Really? You get a page like this and you complain that you have to download and run the code yourself? Why bother learning anything - someone else will do it for you and save you the bother.

Edit: OK, I've just re-read that and realized how snarky it is. I'm going to let it stand, but I guess I need to go away and interact with real people in the real world for a bit. Maybe for a lot.

Snarky or not, you're right. This is a perfect instance of how some in the HN community can act like spoiled brats.

"Wow, this is so useless, it doesn't comply to my standards! Go away Norvig, you uninteresting roach!"

I hope you have a lot to show for, adwhit. Maybe you'll bring humanity a step closer to enlightenment by writing another flappy bird clone or something.
