I made my own simple multiplayer 2d game to understand this stuff and just want to let you know that your site was invaluable to understanding client side prediction and server sid…

How about airborndocs?

Yeah, I don't understand this. I read the FTC complaint and it hinged on the issue of collecting the data w/o explicit user consent, ie a pop up or message. Wouldn't nearly all int…

This is how I got in to MtG, and can confirm that its super fun. If you're lucky enough to find a group of friends that will participate, don't let the opportunity pass you by.

This is one of my favorite DF stories bar none. The last time you posted it here and I read it, I laughed so hard and showed it to so many people. Since then, I lost the link and f…

Can't launch instances in EC2 in US-East-1 at the moment.

My Dad, a physicist, taught me that game as a kid. I have great memories of him producing a pen at any restaurant we might have been at, and he and I passing any waiting time playi…

Got a link? I can't get enough bike.

This kind of valuable feedback is why I like HN so much. It's kind of you to take the time to organize and share your thoughts, asimjalis.

This isn't uncommon in the python community for long running processes - especially those that frequently that create large amounts of small objects. An application server sitting …

We must work in similar industries. We had, and scrapped, a project do to nearly exactly what you are describing. It felt like this was the next logical step for us: we had experie…

What if you could reduce your hosting costs per CPU hour by selling off your own excess cycles from within your instance. What if you could purchase cycles at a lower cost than spo…

How is security handled for this service?

This may be against twitter's ToS, but can you create a bunch of accounts with different API keys to access the api concurrently and get around the rate limits? I'm sure twitter mu…
