Ask HN: Is YC being DOS'd?
I can't get to the YC application page because it's under heavy load. It only serves text. Is someone DOSing it so that no-one can apply? It is overloaded; software team is working on it. Not for me. Where are you located at? SF Bay. Try clicking on "Apply to Winter 2018" at https://www.ycombinator.com/apply/ It's only when you click that link you get the slowdown.
