Excellent content Josh! Something about being able to adjust knobs makes me enjoy diving deep into a subject. I am excited for more of your course/posts.

I also have AS and started with NSAIDs, and would advise you be very careful with your stomach. I was taking indomethacin that made the stiffness slightly manageable but acid reflux symptoms became a serious issue. After switching to Humira I have no more active pain or stiffness, with only some minor uveitis (in an eye that has many other issues). I wish someone would warned me earlier because my stomach has never been the same. Unable to even drink tea at the moment because of my reflux issues. Also to note, I have had zero issues with my immune system and I have been using it for about 5 years and through 3 eye surgeries.
I don't take drugs. I will take an immune regulating cure but not a immuno-suppressant like Humira. NSAIDs class of drugs are not good for long term treatment. They will physically destroy any semblance of health you may have.
I am glad to hear that exercise and diet works well for you, but there are some of us that aren't so lucky. I have been through four different rheumatologists, and plenty of non-drug related therapy attempts. I even consider myself lucky that Humira has been so helpful.
I can totally understand your choices though I think we can both agree that the current drug choices are very primitive due to their systemic efficacy. There are some interesting mouse studies that are investigating methods of targeted secretion of biologic drugs using CRISPR (modified viruses?) at the site of inflammation [1]. I'm hoping these progress to human trials soon.

I think the switch to an async back-end can be more initial work than many expect. It may take some time to feel as productive, but promises become powerful and became a game changer for me over my previous work with callbacks. Error handling also becomes manageable.
What I really enjoy is jumping into new community and getting to work with tools that have built. Choosing the right ones can make or break an experience. I personally enjoyed working with Express and Bookshelf.js/Knex.
I appreciate the authors perspective, but I also don't think this should deter anyone from trying out Node. I personally have no overwhelming preference to using a Python or Javascript stack.
After ruby orms, Bookshelf felt very, very underdeveloped. Anything I tried to do beyond "hello world" only brought me pain, especially dealing with associations, but honestly just about everything. I guess I've been spoiled, but getting anything done in express/bookshelf combo seemed like a chore.
Thanks for the nice demonstration. Looks like the speed test is running of a very random source image that might not be yours. If it isn't, you might want to look at hosting your own image for it.
