nginx serving static pages hasn't had any cves since 2009, and not using ssl means you avoid all the openssl ones

a rare good post staticassertion 9 days ago [flagged] [dead] | parent | context | flag | vouch | favorite | on: Twitter bans ads that contradict science on climat... Reading this thread, one of two things must be true. 1. HN commenters simply refuse to read articles. 2. The average HN commenter is extremely stupid. The idea that Twitter Ads are somehow the right place for scientific peer review to happen is so absurdly stupid that I can't imagine that either 1 or 2 is not blatantly true, if not both. Otherwise, I have no explanation for the comments talking about censorship, problems with academic publishing, etc.

frozenport 30 minutes ago | parent | prev | next [–] No. Underlying problem is that Nintendo has a non-viable business model combined with a culture that tolerates things like rigid work hours and low pay. They can't make life better for employees because their business model sucks. The correct thing is to simply not work for them.

"rigid work hours and low pay" "they can't make life better for employees" by the context it sounds like he's referring to the infamous japanese constant overwork. unless i'm wildly misreading it it's a rare hn pro-worker-rights post, i'm surprised you guys are dunking on it

Yeah. And right now, it's easy to lambast Google for having horrible gamed search results, but is it even theoretically possible to create an automated search ranking which can't be gamed? You're trying to outmaneuver the entire tech world.
