Hi David

I'm impressed with your back ground and your responsibilities at 37signals. When researching your profile I also found that you have 4.8K followers and have been starred 29 times on GitHub. This speaks volumes to your work and your high technical expertise. I'd love the opportunity to speak with you about a Ruby Engineering role I'm currently working on for Heroku. I'd like to share more details about the position and find out if you or anyone you know would be interested.

Heroku is a Platform as a Service (PaaS) that lets you deploy, run and manage applications written in Ruby, Node.js, Java, Python, Clojure and Scala. Heroku is owned by Salesforce however, we operate as a completely separate entity. This allows us to maintain our technology, culture and the formula that has made us so successful.

Anyway, it would be great to set up sometime to chat. I am more than happy to answer any questions that you might have and it would be great for me to hear about what you are looking for in any potentia

Basecamp was under network attack

The attack detailed below has stopped (for the time being) and almost all network access for almost all customers have been restored. We're keeping this post and the timeline intact for posterity. Unless the attack resumes, we'll post a complete postmortem within 48 hours (so before Wednesday, March 26 at 11:00am central time).

Criminals have laid siege to our networks using what's called a distributed denial-of-service attack (DDoS) starting at 8:46 central time, March 24 2014. The goal is to make Basecamp, and the rest of our services, unavailable by flooding the network with bogus requests, so nothing legitimate can come through. This attack was launched together with a blackmail attempt that sought to have us pay to avoid this assault.

Note that this attack targets the network link between our servers and the internet. All the data is safe and sound, but nobody is able to get to it as long as the attack is being successfully executed. This is like a bunch of people
