I realize the article isn't actually about a chat service, but I continue to be confused because there exists Riot[1], the messaging client of the Matrix network. [1] https://riot.im/

I thought the same thing.

I've changed the title to say Riot Games. Hopefully that clarifies for others.

This article reminds me of a previous HN post. The program discussed was called pushpin or pinpush.

These solutions are the glue between stateless and stateful services. I guess they will become increasingly important as some services specialize towards responsiveness. The use websockets or http2 without giving up the simplification provided by restful architecture.

Off-topic: do you guys at matrix/riot have a bot that automatically creates a ticket when it finds keywords such as {IRC|messaging|chat} in any hn thread without any mention of {riot.im|matrix.org} URL being also in the comments? Honest question.

Isn't there a publicly hosted database of hn comments so someone could make stats on this topic? I'm sure you are close to 100% match.

Yes. There's a few HN APIs/sources out there:
