It's very short and not at all in-depth, but this was my favorite comment. It was one of the greatest troll shutdowns I've ever seen: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35083 |

I haven't. But I think it's super funny and cool that you (yourself) are pointing it out. All the best with you. Edit: just read the "comeback of all time". That was really funny. Nice nod from PG as well. For those of you unaware like me: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35083 Colin is our resident mathematical genius :) |
