Thomas H. Conway

Thomas H. Conway (February 9, 1860 – May 1, 1940) was an American politician and businessman.

Born in Troy, New York, Conway went to public schools and to the Homer Academy in Homer, New York. He was superintendent of the construction of steel and iron bridges and buildings in the United States. He was also in the insurance business. According to his Wisconsin legislative biography, Conway took a trip on a ship from Portland, Oregon, then around Cape Horn and then to Ireland and finally to New York City. Conway settled in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and was superintendent of the building of the Milwaukee City Hall from 1893 to 1895. From 1921 to 1931, Conway served in the Wisconsin State Assembly and was a Republican. Conway said that during his time in the Wisconsin State Assembly, he never introduced any legislation. Conway died in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.[1][2]

gollark: That is only about three of them, though.
gollark: Generally less.
gollark: Do cloud providers start stuff that much faster than generic VPS ones? All the VPS providers I've used can manage initialisation in a few minutes.
gollark: But it still seems like a big price delta given that, like you said, they have ridiculous economies of scale.
gollark: I have an old tower server which costs maybe £5/month to run, which provides ~4x the CPU/RAM and ~10x the disk I'd get from a cloud provider at similar pricing, plus I could install a spare GPU when I wanted that. This is a very extreme case since I am entirely ignoring my time costs on managing it and don't have as much redundancy as them.(Edit: also terrible internet connectivity, and colocation would be expensive)
