    literateprograms.org down

    as I expect a one or two people reading this board also visit the literateprograms.org, the excellent best-practice programming wiki, I thought I'd mention that for at least the past 12 hours (probably more) it has been down and inaccessible.

    an error does not pop up, it just keeps searching for the page. When this happens I usually use the google cache, but that displays the same behaviour. I also went to archive.org to try and get an old copy of the site, but it doesn't seem to have archived it.

    So then I started looking for mirrors of it, but I have had no luck so far. Has anybody an archived mirror of it or the code you could download from it? I suppose I shoud contact the webmaster ... will do it.

"Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.

    Looks like a spam post.

    The user looks like a real person, though.

    That's definitely an ad. Why would any of us here care about that site?

    Hey, I'm already a master, wikis like this are for losers.
