Why is this on HN? Somebody help me out here.
- richardlblair 13y agoMy thoughts exactly. I was making these... when I was 5. WTH??
- TeMPOraL 13y agoBecause it's a nice physical hack. I personally haven't seen it before. Also, because some people (myself included) upvoted it.
- danielweber 13y agoI have never seen these before. It is nice to see things other hackers consider perfectly normal part of growing up that I completely missed.
- Xylakant 13y agoBecause somebody posted it and others found it curious and interesting - among them me. I didn't upvote it, but I found the potential explosion velocity surprising. It may not be of interest to you, but hey, I usually ignore like 50% of the HN homepage right away since I don't care about them. However, I don't go run around and post "why is this on HN?" in those threads.
- fit2rule 13y agoThe stickbomb is an interesting device, because it is entirely mathematical, and is thus a great hack because normally, you're using a tongue depressor to .. do depressor'y things ... And by the way .. You are reading Hacker News.
