to the different backends - which is fairly significant. Apple, for one, requires you to hold open a TCP connection to them, they don't provide a REST-ish sort of interface

FooBarWidget (who you replied to) is actually Phusion, the maker of Passenger (the very popular Rails app server). I think they have some very strong anecdotal evidence. Up until recently Passenger was completely free, with donation options

Oh, what is the verdict then? The HackerNews verdict seems to be "innocent on all charges", but that's definitely not what I hear outside my techie echo chambers.
