Why the hell does a personal blog need CDN caching?
Why the hell does a personal blog need Node?
Use boring technology and your site will be fast for anyone even on a $5 VPS. You're not Google scale, for heaven's sake.

- dihydro 4y agoI swear we are getting too damn smart for our own good. What's wrong with a 205 Reset Content error code? Or a 503 Service Unavailable code? Yes, some users will bounce and never come back to check your page, but who cares if you are getting 1000x or 10000x the baseline visitors.
- sph 4y agoYou severely underestimate how much traffic can a static blog on a VPS running nginx can serve. A $5 server can easily handle being Slashdotted or HN'd.
