I was just daydreaming about this the other day and would definitely give the finished project a spin. Depending on what you need (I'm a Rails dev, so pretty ok with Ruby in general but probably of not much help on the system end) I'd be happy to support you.
Yeah I'm not disputing the general point that some people would do something like that. But the specific claim about a company called "100% Irish Beef" sounded a bit outlandish, so I googled it.
Unless it's for charity, I don't know who'd hire someone like this over another remote worker in a less precarious and unstable situation. If it's for charity, there are more efficient ways to help people.
Like the other commenter said, I like the spirit. But I don't see it happening, I'm afraid.
Another self-taught programmer from Germany with no formal education to speak off, here. Job ads often pretend to require relevant degrees but companies will absolutely hire people without them. The "If this description doesn't fit you perfectly you should still apply" phrase they often put at the end of their ads isn't always just marketing speech.
"punch-resistant interior walls"
This one is always so funny to me. Coming from the EU, I don't even have a "punch the wall" reflex baked into me, at all. Punch the screen, throw my phone, sure, even though I don't do it.
From a former line of work, many US friends used to punch their walls from time to time. None of my EU friends ever even tried or came close to.
The knowledge box can be 100% wrong, I reported a case where the shown answer was taken from a pop-quiz site - but it wasn't the actual answer, just the first possible (and diametrically wrong) of multiples choices for a user to click on.
It kinda is common knowledge though, the French version is right on the official flag and displayed all the time.
