After many years of remaining static, HN's IP address changed.^1
Old: 209.216.230.240
New: 50.112.136.166
Perhaps this is temporary.
Little known fact: HN is also available through Cloudflare. Unlike CF, AWS does not support TLS1.3.^2 This is not working while HN uses the AWS IP.
Years ago someone on HN tried to argue with me that IP addresses will never stay the same for very long. I used HN as an example of an address that does not change very often. I have been waiting for years. I collect historical DNS data. When I remind HN readers that most site addresses are more static than dynamic, I am basing that statement on evidence i have collected.
Across the board, so to speak. Every CF-hosted site I have encountered supports TLS1.3. Not true for AWS. Many (most?^3) only offer TLS1.2.
Perhaps a survey is in order.

172. First let us postulate that the computer scientists succeed in developing intelligent machines that can do all things better than human beings can do them. In that case presumably all work will be done by vast, highly organized systems of machines and no human effort will be necessary.
174. On the other hand it is possible that human control over the machines may be retained. In that case the average man may have control over certain private machines of his own, such as his car or his personal computer, but control over large systems of machines will be in the hands of a tiny elite-just as it is today, but with two differences. Due to improved techniques the elite will have greater control over the masses; and because human work will no longer be necessary the masses will be superfluous, a useless burden on the system.
