This is why I love HN. Were you randomly looking up Valve-assigned patents and happened to stumble on this?

  "This is why I love HN." Thank you... same here! I'm just very interested in the game industry (and a lot of other fields). I tend to R&R (Read and Research) a lot! -- Edit: Valve Corporation patents, for those interested: https://www.google.com/search?tbm=pts&hl=en&q=%22Valve+Corporation%2C+Washington%22 https://www.google.com/search?tbm=pts&hl=en&q=%22Valve+Corpo...

    I don't know of R&R and a search comes up empty...anyone have a link?

      It's not a technology. It's how that user describes spending their time. Like, "RTCHN - Responding To Comments on HN"

        It's also a pun - R&R would normally stand for "rest and recreation."

  Hardly a HN exclusive. :) From 2012: http://kotaku.com/5890372/is-this-valves-control-pad-design/ http://kotaku.com/5890372/is-this-valves-control-pad-design/

    It was posted here too. What's cool in this case is that user X asks about the relevance of P, and user Y comes up with many months olds news on Q that happens to be the perfect missing piece in the puzzle. This stuff happens all the time. Why is R this way? CEO of R Inc. comes up to tell you. Why is S not in space? It just so happen that a engineer from the space program is reading the comment and answers with a detailed insightful post. When that happens, HN is awesome.
