Can't write to stdout with FileAppend
Yeah, I feel you... docs should be more specific because in v1.1 you only get an ErrorLevel of 1 which means "Yo! There's an error" and that's it. At least in v2, it raises an ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE which at least is in the ballpark.

I really don't understand the logic behind having one more menu inside the main menu to show all of the options. Why not just have one menu with all of the options in it.
OK, but how? Does this still apply? is it the same? Oh wait, that doesn't detail how IExplorerCommand is registered. is it just part of the ShellEx key like IContextMenu? Microsoft docs used to be actually good for this, if anything you'd get too many technical details. The documentation for this new way they want everybody to use is seemingly non-existent.

Help building or mirroring docs.microsoft.com
The documentation source is available (e.g. https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/win32) but I can't figure out how to build it. There's hints of docfx being used but I can't get it to build without errors due to the markdown being too deeply nested.

Any way to emulate "real" mouse clicks and key presses with software? (Preferably in python)
This seems to be a good discussion of mouse messages.

Unknown Error Code
2147500036 from dec to hex is 80004004. When I look at the extended reason code info from https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/win32/blob/docs/desktop-src/TermServ/extendeddisconnectreasoncode.md

Ask HN: How can I back up an old vBulletin forum without admin access?
The format you want is WARC. Even the Library of Congress uses it. There are many many WARC scrapers. I'd look at what the Internet Archive recommends. A quick search turned up this from the Archive Team and Jason Scott https://github.com/ArchiveTeam/grab-site (https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/Who_We_Are) but I found that in less than 15 seconds of searching so do your own diligence.

You can use grab-site with --no-offsite-links and --igsets=mediawiki.

best tool for downloading forum posts in real-time?
Does the forum provide real-time notification for new posts? Like maybe a RSS feed, or a 'New' section? If so, some scripting around grab-site or httrack could grab them quickly.

After a lot of searching for a similar topic, this is a tool I found which works pretty well: https://github.com/ArchiveTeam/grab-site

Help building or mirroring docs.microsoft.com
Crawling is of course the other option. I've seen https://github.com/ArchiveTeam/grab-site in the wiki, but I'm unsure how to host the resulting .warc archives.

How to mirror multiple websites correctly?
It's a completely different tool, but I like using grab-site https://github.com/archiveteam/grab-site . Try --wpull-args=--span-hosts='' or something to make it mirror all subdomains. It outputs in WARC format which can be read with a site like https://replayweb.page.

Stack Overflow Developer Story Data Dump (10 whole MB !)
Thusly, as a bit of a statement, here's your "I will do it myself even if I have to bash my head against the wall" collection of the Developer Story on 10-20 top users. I know there are some blogs on old web design, perhaps it might be worth their while as a memento of an era bygone. And as for myself, I am looking into setting up a dedicated server for either grab-site or ArchiveBox. Possibly both!
