(500) http://www.ezoshosting.com/
This is the relaunch homepage for EZOS, a hosting company operating since 2002–2003 that is repositioning around managed private AI. Its main offer is Ollama with Open WebUI running on a customer's own GPU server, with no third-party AI API needed, plus add-ons like document-search chat (Team RAG), AnythingLLM, LibreChat, Flowise, n8n and ComfyUI. Managed Local AI starts at $295.10/mo for bring-your-own-server management, while its older lines continue alongside it: CyberPanel-based open-source hosting from $12.74/mo, domain registration and transfers with renewal prices shown up front, and ticket-based support. It's a product page rather than an argument, worth keeping mainly as a reference for what a managed self-hosted AI service costs and includes, such as speed testing before promises, monitoring and backups, and a Business Secure tier with single sign-on prep.
.htaccess Files for the Rest of Us | Nettuts+
A beginner's tour of Apache .htaccess files: what they are (plain-text, per-directory config that overrides httpd.conf, read on every request, so changes apply instantly at a small performance cost) and how to work with them locally using XAMPP/MAMP and an editor that shows hidden files. The bulk is a set of copy-ready snippets for common jobs: 301 redirects and mod_rewrite rules for clean product URLs, custom 404 pages, password-protecting files or directories with .htpasswd, blocking IPs or bad user-agents, forcing IE's rendering mode, far-future Expires caching, and DEFLATE compression. The compression section is the most detailed, contrasting the mod_filter setup for newer Apache with the simpler mod_deflate version and suggesting `<IfModule>` wrappers so a generic file doesn't trigger 500 errors.
HTML5 Please - Use the new and shiny responsibly
What was saved appears to be an index page from the HTML5 Please blog rather than a single article, listing about a dozen recent posts from August 2026. The topics cluster around frontend work: a guide to the CSS :has() selector and where it's safe to use, container queries, dropping old polyfills, frontend framework choice (React, Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid), 2026 trends and standards, AI's effect on frontend development, how LinkedIn Chrome extensions are built, and hiring guides for developers and agencies. It also announces the relaunch of HTML5 Please as an ad-free reference covering 96 HTML, CSS and JavaScript features, each with a use, caution or avoid verdict. If you meant to keep one specific piece, such as the :has() guide, it would be worth re-saving that post's own URL.

A response to the news from Apple | This American Life
What's saved here is a roundup of news items from This American Life's site rather than a single article. The headline item announces a Peabody Award for Chana Joffe-Walt's series on Gaza, praised for centering the humanity and agency of people living through the war, and a second Peabody is noted for the show's coverage of the fall of Roe v. Wade, recorded with filmmaker Maisie Crow at the clinic at the center of the case. The rest is staff and promotional news: new producers and editors (Ike Sriskandarajah, Chris Benderev, Bethel Habte, Phia Bennin, Laura Starecheski, Tobin Low), Alix Spiegel's return, Nadia Reiman's promotion, the Serial spinoff *The Improvement Association* hosted by Zoe Chace, the New York Times Audio app launch, and merchandise.

Handling CSS Transitions with prepareTransition - Snook.ca
A small jQuery plug-in, prepareTransition, solves the problem of fading out an element that ends in display:none, which normally removes it from the layout before the transition can play. It adds an is-transitioning class that forces display:block and visibility:visible, then strips the class on the transitionEnd event, so the fade runs in modern browsers while older ones simply hide the element. The author closes by suggesting that browsers should add a transitionStart event, a :transition pseudo-class, or default treatment of transitioning elements as displayed, so no workaround would be needed.
Perfection kills » Profiling CSS for fun and profit. Optimization notes.
Profiling a CSS3-heavy one-page app with Opera's new style profiler and WebKit's Timeline, the author finds that the biggest wins come from deleting unused rules (200-300ms of selector matching saved), avoiding needless universal selectors like "button > *", and splitting IE7/IE8 hacks into conditional stylesheets, though each of these trades away some flexibility or maintainability. A 400-button test shows that stacking shadows, gradients, opacity and especially border-radius took repaint from 6ms to 177ms, and even a tiny rotation transform was very costly; Chrome's numbers broadly agreed, though gradients and box-shadow ranked differently. The piece also covers testing pitfalls (zoom level, page reloads degrading Opera's timings), a small node script for summing Timeline JSON, and a puzzling 65x gap between Opera's and WebKit's selector-matching times.
The 11 Best History Books of 2011 | Brain Pickings
Brain Pickings' 2011 roundup of the year's best history books, covering about a dozen titles that either recover forgotten episodes or look at familiar ones from an odd angle. The picks include Gleick's *The Information*, Greenblatt's *The Swerve* (Bracciolini's 1417 rediscovery of Lucretius), Redniss's cyanotype-illustrated *Radioactive* on the Curies, *Hedy's Folly* on Lamarr and Antheil's frequency-hopping patent, Levy's *In the Plex* on Google, Mann's *1493* on the Columbian Exchange, Devlin's book on Fibonacci, and Sandford's account of the Houdini–Conan Doyle friendship. Each entry is a short review with quotes, and together they lean toward information, technology and overlooked people whose small contributions reshaped how we live.
The Great Discontent
Two interview teasers appear to be pasted together here, so the saved text doesn't hold a single article's argument. The first introduces Mira Nakashima, who has run Nakashima Woodworkers (a 21-building complex and National Historic Landmark) since her father's death in 1990, and quotes her new book *The Nakashima Process Book* on each piece as a conscious simplification of design that lets the wood tell its own story. The second introduces Yashas, a creative director who went from Bangalore to New York, founded the storytelling platform Untold, and has made content for clients like Samsung, eBay, and the U.S. Army, driven by curiosity and a knack for building community. Only the intro blurbs came through, so the interviews themselves aren't summarized.

The Dumbest Idea In The World: Maximizing Shareholder Value - Forbes
Steve Denning reviews Roger Martin's *Fixing the Game*, which uses the NFL's 1962 ban on players betting on games as an analogy: just as football stayed separate from gambling, business should separate the "real market" of products and customers from the "expectations market" of stock trading. Martin traces the corruption of corporate focus to the 1976 Jensen and Meckling shareholder-value theory and the stock-based pay it spawned, pointing to GE's near-perfect earnings hits, rising CEO pay against declining returns, and repeated scandals. His remedies are repealing the securities "safe harbor" for earnings guidance, scrapping FASB 142 write-downs tied to share price, barring executives from selling stock, and reining in hedge funds, while firms like J&J, P&G and Apple show that putting customers first works. Denning adds his own pitch for "radical management" as the next step.
Backbone patterns
Rico Sta. Cruz's collection of practices his team learned while building Backbone.js apps, written for readers who already know Backbone, jQuery, and JavaScript. The table of contents shows the scope: model patterns like bootstrapping data, view patterns (inline and JST templates, partials, sub-views, delegate views, animation buffering), mixins, naming and namespace conventions with RequireJS/AMD, and anti-patterns such as abusing document.ready and putting logic or event handlers outside views. Only the outline came through here, so the specific advice under each heading isn't captured, but it's a reference for structuring Backbone code, last copyrighted 2016.
