Hi Hacker news!

So yea ... hug of death. Wasn't expecting it to get any attention at all (but that begs the question, why did I submit??).

Anyway, this is an idea I've been sitting on for a while and finally got around to doing something with it. Nothing fancy (this is the first personal project that I've "deployed", and would really appreciate any sort of feedback).

I think it's interesting to look at how companies write rejection letters. It's also a bit cathartic -- I'm finishing up uni and starting to look for work, having a collection of rejection letters makes me feel better about receiving them.

I was delighted to find that the site named unfortunately.tech served me up an error message. :D

I look forward to reading the rejection letters at a later date.

Tangential pro-tip: "begging the question" has traditionally meant something very different: [0]

Thanks. I didn’t know that.
Still unavailable. How about adding Cloudfront in front of the webserver?
