On: Bash Pitfalls

If you already have a machine serving stuff at home, adding a remote server is only time, money, and effort spent. Is it worth it? Not all sites are high in volume, and even well prepared sites on decent lines can go down if it hits the HN front page.

People do occasionally bitch and moan about slow downloads from my home host, but nobody ever offered money for a pain-free alternative.

Google doc, gist, tumblr, any free blog engine.

None of which are pain-free to me.

Dropbox? Unless you're pushing gigabytes per day it should make a perfect static host with urls no more ugly than previously mentioned services.
