It's a shame that someone who frequented HN is not aware of chirality.

- djbusby 4y agoI'm here pretty often and have never heard that word. For other like me (from a quick search): Chirality is simply a geometric property which dictates that the mirror transformation of an object is a non-identity operation, i.e. the object and its mirror image are non-superimposable by any translation or rotation.
