    Ask HN: Where to host a online game which pays out cash prizes?

    I am developing an online game. The entry would be as little as $10US but the winner's take could be significant depending on the number of people that play. Now I am a very ethica…

    Squat cage, good bar, 220kg weights, bench press, farmer walk bar. 12 years ago. Best $2,500 I've ever spent.

    I knew I would get this answer if at all. Just shows that humans feel we are at the centre of the universe, whatever that universe is. Sounds like the 1500's all over again. I don'…

    The more we understand about the universe, the more it's structure resembles the brain. Galaxies, or more accurately, the black holes in the middle of galaxies resemble the neurons…

    I'm sorry I read about S-21 years ago because it stays with me to this day due to one thing: the lack of mercy. It somehow compels me to go see it even though I have resisted the i…

    Who cares. Firms now want so many tax concessions that cities probably lose more than they gain with these corporations. So tired of this emphasis on the economy and job growth. Th…

    I'm a well-educated man yet I find it very difficult to process the information that is coming at me. The number of issues that hit me every day just makes me want to hide in a fox…
