The 3D printed stuff I've handled had a very unpleasant grain - rather like rough wood. I could feel the sub-millimeter layers that it was built up in, and they're not quite perfectly lined up. I don't know how difficult it i

No flashy adverts - static images are so much less distracting. A few places use animated GIFs, but they're a minority among minorities.

"It's electric" is by far the best variation. It should probably have been clearer what the different buttons at the start do. I selected "Classic", and then spent quite a while looking for the twist. I'd assum

Whether or not it's the same thing, it uses the same mechanics. You can link the output of one transaction to the input of the next, and construct a chain of transactions that says "This 0.125 BTC transaction uses bitcoins that we

Yes, if you're selling your stuff on the free market you shouldn't expect that your competitors will go easy on you. If they do, somebody somewhere is probably violating an antitrust law.

There's some odd behaviour when a country ends up over the South Pole. Apparently it turns inside-out.

The target number is 2^50, and the grid is 64x64, so I think this should be fairly easy to beat if you ignore the fact that it'll take about ten million years at one move per second.

Your English is a bit stilted in places - "Just check that the distance from A-B and B-A are not equal because it is the distance related to road.". And I'm getting Application Errors too.

I don't get it. I can click on Flappy Bird to play there, and move tiles in 2048 to play there, but there doesn't seem to be any interaction between the two.

That's not a hack, that's actually the best way to do it. And it can work with more complex shapes (even non-convex ones) as long as you can find the tangent points - which isn't always easy.

Well, remember that it also has to fit in the row/column. If there's three spaces available, the string has to have three characters. So (O|RM|HHM)* can only really match ORM, RMO, and HHM.
