Re:Exercism.io – Become a better programmer on Thursday April 02, 2015 @12:44AM (#9308718)
You know what'd be a cool website/application? A front end to all these 'learn-to-code' things. Like how Mint is a front end to multiple bank's websites I could have one account that interfaces into project euler, rosalind, exercism, etc grabs exercises and checks them.

I always thought of hackers as people who loved various forms of freedom, including but not limited to economic and technological freedom.
Re:The Dark Web’s Top Drug Market, Evolution, Just Vanished on Wednesday March 18, 2015 @09:55PM (#9229807)
They offered protection, though didn't they? Evolution had multiescrow, they wouldn't have gotten those funds would they have?
No plans on how to use them vs Plans to not use them. Sneaky.

Deciding to put a stranger-USB device in your computer is a thing you do, and decided to do. Getting hit in the head with a bat isn't.

It's meta-searchengine-ness is exactly why I personally use it. A `!` away from any search engine I need.

Not enough karma, if I had to guess.
Re:Ask HN: Will "news.ycombinator.com" return? on Thursday January 09, 2014 @12:22AM (#7028928)
Where did it go?
I don't know if it differs from state to state or even possibly county to county, but I got my first ID (in Florida), recently and it was 36 dollars and some change, so not to far off
Re:9 Hole Code Golf Challenge on Monday December 30, 2013 @02:17AM (#6983506)
Modern hard drives have gigabytes of storage, so shaving 100 characters of a source code is pointless. I always thought code golf was for fun more than anything.

Re:Ask HN: Do you like the change in the way HN looks? on Wednesday December 25, 2013 @10:21PM (#6965141)

DuckDuckGo shows something similar but using the MDN instead.
Am I in the wrong for briefly wondering why 3d-printed dildos was on HN?
