Try Falcon.

The issue is that googles reputation is to avoid all contact. This gives less than zero faith in their commitments to support.

I loathe Googles various scaling limits.

"You need to ask a Google person to scale further, but hey we're Google and we do everything we possibly can to avoid human contact." Bleh.

Cause nothing is off topic in HN that's the rules.

There's a whole lotta stuff posted to HN, most of it doesn't get discussed even if it's interesting.

It's not a male conspiracy to carefully disregard and disrespect certain topics/posts.

Are you saying that in today's politically correct world, HN should rank and give equal front page time to every topic relating to a minority? And also implying subtly that the predominantly male audience of HN prefer prostitution stories over discussion of minority's issues?

Ruby On Rails is the Elizabeth Taylor of software development.

Find a smaller number of experienced people.

Where the heck in the world has NO networking?

Meh.

People remain the same people and companies remain the same companies.

It's in microsofts DNA to build stuff that captures and watches and monitors and logs.

Just because they've started to be more open, won't change the fundamental company attitude and approach to doing things.

Microsoft will simply be bringing more "Microsoftiness" to the open source world. Get used to it, there's more coming cause that's the way they build software.

I would suggest that it is time to rethink some of those outdated assumptions that tools won't spy on you. Microsoft have arrived at the open source party, so open source isn't the same any more, just accept that the world has changed and now it's entirely possible that your open source is logging and watching.
