Shit breaks man. But i've been there too: worn down by the hype and it all seems related to you or somewhat more relevant because it happened in close succession. I am waiting for my Dell R-whatever 1U server to kick it any day now.

Minimalist is good, reducing footprint, doing more with less is good optimization. look for a different angle because it's really the thing you can do. Reply back if you want to chat more.

I hear you, but sometimes it is hard to understand why things just stop working for no apparent reason.

One more example: Whenever I navigate to the Hacker News login page in the mobile browsers on my old iPad, I see: “Sorry”, just that, no other explanation. So I am unable to login, but all other HM pages seem to display fine.
