Totally agree. Articles like this are awesome and ideally HN would be filled with them. It's about a set of interesting hacks, that are ultimately still just hacks, but stimulate the hacker mind and add to an archive that can be drawn upon when/if the reader ever encounters the need to solve a similar problem (hopefully with better practical applicability). Articles like this are amusing, interesting, and inspiring, and embody the spirit of Hacker News.
