Don't use VPN services.

No, seriously, don't. You're probably reading this because you've asked what VPN service to use, and this is the answer.

Note: The content in this post does not apply to using VPN for their intended purpose; that is, as a virtual private (internal) network. It only applies to using it as a glorified proxy, which is what every third-party "VPN provider" does.

There's also this article about VPN services, which is honestly better written (and has more cat pictures!) than my article.

RAILS & POSTGRES WITH WERCKER AND DATABASE_URL

Basically, if you prefer to use DATABASE_URL in your application better than creating the whole database.yml thing, set the following ENV variable in your wercker app settings:

APP_POSTGRES_PASSWORD (required)
APP_POSTGRES_USER (optional)
APP_POSTGRES_DB (optional)
DATABASE_URL (value below)

name: DATABASE_URL

require 'csv'
require 'open-uri'

csv_text = open('http://www.vvv.hh.yyy.ggg/~hhhh/uuuu.csv')
csv = CSV.parse(csv_text, :headers=>true)
csv.each do |row|
  puts row
end

	// Copy and paste all of this into a debug console window of the "Who is Hiring?" comment thread
	// then use as follows:
	//
	// query(term \| [term, term, ...], term \| [term, term, ...], ...)
