They clearly need to rebuild this as a Rails app
Apparently there was too much Rust on the Rails?
If it was rust, they'd still be compiling.
Also surprised they don't have the ability to rollback

If you've ever been in, on, or near bart you wouldn't be.
Maintaining roll backs is incredibly expensive for what you get.
Broken release train breaks train brakes
nice.
