I don't believe in gods, but if I did, I'd pray that I don't live to 90. Yikes.

Questionable is probably not the right word. The idea is to find characters that you might be surprised are in your document. It's specifically helpful for zero width or invisible characters, which is replaces with their name.

Future revisions might say "Most of your characters are European but you have this one Kanji character, let's highlight that"

But for now it just highlights all non-ASCII.

If anyone's interested in playing a brand new game of Nomic on Github: https://github.com/audiodude/odeon

I'd really like to play Nomic, preferably online, and I'm interested in joining Agora. How do you keep track of who is a current player and get the game back in motion?

Nothing about these chat applications should be called "distraction-free".

Same error on connect here, same problem with not being able to get the Steam programs to see each other.

Here's another video that doesn't behave well on desktop: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ

Oh wow, I didn't know that there was timing or scoring. Just suddenly it told me I had 61 points. It was very jarring and confusing.

Thumbs down.

Agreed, this is horrifying.

I think it's mostly just designed to raise awareness. There's no "Get Involved" link, but I'm not sure how your average citizen gets involved with nuclear tech in general...

Is there an ELI5 version?

I think the specific "product" they are referring to is Amazon's willingness to accept the authorization at a certain point and then only actually charge the card later when Kickstarter signaled that the project was funded.

I remember hearing a long time ago that Amazon wasn't particularly happy with this arrangement, and had specifically declined to offer it to Kickstarter competitors.

In case anyone is wondering, once again nothing will enter the public domain in the United States because of Congress' perpetual habit of retroactively extending copyright on works. The next time anything will enter the public domain in the US is January 1, 2019. source: https://web.law.duke.edu/cspd/publicdomainday

Why is it always the thing I needed yesterday is on HN today?

I went with DoneDone (http://www.getdonedone.com/)

For 12 bucks a person, I'm sorry, I'm going to the local taqueria, getting my burrito cooked for me, and saving 4 bucks. Forget cooking.

I think the real tragedy is not the missing root beer, but the apparent fact that there would be no way to lift that ban now, given the bloated and corrupt bureaucracy we're dealing with.

Sounds like a moderately fun video game?

Upvoted for pure hilarious insanity.

Speaking as someone who contributed a few scrapers to the inspectors general project (https://github.com/unitedstates/inspectors-general), I think this is a great and worthwhile effort. It's actually not that hard to contribute a scraper if you know a little Python (and maybe a way to learn a little Python if you don't).

One thing that my friend who works in Open Data has told me is that it's important for websites like this to exist, to be able to point non-technical people at them and say "SEE. THIS is why you can't just publish everything as a PDF".

Just remember: whatever piece of code you're working on right now; whatever tiny feature on a tiny website you're trying to implement; that is your Sistine Chapel.

I cannot believe that fetus.es is still available!!

I looked at your fork and I don't see any commits, how did the code get updated?

Good point, the text has been updated.

This is amazing, very well done, perfect for what I needed! I was scouring the web for simple buttons all morning and couldn't quite find anything I liked. I was getting ready to include a "custom" Boostrap with just the buttons, but this is much better. Thanks!

It had to be done....

When given the chance to register a domain for free, I chose 0-z-0.com. The idea was that it's a simple, generic domain. I now host things at something.0-z-0.com and if it becomes more than a weekend project I might migrate it to its own domain.

Any information more recent than 2008?

Reminds me of this comic: http://deep-hurting.deviantart.com/art/And-in-the-Darkness-B...

Does anyone have this document as something better than a printout on a series of postage stamps that have been scanned at a 15 degree angle?

Came for world changing technology.

Got vegetables.
