Re:Ask HN: Does anyone let AI agents play games just for fun?

I've been working on a game based on Hesse's Glass Bead Game, that both humans and AI agents can play. It's still a bit rough, but I'd love it if people or their agents would try it out:

Just outfit it with a bed, kitchen, and a bathroom, and you have a pretty stylin' motor home that can get you almost anywhere on this planet.

Re:How Dropbox sacrifices user privacy for cost savings

SHA256, which Dropbox uses, has around 10^77 possible hashes. That's 100 trillion quadrillion quadrillion quadrillion quadrillion possible values. So I wouldn't worry about hash collisions if I were you. If a hash collision happened easily in SHA256, that would be very big news for the security community, and much more serious services than Dropbox would be affected.

I've seen the screen on a netbook prototype and thought the color was pretty good. The truly great thing about the screen is how well it works in sunlight, though. I can't wait until I have a mobile screen I can use in the sun.
