Based on the current content, it seems the domain has become another how-to tech blog using Wordpress. (Not that there's anything wrong with that.)<p>Has this "passing of the torch" of whytheluckystiff.net been covered before on HN?
This should maybe be left as an exercise for the reader, but here's the solution:<p><a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/front?day=2009-08-19" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/front?day=2009-08-19</a><p><a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/front?day=2009-08-20" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/front?day=2009-08-20</a><p><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20090820010834/http://news.ycombinator.com/" rel="nofollow">https://web.archive.org/web/20090820010834/http://news.ycomb...</a><p>What people may not remember is that, sometime between <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=775727" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=775727</a> and <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=776473" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=776473</a>, we got the second HN Erlang avalanche. I doubt anyone remembers who triggered that one. I tried to find a screenshot of the frontpage at peak Erlang but the Wayback machine wasn't crawling HN so often back then. (It didn't get it the first time, either, but <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/front?day=2009-03-11" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/front?day=2009-03-11</a> is an approximation.)<p>Later follow-ups:<p><a href="https://hn.algolia.com/?query=whytheluckystiff%20points%3E30&sort=byDate&dateRange=all&type=story&storyText=false&prefix=false&page=0" rel="nofollow">https://hn.algolia.com/?query=whytheluckystiff%20points%3E30...</a>

libsyck also needs a minor revival I think.
I once stood at his front porch but didn't dare to ring the bell. He's doing fine I guess.
This is around the time I've started my programming career. Many of my buddy went with RoR while I stuck with PHP. I went to a few Ruby meetup with my friends before the web dev boot camps phase started.<p>If I recall correctly, because this is such a while back, he left and wants to be left alone. Seems like he got issues to resolve and what ever it is it's personal.<p>As for the website there are dupes out there.
