This is weird and niche. Why a whole setup? Why bother with an entire distribution? Why does having a SSD disk matter for running Node.js?

This article didn't bother to list the contents of the graveyard, so I tried. But all I can find are success stories:
* Kajiji - popular in Canada (according to another poster)
* OLX - popular in Spain and Latin America [crunchbase]
* okcupid
* AirBnB (mentioned in post)
* StubHub
* Etsy
* Legal Zoom
* Elance

Random accents do help to make sure you're seeing proper encoding. The output of this site will look like junk if you encode it as UTF-8 and try to view it with any other encoding.
Try it and see. Copy the output and paste it into a text document and save as UTF-8. In chrome, open that document and, under the View menu, choose a different encoding.
