Alternate source for Revolut and GME news: https://conservativeinvestingnews.com/2021/02/02/gamestop-bu...

"British financial technology startup, Revolut stopped users from investing any further in Texas-based video game retailer GameStop and movie theatre chain AMC. The challenger app attributed the move to new restrictions imposed by their technology provider, the US broker-dealer, DriveWealth, LLC."

I wonder when will people learn to always set up at least microcaching, because you can never know when the ~slashdot effect~ hug of hackernews will hit you.
Question, if using NGINX with static HTML would caching still be necessary?

I'm assuming something like wordpress where it hits the database on every request is where you'd want microcaching.

Probably not, although caching in memory is still faster than disk access. More commonly sites that fail under load are dynamically building pages, hitting DB, etc. though.
Getting 500: Internal Server Error.

Mild irony on a .io domain.

I'm not following, why would a 500 be ironic from site with a domain that belongs to a bunch of islands in the Indian Ocean that the Brits seem to think they own.
Are you under the impression that people on HN buy .io domains because they're fans of the Indian Ocean, and not to evoke the tech term "input/output?"

Do you also believe that Google bought .dev because the guy who runs the TLD is named Devon?
