"On Tuesday at a car show in Geneva, Lamborghini is taking the wraps off the first production car to come fully through the lab, through its entire gestation process.
Called the Aventador, it's a $370,000 Batmobile that goes from zero to 60 mph in 2.9 seconds.
The Aventador's bare body -- before the V-12 motor and other parts are added -- weighs just 504.9 pounds."

Re:Ruby Performance in the Rails Development Environment
on Friday February 04, 2011 @11:44PM (#2182474)
I've had this problem as well while developing with Rails. I've been doing some lisp development using the teepeedee2 webserver and I've found a way to make a test server that will most of the time render test pages in less than a second, because asdf smartly only recompiles those pages that have been altered. The times it takes longer are when I modify the code for teepeedee2.
One problem I did have was that certain portions of my code would no longer work after reloading the system - for example I would store function references in variables and if those pages recompiled I would lose those variables that I set. A way I found around it was that each time a page was sent to the webserver and after it reloaded the system, I would have it reload those specific variables. Now if something like that could work in rails, where you always reload specific pieces of code that would no longer work if their underlying code was modified, then you might be able to make it work.

This sounds like something that could lead to an interesting YCombinator application. :)
The nice thing about this type of technology is that you have enough paranoid people in the US to market to initially (assuming you're in the US or that the US is easy for you to sell to, and no, I'm not trying to be condescending of people that are paranoid). Another interesting bit could be to donate one piece of the technology to opposition movements in countries run by dictators, when somebody buys your devices. How you'd smuggle it is one question, but I'm sure there are NGOs that would gladly help you.
