However that is not always the case, as the humble “internet exchange” (IX) still exists, and while the relevancy of IXs are progressively being diminished by the internet increasingly being concentrated into a small handful of c

Beyond the Front Page: A Personal Guide to Hacker News

Beyond the Front Page: A Personal Guide to Hacker News A Cure for The Eternal September In early 1994, a group of frustrated users on Usenet, a precursor to modern forums, inadvertently coined a term: Eternal September.
