This isn't Hacker News material.

Votes decide that, not you.

Communities can hold themselves to standards and people can try to convince each other that those standards are good.

It is SUPER telling that the only people that disagree with me have accounts that are younger than mine while the ones that agree with me have accounts that are older than mine.

Damn, I'm 100% Italian and don't understand half of the words in it. Gotta hate dialects.

Apologies! I probably can't speak most of them anymore either, not with a passable accent... Dialects are one of those things emigrants like me tend to romanticise. It is true that they're an actual hindrance in many cases (in places like Veneto you're shut out of most business communities if you can't speak the local lingo) and tend to be loudly represented by the most xenophobic elements. Still, they're part and pa…

That's true. I live in Friuli Venezia Giulia and not knowing the local dialect I'm often excluded from a lot of discussions.

It's a well-executed joke aimed at the Hacker community. I enjoyed it and upvoted it.

It's a hello world rest app. There is nothing interesting about it at all.

For me I appreciate it from the end result, not the underlying guts of how it works.

Telnet is simpler... I call this my random insult service and it can run on any TCP port. It's not as rude as saying "Fuck Off" as it is meant to be humorous and is intended for all the script-kiddie port scanners out there: telnet 108.4.184.93

telnet: connect to address 108.4.184.93: Operation timed out telnet: Unable to connect to remote host

ISP rotated out the IP... DHCP. I'll find a static one someplace and put it up.

Edit: This works until 3:30 PM today (East Coast USA time):

    telnet insult.16s.us

This is great! In case anyone without telnet wants to see: here are 46 insults from that telnet service. http://pastebin.com/6SP2PucG I'm partial to "Your IQ is the same as the temperature in this room. And it's cold in here."

That was inspired by this Great Santini quote: That was the man who dandled me on his knee when I was a young boy—the Great Santini. I once introduced my father when I was giving a talk like this, and I said, "My father decided to go in the Marine Corps when he found out that his IQ was the temperature of this room." My father got up right behind me. He stared down at the audience and he said, "My God, it's hot in he…

Thanks for reminding me of that movie. Haven't seen it in years. Just checked and not on netflix though.

Calling it a joke is a real stretch. Apparently HN is populated entirely by preteen boys who think that the word "fuck" is hilarious.
