Bain's Law is a classic. Unfortunately, I don't have the link. The entire thread for SleepSort is great (just google it). As for more recent stuff, I enjoyed the thread on QuakeWorld (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11934608) (full disclosure, I posted the article, and participated heavily in the thread). And just today, I saw QuineDB (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12492812). Sorry I couldn't give you something better. |
