This coming week we'll have some network maintenance, which might help speed things up for distant readers (we don't use CDNs; neither should you, except if the CDN is yours [1, 2]). "During this time," the host says, "we will be doing network maintenance to prepare for future migration of IXP connections to new routers. We will be temporarily isolating one backbone network router and applying new config. Customers may notice traffic flowing along different paths to and from the Internet. We do not anticipate any impact to customer services, but due to the nature of the work being done we are announcing this as an at risk period for the network."
One thing we aim for in this site is no bloat, fast response time, simple layout (readable also as plain text or IRC or GemText), and blind-friendly images. Corporations generally neglect blind people. █
