Pretty warty implementation. You have to pass strings and their lengths to a C function. Ah well, it's the intention that counts. :) https://github.com/GrooveStomp/SnakeEyes

Well, I'm a software developer and I can relate to what you're saying. I certainly don't try to defend poor software, and often I find myself frustrated with the current state of s…

Thanks! The one linked in the headline read like to chatbots randomly writing stuff at each other.

I was just going to comment on this quote. Glad someone beat me to it. I wonder if it's actually one of the biggest problems, though? What are the average number of invalidations f…

If that's a Blackberry device, then why does it also have the Google logo on it?

Maybe you could change this into a poll? I use Google Reader and check it often, but I'm very selective of what I subscribe to, so there's not usually a lot of updates to catch up …

Naturally, I didn't read enough and then commented something that makes little sense in context. Thanks mbreese!

Cool. Anything similar for *nix and Windows? I'm fairly certain you can embed WebKit in GTK - in fact, I think that's functionality exposed by the API. I'm not sure to what extent …

Small demographic? I'm not aware of any hackers written in C. :)

That is so cheeky and perfect in context. :D

Very thorough introduction that emphasizes the right points. I like the author's dislike of the canvas element - and specifically his description of why he dislikes it, and how he …

> Your electric utility service is capped, but they use a different method because electric utilities are metered. You have a fixed capacity feed to your house. For example, our ho…

That diagram is hilarious! The home button continually stumps me on the iPhone. I've brought up the multitasking menu a couple of times (probably 25% of the time when I try to do i…

Maybe I'm missing something: I just see a bunch of people's profiles in a search results listing. Do I need to actually have a Facebook account to see what's relevant?

I was thinking about this the other day - with netbooks, tablets and smartphones running Android showing no signs of slowing down; Android really does seem to be "the dream come tr…

I completely agree. Hacker News is supposed to be an open, intelligent community and we really shouldn't tolerate that kind of bullying. It's amazing how some people react to acts …

This is an awesome analysis. I think the best thing to come out of Google+ is the clarification of kinds of digital social interactions and how we might tackle those in the (short-…

Alright, that's done, now where's the all-code Hacker News? :)

Apparently saurik and I are the only ones confused! I found it very jarring to read that Firefox 6 isn't out yet, but the thread talks as if Firefox 8 is actually out, or very clos…

I completely agree with you. My sister in law was talking about working for a high-profile lobbying group because "That's how real political change happens." I pretty much felt sic…

Color me interested. I only did a super short-and-quick scan, but it looked nice for newbs trying to get up to speed. My #1 hurdle to adopting server-side Javascript is the terribl…

#5 seems like a very poor reason, but it depends on what your goals are. I liked this story a lot: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2728167 (or, direct link: http://dirkriehle.c…

Thanks. I clicked the link thinking it was the other project Harmony: http://harmony.apache.org/

Even with the pause my phone doesn't recognize it. It might not have been too fast before, afterall. Do I need a special QR reader to read them?
