Ask HN: What makes a GREAT hackathon?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18239793I'm helping organize the next hackathon where I work. We have something like 30-50 people participating across technical frontend and backend teams, including UIUX folks, PMs and others.Typically our hackathons are 3 days long and are self-organized in to teams who go for various bounties. Anyone can suggest a bounty which might come with a trophy and maybe a gift card. Typically - but not exclusively - the hacks have been work related. We usually have a food challenge too during the event. Last time it was "who could eat the most pirogies" (the winner ate 100 over 3 days :-) ). We have a show & tell event at the end and open voting on the winners.We're open to changing things up!What have you seen (timing, tasks, organizationally or anything else) that works well or poorly in a hackathon?Thanks HN!Oct 17, 2018 3:09 PM

Ask HN: Browser print dialog programming or other wayshttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18165237First let me explain what i am talking about and why we need it.We are working with a world wide company for almost 20 years and a few of the countries are still using IE7 with our old version for some reason.The reason is to have ActiveX and use ScriptX to manipulate print dialog box on IE7.Client users are printing hundreds of invoices daily and each invoice or report uses different paper size and orientation, and users dont want to set print dialog settings each time they print. So, in that time, we implemented ScriptX for that purpose and everyone was happy.But in time, we updated our web application to work with all modern browsers and we moved to IE11 and ignored all prev. IE versions.After this point and with multi browser support, there is no more activex and vbscript involved. It means we can no longer use Active and ScriptX for this a few countries but they insist to have this printing functionality because time is very important for them.Now we are stuck and i cant offer anyOct 8, 2018 8:10 AM

Is stack-overflow a block-chain concept?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16003947I think that stack-overfow is conceptually a bitcoin for prestige. It should be easy to use a real block-chain to reflect the use of SO using prestige points as units of transactions. I believe that many of you are thinking of using block-chain as a way to achieve better interactions with your would be clients. And surely time is ripe for creating a chain-block abstraction whose main objective is to convert or introduce publically known value into money or other block-chain value so that recursively it finally achieves liquity and moneritation.In SO you can see the complete history of how someone gained prestige. SO a ledged book for prestige points , that book is a web page trusted internationally as of real value for programmers and open to knew transations openly with little censorship.Dec 25, 2017 12:58 PM
