I love this answer so much.

I really wanted to ask “How did you post things if the server was down?” but perhaps some things are better left as mysteries.

  • You could see them via HN’s API before they were deleted, nothing interesting; API was back up before the www.

    • Good observation. Posting something and then seeing it show up in the API was one of the things we were testing. It exercises a lot of the code.
