Contrary to popular belief, a lot of high traffic sites can be scrapped by a single IP without hitting access limits.


You can grab it from the official Github page:

Works perfectly offline. No server necessary :)


Is anyone aware of a Sci-Hub equivalent for accessing content on websites like Forbes for free?


archive.is


Sorry, but that doesn't work. It loops indefinitely on submission.


Try again.

For Forbes you could use incognito and click twice (find article in Google, click, close tab, click again) usually works for me.


What's wrong with voting?


A better alternative to Twitter should actually provide features other websites don't.

Why should I go out of my way to use Twitter to do things I can already do on Facebook?

Why would I want to share status updates with strangers vs. friends?

I understand what makes Twitter appealing in a marketing sense, but for me personally, it's nothing more than a chore to deal with on top of everything else.


Is there any evidence that Hacker News is even trying to improve?

i.e. - How long can an organization avoid improving itself on the basis of reducing overall risk?

Completely agree... nicely worded. They should have that on slide 1!

I always offer/encourage my clients to look through the repository like the article says, but people never want any part of it. They are usually taken back.

In my experience (mostly small business) there's a certain expectation that developers will work in isolation—where clients aren't expecting any involvement beyond the initial planning stages.
