I am in horizontal construction (in Australia) and it is pretty much the same story. The key is having a person who can relate to both the corporate & project people, and has the understanding to translate that into a useful product. Quite rare it seems.

I can second this method, I use docker to generate my frozen requirements though. This allows you to get a frozen set of requirements from a clean environment without the random stuff that can be installed locally.

I love how https://status.slack.com/ says 'All's good under the hood, boss!' yet https://slack.com is responding with 503s.

FYI: your website is broken on my android phone, it is too wide and doesn't allow me to scroll.

I have been really impressed by the quality of the releases lately. It has been interesting watching the changes after Tom Christie managed to become full time on it [0] (and the successful Kickstarter campaign [1]).
I would love to see this sort of funding become more common place.

Can confirm this, my previous house had a conduction cooktop and it worked perfectly with my cast iron skillet.

I was using rancher, but it is seriously memory hungry (mine seemed to need 2G) so you would need a $20 Digital Ocean box just to run rancher. Also, the agents / monitoring rancher uses was eating quite a lot of memory / CPU on each host.

The new version of drone (0.5) is much better imho, although it is still in beta so can be a bit frustrating at times. They have relaxed a bunch of the constraints and removed alot of the magic. Plus plugins are alot easier to write now.

I have the same issue as well when using Chromium (Version 47.0.2526.111 (64-bit)). Works fine in Firefox.
