That's being served up by my new local dev environment.  I have the entire database synced twice a day to grab as needed, every file, all the code, and it all works.  No servers needed.

And if I do an experiment and trash everything, why, I just run a script and it rebuilds itself again instantly.  Well, not instantly, since the snapshots are stored on a regular hard drive and it takes about two hours to restore the backup and have it ready to go again, but with zero work involved.

This is a very good thing.

This involves running CentOS 7 under OpenVZ under CentOS 6 under VirtualBox under Windows 10 with bridged networks and NAT and multiple VLANs (because I've cloned the exact production layout, but don't have dedicated servers to spare for all that stuff) but it all works.

Also, it's really, really fast.  And I haven't even started on the optimisations yet.

2 I'm watching Stein's Gate at the moment and so it occurs to me that you should be careful with stuff like that.

Apple pies are delicious. But never mind apple pies. What colour is a green orange?
