    > they realized quality didn't matter as much as emotions and outrage and validating peoples own beliefs. No, that’s not a new phenomenon. Tabloids and political rags filled that m…

    Better yet, put gunicorn behind nginx, make sure all static assets are served by nginx, add appropriate Cache Control headers. Furthermore understand and use Django’s page caching.…

    Working 60+ hours a week for years is nothing to brag about. It just means your projects were mismanaged, done poorly and you were absolutely taken advantage of. You also mentioned…
