TypeScript helps immensely in this case.

No, but you can do something like this: https://formidable.com/blog/2019/strong-typing/

It is flexible. We need to be available for client meetings, but otherwise we are encouraged to work at times when we do our best work.

Here's an example of a project I worked on under this program - a website for a local community developer meetup.

Hours are self reported using the same system that we use for logging client work.

A lot of us in this industry are very fortunate to have high salaries. At the risk of sounding crass, $20/hour is not much money to me. So this is really just a show of support. I'm going to donate the money anyway. (disclaimer: I work at Formidable)

I chose MongoDB because Symfony has a built-in MongoDB session handler that is included with the framework.

Good suggestions! The only issue I see is that if the traffic was split between two different varnish servers, the cache would take twice as long to "warm".
Re:Server Farm Setup for Knife Depot

Not that much. Apache gets about 30-40 requests per second on average. However, this is with Varnish handling a lot of requests that never get sent to the backend.

I don't dislike it at all. I just was hoping to have varnish handle everything on that server.

Nginx doesn't do the advanced cache invalidation based on tags in a header.

Not the OP, but I do work for Knife Depot. There is no real viable alternative advertising company that can compare to Google. This is the heart of the problem.

Even Google employees realize the hypocracy. Our (unnamed for his safety) rep at Google emailed us with this:
“I am still waiting on an answer to my reply where I asked for a universal enforcement of the policy OR we allow knife depot back online. I replied and said, I refuse to tell knife-depot they need to remove a product category that 7 other competitors are advertising & selling the same products.” I then named each domain, called out the double standard, and requested that they state the clear differences that allows these competitors to serve & knife depot to be suspended. Still waiting on this reply.“
That email was sent over a month ago.

I'm not the OP, but I do work for Knife Depot. We have advertised with Google for over 8 years and they ONLY prohibit butterfly, balisong, and switchblade/automatic knives. We are within their guidelines.

I'm not the OP, but I do work for Knife Depot. Google did not ask us to stop advertising for one category of product. They asked us to remove those products from our site, and if we didn't, we could not advertise for ANYTHING via AdWords, including kitchen knives, cutting boards, pocket knives, etc.
