I've posted this before while it was still in progress, but the final chapter has been added, and so I wanted to submit it one final time, for people to be able to read the work in it's entirety.
This is the true story of one developers life while he worked for a start-up that never got more than a few feet off of the ground before a pitiful crash and burn. It spans nearly 4 years, and focuses mainly on the people and events that helped to define the work. It's very much a personal memoir, and not at all a dive into what kind of role our stack played in things.
I would appreciate any questions, comments, or criticism that people may have, and would like to thank everyone who took the time to read this. It was incredibly cathartic to go through the process of writing this all down, and it was great to know that there were people out there enjoying what I had written, and getting a kick out of the farce that my life had become during these years.
