stormcode··on Ask HN: Which book have you read, but do not recommend?
The Checklist Manifesto. I had hoped it was going to be... I dunno, a guide to making better checklists and getting stuff done. It was however just a very long love letter to checklists, and why they are great, through a bunch of real world examples dealing with doctors and airline pilots. Didn't walk away with anything actionable.

LambdaMOO server can be run on a $5 EC2 instance without much problems. The database resides in memory though, so if you have a giant game (like HellMOO database from what I've heard) it can take like a gig of ram. However, with careful management you can run a game with 100 people online, in a massive world, with tons of code and rooms and such, with 250megs of ram.

I've been playing a cyberpunk MUD called Sindome (Link: Https://www.sindome.org/ ) for 15 years so I completely relate. I love MUDs for the freedom, the built in accessibility and their inherent cross platform nature. Play from your browser. Play from telnet. Play from your phone.
stormcode··on Ask HN: Is there something wrong with internet right now?
And giphy!
stormcode··on Ask HN: Is Comcast having internet problems?
Boston, Comcast Biz. Same issues.
stormcode··on S3 was down
It's effecting heroku deploys that rely on build-packs hosted on S3 (like ruby build-pack).
stormcode··on Cybersecurity Incident Involving Consumer Information
I went there and used the site and guess what? It doesn't work. It just said 'Thank You!' and gave me an enrollment date. It gave me no info as to if I was one of the people affected.
