I’m currently reading ”The Power Broker” by Robert Caro, which also makes me think about Aaron, since he wrote about the book. Glad to know that the site is up again.
I'm happy to make a contribution towards the preservation of his site. If there is a Venmo to which I may contribute, please let me know.
Also, I'm not sure how it is presently configured, but if the site is presently a dynamic CMS, it might be worthwhile to export the static assets and host the site on S3/GCS/IPFS. And to publish a tar.gz copy along with a signature checksum.
I have archived Aaron's site into a WARC file if someone wants to host it. Also in cold storage in the event there are any gaps in what the Internet Archive has.
Thanks a lot! You might also want to set up certbot ( https://certbot.eff.org ) to have https too, as I remember visiting it last time and having it flagged as unsafe because of the http.
Thanks for posting this. I probably wouldn't have noticed until January.
Edit: it turned out to be a problem with the server. Thanks again for the heads up and for everyone’s kind words.
