explain :)

I'm to lazy to do the math (substract and look for ascii code), but it should be "Merry Christmas". clue: look where "r" is i the string.

Python equivalent for convenience:

  map(lambda x: chr (x + 32), [45,69,82,82,89,0,35,72,82,73,83,84,77,65,83,1])

Just paste it into a python terminal and run it :)

  ; Racket version
  (apply string (map (λ (x) (integer->char (+ x 32))) '(45 69 82 82 89 0 35 72 82 73 83 84 77 65 83 1)))

All I want for Christmas is the three lines of CSS it would take to make HN responsive. If that's not possible, I'll take world peace instead.

Seriously, don't make it responsive. I'm already shortening my eyesight by reading HN compulsively on a large iPad, I can't imagine the effects of reading it on a phone.

I read HN since 3 years. I've created my startup 1.5 year ago. I think that says it all. Oh and I had revenue from day 70, currently cash-flow-positive, and I've taught a lot of people what bootstrapping means. Thank you, community.
