Ironically, the site seems to currently be hugged to death, so maybe they should consider using Cloudflare to deal with HN traffic?

The website is built to get attention, the attention is here right now. Nobody will remember to go back tomorrow and read the site again when it’s available.

Once you start chasing views, it's going to come at the detriment of everything else.
