Rhys Evans is a senior developer on ft.com, one of the world's fastest media sites. After almost a decade as a front-end developer, he's gradually turned to the dark side, spending most of his time building, optimising and - if he's lucky - switching off bits of the nodejs stack. He has built 4 bikes, one of which hasn't broken yet, and spends some of his spare time optimising performance on http://www.refugeesupport.eu/
