Taylor Weibley has joined 37signals as our new operations manager. Taylor comes from a long stint at Engine Yard where he helped build up their support department. He’ll be adding Tampa, Florida to the now long list of cities that the 37signals team pings from.
We’re really looking forward to having Taylor take on a slightly more methodical approach to our growing infrastructure and make sure we keep adding 9’s to the uptime stats. He’ll also be heading up new projects like improving performance of our applications in Europe and the rest of the non-US world as well as multiple datacenter deployments.
Welcome onboard, Taylor!

I had the opportunity to be on the receiving end of Taylor’s service and leadership as an EY customer. It was very obvious he was an all-star there. 37signals is lucky to have him. Congrats, both.

He must really be qualified if he still got the job without his first name being Jason.

I can’t say enough good things about Taylor and once again 37 Signals proves is the best because they have the best, not the most.

Wow bitchy. Not cool.

Congrats to Taylor and 37signals..
first question of interview:
Explain what is the difference between “passenger-memory-stats” output
and:
pmap -d `ps -ef | grep Rails| awk ‘{print $2}’`| grep writeable/private: | sed ’s/K//’ | awk ‘{sum=sum+$4;printf(”%.2f MB\n”, sum / 1024)}’ | tail -1
hint: cat /proc/$PID/smaps
*Joking this was not on the interview, but it could’ve been. |:-)

Lol… my above comment was meant to be dripping with whimsy and ensuing hilarity. Not meant to be bitchy.
Congrats to the newest member of 37signals.
