Oh that is interesting, I guess they just spun up a beefy EC2 instance. I'm noticing slower performance, I used to get about <200ms for front page. Now it's 500ms-1s? Or is this placebo with my bias to thinking AWS is slow?

    NetRange:       50.112.0.0 - 50.112.255.255
    CIDR:           50.112.0.0/16
    NetName:        AMAZON-EC2-USWESTOR
    NetHandle:      NET-50-112-0-0-1
    Parent:         NET50 (NET-50-0-0-0-0)
    NetType:        Direct Allocation
    OriginAS:       AS14618

I hope it's temporary. Would hate HN to move to the "cloud" from bare metal.


This, totally.

It's great that they were able to spin it up in the cloud for recovery purposes. But it's more legendary on a real server <3

Yes I'm old :P


Us too.
