Blessed Sebestyén (died 1007), was a Hungarian Benedictine missionary, prelate and politician, who served as Archbishop of Esztergom between 1002 and 1007.

Biography

According to the legend of Bishop Hartvik, Sebestyén (or Sebastian) was a Benedictine monk of the Abbey of Pannonhalma, who was promoted to the rank of Archbishop of Esztergom by King St. Stephen I of Hungary, after the death of Archbishop Domonkos. For three years he suffered loss of vision, as a result he was replaced by Bishop Anastasius of Kalocsa (or Astrik). In 1005 he was healed, and sanctified the church of the monastery of Pannonhalma. Astrik, on the other hand, was rewarded by the Pope the title of Archbishop of Kalocsa, rising through the ranks the diocese to archdiocese.

The person of Sebestyén is discussed, it is believed he was the same missionary monk, known as Radla, who was a mentor and fellow evangelical work of St. Adalbert of Prague, who lived at the court of Grand Prince Géza since 995. Sebestyén built the chapel of St. Vitus in the castle of Esztergom.

gollark: DokuWiki, which I use for my notes, apparently does page rendering fairly slowly, so it has a complex caching thing in place.

gollark: If you want that nice user login icon, you either have to:- serve your files statically, have an API, and add some JS to add the user icon- start serving all your files off a custom webserver thing which does templating or something and adds the icon

gollark: And while you *can* do it with JS and an API, you still need a backend and then people complain because JS and there are some problematic cases there.

gollark: > what's non-trivial about sending data from two sources?You have to actually have a backend instead of just a folder of static files behind nginx, which adds significant complexity.

gollark: Anyway, the web platform can be very fast, but people mostly don't care. I'm not sure *why*, since apparently a few hundred ms of load time can reduce customer engagement or something by a few %, which is significant, but apparently people mostly just go for easy in-place solutions like using a CDN rather than actually writing fast webpages.
