I was programming GameBoy about 10 years ago, and it was an amazing machine. You literally could hold the entire machine in your head when writing assembler code. It really let you push the machine to its limits, right down to the clock cy

The interesting part is that I found this paper (actually a list of references: http://kruhft.dyndns.org/item?id=151 ) through reading the the editor-people newsgroup/mailing list circa 1981 (through nntp://nntp.olduse.net). Its quite a l

Liskell is pretty much dead in the water. The site is still up but the code (in darcs repositories) is no longer accessible. Searching for another place to find the Liskell code lead me to this project.

> very short list of agencies that we wanted to work with on the redesign of the logo and were thrilled when Pentagram agreed to join us in the project Pentagram. Sounds like an appropriate company name to work on the logo redesign.

I use TPB for as a hub for distributing my own music, and so do a lot of other unsigned bands. It's not all illegal content.

I have a hacked up version of HN that I've added tags and a decent search to that I am using as a personal journal. I haven't removed account creation or anything from the regular HN, so you can still post new stories, vote and comment wit

No, you could still get to the site with just an IP address, if you have it.

It's a number on the top right of my HN page that randomly goes up and down whenever I make a post.

Cleverbot, supposedly has passed the Turing test. I have my doubts, but there is something to say about this Internet accomplishment. There will always be doubt about passing this test as it is not mathematical proof, which is probably wh

My cat is so self reliant I love any attention he gives me. But then again, I raised him. But, WTF, cat stories on Hacker News? I don't know what to say!

I'm 36 and after a hiatus and restart (of about 2 1/2 years) I'm just about to really get started again with my programming career. I'm tired of these stories.

After watching the video, being able to rotate my windows N degrees as the main showoff feature does not seem like a big selling point to me. Maybe I'm old school, but sideways and upside down windows seems like a bit of a waste of time to

The aggregation of data can be considered content, such as the yellow pages or delicious, which, I think can also be copyrighted. So if your intent is to collect links to content, I would say technically, you are creating content. Look at

I reccommend ksh over bash. That's all I use these days. It was sh done right, although it does have a bit of history to it for compatibility. To use associative arrays in ksh: typeset -A table column="name" table[$column]="value"

Once you learn the zen of shell script, like any programming language, those problems pretty much go away. Shell script is a tiny language packed with features and can be learned through constant use in a week, but like any language, it ta

True, but I think IRC will be around in another 10-20 years, twitter, not so sure. I can setup my own IRC server in an hour, can that be done with twitter? As you might have guessed I use IRC and have 'tweeted' about 10 times in my life n

No, but at least there isn't one central popular company that is on the constant monitor list. IRC allows for multiple disparate networks which are more difficult to take down (one goes down, another just pops up).

I consider IRC a step forward over twitter. Real conversations, choice of clients, multiple distributed servers, fast. And if you use emacs it's just a M-x irc away (at least to connect to freenode).

Actually, that's not too bad of an idea. I remember years back with John Carmac's plan file being read by quite a few users. Much easier than keeping up a web page, plus no artificial limits. No conversation though.
