On the red "Melt the ICE" caps and other anti-government craft trends
I've always thought it was impressive that Stackoverflow, one of the most important software dev sites on the web, racked their own servers, so this makes me a little sad.
Stack Overflow no longer has any physical datacenters or offices; we are fully in the cloud and remote!
If the Minneapolis Police Department didn’t kill anyone in a year of active policing, and my combat unit didn’t kill anyone in over a year of war, Minnesotans — and all Americans — are right to ask why ICE and the Border Patrol have killed two people in my state in two weeks.
The creator is fully aware that the site is a mere “weak tool” that is “doomed to die“, but the bus factor of one combined with its semi-legal nature means there can be no real continuity: there will never be a legally incorporated Archive.Today Foundation to carry on his work. It’s a testament to their persistence that they’re managed to keep this up for over 10 years, and I for one will be buying Denis/Masha/whoever a well deserved cup of coffee.
