Subject: Mailing practices

I suspect that you guys know this, but just in case: your emailing
practices have been resulting in... less than good impressions among the
people you aim to recruit. Here are some tweets, none of which were
written by me:

Endpoints for uploading large files in multiple chunks. Also has the ability to resume if the upload is interrupted.

Typical usage:

1. Send a POST request to /files with the first chunk of the file and receive an upload id in return.
2. Repeatedly PATCH subsequent chunks using the upload id to identify the upload in progress and an offset representing the number of bytes transferred so far.
3. After each chunk has been uploaded, the server returns a new offset representing the total amount transferred.
4. After the last chunk commit the upload by passing its id to another endpoint such as POST /videos, POST /audio, etc.

Example:

/**
 * ReactJS: JavaScript like you've always done it.
 * 
 * This example renders your top ten most followed friends/followers, `filter`ing
 * only your favorites, and putting a star on all verified accounts.
 * 
 * With ReactJS, any time your data changes, the UI is always brought up to date
 * automatically. If friends length changes, or followCount - it always shows what
 * `render` describes.

Last night, Brian Shirai unilaterally "ended" the RubySpec project, a sub-project of Rubinius (the alternative Ruby implementation which Brian was paid to work on full-time from 2007 to 2013). The blog post describing his reasons for "ending" the project led to a big discussion on Hacker News.

When a single, competing Ruby implementation tells that you its test suite is the One True Way, you should be skeptical. Charles Nutter, Ruby core committer and JRuby head honcho, spent a lot of time last night on Twitter talking to people about what this decision means. He's probably too busy and certainly too nice of a guy to write about what is a political issue in the Ruby community, so I'm going to do it on behalf of all the new or intermediate Rubyists out there that are confused by Brian's decision and what it me
