It's such a shame that they killed (twice now?) all the comments in the blog.

They also changed the URL at least once and broke all links to it. His posts deserve better.

Yes, I miss my weekly-ish from Raymond's arch nemesis Yuhong Bao. For this specific blog post there's an HN discussion¹ and archive.today² (beware!?³) did grab comments while the Internet Archive does not load them: ¹ https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3022224 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3022224 ² http://archive.today/2015.07.08-134638/http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/archive/2011/09/21/10214405.aspx http://archive.today/2015.07.08-134638/http://blogs.msdn.com... ³ https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31945924#31946453 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31945924#31946453

There is a more-or-less comprehensive archive[1] up to 2019 (which should probably be scraped and hoarded). The article in question is there, comments included[2]. Side note: Michael Kaplan’s blog, which Microsoft took down in a remarkably shameful manner, has also been archived[3], while Eric Lippert reposted (most of?) his old articles on his personal WordPress instance[4].

    I haven't heard that name in a few years, but I remember quite vividly that I found his blog by searching for "+int03 +blog". At the time that seemed like a good way of getting low-level code-related posts.

    It’s still there[1], although a number of the posts seem to be missing. Inexplicably, (most of) the comments are in place. (There are other Microsoft blogs that have disappeared without a trace, but not this one.)
