That is why the user created stores would be great. You'd still get curated content, just not from steam. So it might be even better than today, in the sense of "properly" curated content!

Surely the same thing could have been said about Minecraft, having little to no mass appeal, before it became a huge hit, no?

Perhaps it would be better if the blocks were heavier? So that it isn't quite as easy to ruin everything?

I guess I can give it a try, after all, I am tired of writing those 'function's all the time ^^

OK, terrific! Perhaps that would be a nice option in the initial generation? I sure would like, not having to the delete the generated files :-)

On a side note, I can totally see myself using this. So, cheers!

Looks very nice! Will try it out for sure. Quick question, is there a option to use plain js instead of CoffeeScript?

How nice it was to see Dwarf Fortress on that list!

I read that piece more in the sense of how one could go about using disinformation and other techniques to disrupt a conversation in a hostile manner, rather then whether someone aka "the Government" actually were. To me it is at least arguable that there are powerful incentives today to do exactly this, disrupt discussion and tone down activism, making them look like lunatics on the fringes. Given such a situation where someone is inclined to do this, isn't it also arguable that these techniques might be of some effect?

The thing that I find interesting is whether these techniques might be countered. I mean, along the lines of building a better platform for discussion that is more robust towards this kind of manipulation from an hostile minority. Now that is something that's interesting for the HN crowd to discuss, isn't it?

I actually went to Kunskapsskolan as the equivalent of a High School student. Graduated in 2005. It work out very well for me, the freedom to go about the curriculum at my own pace suited me perfectly. The experience of going there was very much like what you would find at a university. The school demanded a very high level of motivation and discipline. And this makes it problematic, since quite a lot of students at that age were ill prepared to face that.

I might be hesitant to say that this reform has worked out well for Sweden as a whole, as I think for-profit entities in charge of public education is a step in the wrong direction.

I enjoyed the way that the "intelligence" of it left a lot of room for ones creativity. Nice game/tool when one is in need of a little something to get the writing flow going!

I most certainly enjoyed that! Was nice to find the apply command after poking around in the help.

  == apply: Apply to join our awesome team.
  Usage: apply <a profile url> <why do you want to apply>

Does it have anything to do with my mad skillz in solving the puzzle perhaps? ;-)

Isn't the point that it would be rather difficult to impersonate someone else? I mean, the system would realize that "someone" is misbehaving and can flag/log the actions appropriately or even disallow them entirely.

That looks brilliant! Can't wait to read it! Truly inspiring work
