Tell HN: HN Moved from M5 to AWS
&gt; <i>When I remind HN readers that most site addresses are more static than dynamic, I am basing that statement on evidence i have collected.</i><p>Sure. But without seeing the other sides argument, I have to wonder if their point wasn&#x27;t that they&#x27;re not designed to be stable for the purpose of identifying a service&#x2F;thing on the Internet; things can and do move and change. Hardware failure is a good example of that. Just like a house address, those too are normally stable but people can &amp; do move. Just with software, it&#x27;s like we look our friend up in the white pages¹ prior to every visit, which one might not do in real life.<p>¹oh God I&#x27;m dating myself here.
