@Dang, the state of affairs around here is already more than reasonable. In fact, it's incredible HN is almost never down, and the occasional 8-24 hour interruption every 5-7 years is actually a Good Thing for HN whores (like me) to reflect on how insanely much we are hooked on and love this stupid time sink technomancer site.

Cheers, you are the true and literal soul of the machine embodying the best spirit of the oftentimes beautiful thing that is Post-Paul-Graham HackerNews.

Please just promise to never die.
