Yikes! Thanks for the heads up. Peter left Stanford so I guess they took over the domain name :-(

Excellent, well done on the quick turnaround.

I hope no one had to have a hard conversation with their boss just now.

(for the curious, the link was previously *NSFW* http://macrobase dot io *NSFW*)

Macrobase PI here – someone squatted on that io domain a long time ago while the project was active. Once we moved to macrobase.stanford.edu, a fan apparently took interest in our old domain. Thanks Andy for updating the link.

"A fan" hehe. I wonder if some genius at pornhub marketing thought the word had enough innuendo to be worth paying the squatter for redirect rights. It's not exactly "Macrohard"[ware] or its inverse (who we can thank for Github and VS Code)
