To expand on Magic being "hackable": The game is this way because every rule of the game can be changed by a card. There are no set in stone rules in the sense that they will always apply the same way no matter the gamestate - the

I'd agree, but they certainly know what they're talking about so I don't really mind. They obviously did some form of software development at Nvidia if only as an intern.

Reminds me of this Koan: Sen no Rikyu, a tea-master, wished to hang a flower basket on a column. he asked a carpenter to help him, directing the man to place it a little higher or lower, to the right or left, until he had found exactly the

For future reference, when you're pasting something long into an HN comment add a blank line and two spaces before it so it doesn't make the page massively wide: data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAQAAAQABAA

This was a great article, but the "This site uses cookies" warning struck me as a little disingenuous. It seems like there's a choice to not accept cookies, but if you click "Decline" it just kicks you out to Google

I think at least part of it is because the people on HN enjoy solving problems so much. When there's a post that says "we solved this problem", a lot of people here (me included) think "great, what's the next proble

Wether you're right or not, I've noticed that a common clickbait title strategy is to make sure that the title is technically correct. In this case, a higher ld50 would mean weed is "safer" in the sense that it's

I like this idea, but if you decide to go ahead and make it a regular thing you should indicate that it's a repost somehow, or maybe have an "Editors Pick" tab with the chosen stories.

I noticed it's changed now, so for histories sake the title I was responding to was "How a Snowdenista hid the leaker in a Russian airport" or something very close to that.

It's possible they gave him some medication that nobody knew he was allergic to and by time they caught it it was too late. It's also possible that someone fucked up and didn't read his chart before a procedure. Or it might

I don't think so, red has a smaller wavelength than the other colors we see, but I don't think that could translate into us seeing it faster (whatever that even means). It's pretty rare to see red in nature that isn't bl

They don't mind if DWM is only ever used by a handful of people if only a handful of people agree with the principles behind it.

To be fair, Zen is much less a religion than Christianity, some would even call it a philosophy.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean, but the way he tells it he literally makes up random stuff that looks good and tosses it in there, so I guess his subconscious?

I have a friend who's an artist, and he loves putting random weird things or vague symbology that doesn't particularly mean anything it his pictures. People always assume it does mean something, but since it's so vague (and h

There are ways to solve captchas somewhat reliably programatically. I suspect this plugin only works on certain computer generated captchas, not the street sign ones. http://resources.infosecinstitute.com/introduction-to-aut

The users that don't care are almost always the users buying the smallest (personal) amounts, and they usually don't care because they know if they get scammed or it gets lost they only lost $30. The customers who want larger quan

What the hell? I wonder why that's the case. I can see why they wouldn't have time or money to fix it, but why is it that way in the first place?

I read the papers in the OP and the paper someone linked for you (you're the lazy one, not everyone else) and I still agree with the OP. I suspect you didn't read the papers in the OP because you're not talking about the same
