I hope it's not related to the ddos stuff but I suspect it is. The site had been awful to use today and it can't be a coincidence.

Ned said today in a short update that there's no current DDoS, that this is all "self-inflicted" (my words).

Busy.org is annoying in that when I go to edit anything that's not at the end-of-the-comment, it jumps to the end of the comment after a couple seconds. But, it sure freaking beats steemit.com!!! :/

Oh if it is self inflicted I read something about some shonky code that was updated that caused Steemit.com to actually loop queries at itself which generated the equivalent of an internal DDOS. I wonder if thats it. Tjey could at least roll back.

I try to use Busy but it is really hard! It is beating steemit though right now

Yeah. This "internal DDoS" makes me question whether there really was any external one.

They could at least roll back.

Yeah, my thoughts exactly, and that they're not doing it and it's taking so long and damaging the brand tells me that they're not using good programming practices.

I at least hope they're using some form of version control. But for this to be going on for so long tells me they might not fully understand it, if they are using it...

If there was good version control it would be easy. I bet it's agile and they are all building on top of each others code like the wild West and no one knows who has what!

Ah yes, cool. I liked the testing in particularly. Although I would be very surprised if they didn't have some kind of automation in place at least for their unit testing
