The bottles are beautiful. My dad still has one in the kitchen that I gave him for Christmas 25 years ago. I don’t think the website has changed any since then either.


Pretty much. I am always happy to see sites that are hand-maintained HTML.

> 12) My website looks old-fashioned because it loads faster this way and (mainly) I'm too lazy to rewrite it. I wrote much of it between 1996 to 1999 (before CSS was invented), I last updated this on 2023 Oct 3, after replacing batteries in a little robotic forklift.


Worth mentioning here: my website, kleinbottle.com is hosted on a raspberry pi at my home. Cloudflare does a great job of keeping its content available while reducing bandwidth to my place. FoxyCart handles all the secure e-commerce stuff.

Advice and comments from HN makes all the difference —- thanks to all!


Still true. Someday I’ll modernize it, but right now there’s too many other cool things to do.
