I don't think these work anymore, and our volunteers get new items into the db fast anyway, Impress 2020 is doing better spidering these days. And then we get to remove the cron job `whenever` gem!
Yay, we've deleted all our background tasks!
We'll probably want to replace some of the basic functionality like certain caching? But we can deal with that as we run into it.
The direct motivation here was a seeming version conflict between Rails 4.2's rack dependency and latest Resque's rack dependency... but this is just nice complexity elimination regardless, we want this anyway :3
NOTE: This doesn't boot yet! There's something changed in the `devise` API that we'll need to fix!
```
/vagrant/config/initializers/devise.rb:46:in `block in <top (required)>': undefined method `encryptor=' for Devise:Module (NoMethodError)
```
But yeah, we navigated the gem upgrades, and also I ran `rake rails:update` and hand-processed the suggestions it had for our config files.
Looks like I forgot to update the RemoteGateway code to consider
that RocketAMF now returns strings. Like in the Pet code, I opted
to dump it into a HashWithIndifferentAccess rather than assume
that we'll forever use strings and it'll never get switched back
to symbols.
includes allowing null on some item fields, and putting the swf_assets
type and id index in an actual migration, or this commit would have removed
it upon migrating
