  The guidelines on what to submit on HN are open to interpretation. I posted this in the hopes that other HN members might find it interesting, since it might lead to a better insight into the broad effects of war on society. Frankly, I didn’t expect it to end up on the front page, but it did. HN more or less regulates itself, so I’m not too worried about submitting an article that bears little or no relation to the IT field, as long as I myself find it to be valuable.

  Really? This is a pain point if I have ever seen one. A problem in cased in a , archaic, bureaucratic and inefficient system. DISRUPT this, hacker. If not for the good it would do for a class of suffering humans, do it for the absurd sums of money being tossed into a broken system. Money won't fix this, but they will keep ratcheting up how much is shoveled in. Fix this. Or build angry birds in zombieville 2.
