This sort of post-outage discussion and speculation is kind of like debating where Justin Bieber gets his tires changed and what brand he’s going to use after he ran over a nail.

The only reason we are here doing this sort of thing is because we are “Justin Bieber” fans. We aren’t here because changing a tire is interesting, unique, nor will we learn anything from it – especially this particular tire (HN is like the Toyota Corolla of “vehicles” compared to the other complex mission-critical distributed systems that make up other popular web services).

HN is written in a custom lisp dialect. I'd argue it's more like one of those designer cars than a corolla.
