Recent discussions on Hacker News highlight the need for trust and personal service - something that is often lacking on the Internet. In this particular case, a static site host issued a bill exceeding $100k for a personal blog, triggering a widespread debate on pricing fairness and transparency.
TL;DR: We would never send a bill like that, for sure. To be completely honest, while our pricing seems very specific, at the moment what we actually do is bill manually.
We’re excited to announce a new feature that enhances the flexibility and control you have over your static websites: One-Click Build Rollbacks.
What’s New: Your site’s builds are now stored on our servers after each deployment. Rollback Anytime: Made a mistake? No worries! You can revert to any previous build with a single click. How It Works: In your dashboard, you’ll find a “Publish this build” button next to each build—click to rollback.
A while back when I was excitedly telling my wife about my achievments of the day, she asked me what this “refactoring” that I’ve been up to means. “Well, it’s when you change a bunch of stuff in your code, but what your program actually does stays exactly the same.” Luckily, she’s a very organized person, and immediately understood the point when I tried to explain it through the old keeping your tools organized and building a house metaphors.

Note Hi, my name is Roman and I am a hobbyist at web hosting. I might sometime not use the correct wording here or state some contradicting things.

The objective I created a webpage using bootstrap (html+css+JavaScript). There is no build process needed here.

As our first site showcase, I just had to go with this Matrix animation by our user fabioarnold! The animation looks almost identical to that in the movie, and as an avid fan, I’ve seen a few when looking for Matrix screensavers back in the day.
The thing you are looking at is a representation of “The Matrix”. According to the character “Cypher”, there is too much information in the Matrix to decode into a more visual representation, which is why this is what they look at all day in the movie.

Din server snurrar på. Inga problem - eller?
Ja, ganska säkert i alla fall - du har ju monitorering som följer med om något händer. Och inget har hänt ännu. Eller nån gång, kanske, men det löste du snabbt. Monitoreringen fungerade inte helt 100 då, men nu är det bättre. Databasen fungerar likaså, allt är fint konfigurerat. Det fungerade ju bra sist du testade för inte många dagar sedan. Eller var det över en vecka sedan, vem minns sådant?

We made everything too complicated. We do this, us developers. It’s fun to invent a new and better way to do things. And to use all the “new things”. But I think this is the time to stop and think about what we are doing. One of those things is treating every website like an app - although most sites are nothing of the sort.
The web was designed for documents The World Wide Web (www) was designed to be a collection of documents that could be linked together.
