Thank you!


Secret Hitler! It's fun to play with a group consistently and watch the meta evolve over time. Also, yelling at people and telling everyone they are a fascist gives a special feeling.


A very close group of programming friends had years-long fun meta gaming and what not via a similar game, Avalon. It’s a King Arthur re-skin of resistance.

Every year, at every Ruby on Ales, the same group of us organizers, speakers and friends would gather at a house and play Avalon for hours and hours after the conference. So many good memories and wonderful friends were made through that game.

I played this twice the other night and enjoyed it, which shocked me because I the Resistance. I'm not sure if there's actually something different about it, or if I just enjoy the novelty of it.


First one that came to mind for me as well! I’ve played Secret Hitler a couple times now with friends, and it’s a bizarre yet fun premise for a game. Especially enjoyable if you and your group are interested in the history it’s based around.


Probably just because the more mainstream sites are more 'valuable' targets for breaches.


This goes not just for hackers, but also for Troy.

If some small site gets hacked there is a much smaller chance that it finds its way to Troy.



Not sure what the HN position is on commenting bots, but can we automate this process? Someone has to do it every single time a NYT/WSJ/WAPO article gets posted.


Agreed, the web links haven't been working for me for a while.


This is just going to end up like the race for the thinnest phone. Nobody really cares past a certain point, but jeez, they'll keep trying.


The operators care, because faster traffic means more customers per megahertz of spectrum.


It seems like no one is obligated to provide assets if they are not willing to be paid. There are many digital who already provide assets for free and would love to donate to a project such as this.


I recently bought a ThinkPad X1 Carbon. I'm pretty happy with it.


A useful filter when buying laptops is "does this laptop have the service manual accessible to mortals?"

Handily filters down to 2 companies: Dell and Lenovo. I am unsure about Librem and PogoLinux.


HP has service manuals available too, including their consumer models.

Oddly they come with the disclaimer "IMPORTANT! This document is intended for HP authorized service providers only." which makes you wonder why it's available to download from the support website.
