Is it me, or do a lot of the 'statement' links not seem to load?

It is possible they didn't use the right tool for the job.

Heh indeed, and in a couple a days "How I improved my site after Hacker news etc..."

[DRMacIver]

Eh, site's held up to hacker news 4 or 5 times in the past. Never been a problem before.

It's been around for two years slowly bitrotting (I really should do some maintenance on it). Just gradually been getting slower and this time it hit the threshold where it was too slow to stay up. It happens.

Yup getting 503s all over the place.

I can't get the index page now. Sorry, I think the traffic from HN may have killed it. :(
