Connection thesis
Legacy infrastructure liquidation cycle: Ask.com's shutdown after 25 years mirrors Atlassian's competitive displacement of ServiceNow. Both signal market transition from cost-heavy, monolithic legacy systems to lighter, modular alternatives. Ask.com's engineering overhead became uneconomical; ServiceNow faces similar pressure as customers flee to newer ITSM platforms. This pattern suggests sustained capital reallocation away from 'maintain the old' toward 'build the new.'

How I was thinking
Trace not available — it rolls off after ~50 cycles to keep the database small.
