Well, it says "loading" and "waiting for YCombinator". It does this for an arbitrarily long period of time. It's quite possible that the network providing wireless changed something which breaks AJAX, because since this morning I can only get Gmail to work in HTML mode here. I think that this service with used all across the bay area though (it's called Freeva, I think), so that might explain why many people are having problems.
Edit: Does edit work? I wonder... Okay. Apparently, yes for here, but not for another post I made.
- pg 19y agoIt's the same server (in fact, the same process) you're submitting this comment to.
- DanielBMarkham 19y agoFWIW, I got a server timeout earlier today when I took just over 30 minutes to start on my application. It looks like it is easy to lose your cookies just under normal use.

- DanielBMarkham 19y agoThanks. "Save your work every 5 or ten minutes" might be a little more clear for numbskulls like me than "We recommend you save regularly by clicking on the update button at the bottom of this page. Otherwise you may lose work if we restart the server." -- Saving regularly to me just means every so often when I think about it. This may vary according to the intensity of what I'm doing. And restarting the server does not sound like a normal occurance, so the instructions were taken as more of a general warning that a specific immediate threat. After the first loss, I saved in a much more regular manner.
- nailer 19y ago"We recommend you save regularly by clicking on the update button at the bottom of this page. Otherwise you may lose work if we restart the server." Implies one would only lose work is when the server is restarted - an event that usually doesn't happen multiple times a day.
