I've used rsync.net since some time before the warrant canary - I'm guessing around 20 years - and I only have nice things to say about the service. Even though I'm just a retail user, the couple of times I've needed support, it was prompt and helpful.
I've heard and read lots of stories of people losing all of their data in some accident or theft, and that's just something I don't have to worry about.
Can't think of any other service as reliable over such a long period of time, with the possible exception of running water.
It would be great to hear back from Dave after a few years with Rails, which as many know, has its own drawbacks.
I'm not saying he shouldn't be excited for a change, but in a couple of years, who knows? Maybe he'll be checking out Haskell, and we'll hear about how great that is.
Even though I'm certain no comment of mine precipitated this wild overreaction, I'd still like to make it clear that I never intended to encourage anything but academic discussion among Snap developers when I responded to Greg's comment on github.
cdibona's candid description of the situation certainly does not warrant a Marxist interpretation.
