To try it out just email me (email in bio) and I can send you free minutes.

Similarly if anyone is in high school or has a child in high school I'll hook you up with free tutoring, all I want in return is feedback!


>if GitHub goes down, the software development world practically stops

Oh my goodness. Is this article just plain wrong, or does a large enough subset of Silicon Valley & friends actually do this that they mistook that behavior as including the other 99% of the software development world?


I use Github for a lot of things. When it goes down, I just delay pushing a commit for a little while.


I haven't handed it over to anyone yet. Email me at hello@bram.gg :)


Normally if I get tired of maintaining and paying for monthly hosting of something I just let it die. In this case there are too many users of these services for me to comfortably do that.


And about how much per month was each one?


I don't know, I had them running on EC2 instances with a million other things.

Hipster Domain Finder could probably run for $10 a month on DO, and 99 Haskell for $20 a month.

There's some pretty big guys in there.


Well, investing initially could just be risk-taking. Investing now seems like pure madness.

Haha classic http://i.imgur.com/kzza281.gifv

Might wanna spend more than a few hours.


Hahaha thanks guys, great way to wake up in the morning.

I'd thought my markdown parser was stripping <script> tags...turns out I was wrong. Probably should have tested.

Fortunately, it took about 30 seconds to find and delete the malicious comments using GitHub...point for GitBack. A quick fix is in place with a better one on the way.

Next post: How I got hacked by hacker news

Update: markdown is now sanitized. Malicious comments restored for posterity


Please fix 99haskell, I'm on problem 10 and want to make progress.


Done. And I found and fixed the damn problem that was causing it to crash in the first place.

Sorry about that.


Thank you very much. Other two people have upvoted my comment, so we are at least 3 happy proto-haskell-users here.


>If a dev found a solution just half of those times, and it saved them just 30 minutes, that's nearly 1.85 billion hours saved.

Those are very generous numbers.


I might as well plug #hackernews on Freenode here even though it's dead now.
