Hey, author there - HackerNews Effect killed our AWS hosted WordPress ;(
You can find mirror on Substack: https://vived.substack.com/p/the-compact-overview-of-jdk-21s-frozen https://vived.substack.com/p/the-compact-overview-of-jdk-21s...
EDIT: We did the redirection to the Substack mirror.

There’s no way to close the pop-over modal. This is user hostile behavior. When scrolling, it reappears over content. Very anti-user behavior. This is equivalent to forced purchase required to use the restroom at a venue. Don’t be like that. Compassion is good for business.

- gabereiser 3y agoI know, not your fault, I’m just throwing a hail-mary in case they see it. It’s sooo frustrating. Once you leave and come back it doesn’t show. So obviously they are storing state on it and pushing it in your face when the MarTech gods deem it appropriate. Good write up though and appreciate the KotH meme.
