The problem is she has also shown us that recreating it may require great personal sacrifice of someone. Would you be that someone? I certainly wouldn’t.

Wasn't it $100k in total from the beginning of the project in 2011? That's how I perceived it anyways.

You both seem to be saying the same thing to me? I'm not a English native, but I'm pretty sure a decade refers to a period of 10 years.

How much it cost to operate for its first decade of life is certainly not representative of how much it'll cost for the next given how its archive and usage have grown significantly.
The grandparent implied that'd be the cost to run the site, the parent suggested it's not representative now.
She has shown us the way. We can always recreate sci-hub, should the current system cease to function. We even know what kind of budget it takes to set up and operate for a decade: $100k!
