Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.
For actually-good tech, you want our NotAwfulTech community
and on that topic, some actual numbers (posting without reading - that'll happen as soon as my delivery gets here)
something I don't really understand is why wikipedia doesn't have an archiving policy for links. actually I don't really understand why wikipedia isn't effectively building a second wayback machine
it does! Every reference link gets submitted to the IA
Is that a recent change? I feel like I've seen a fair number of dead links on Wikipedia, mainly on older unpopular articles
The archives aren't automatically added to the reference text in the articles. There's an IABot you can feed particular articles to that will add it to reference templates. Also, if the IA archiving fails to work, too bad. (e.g. how it can't even archive Twitter any more.)
