  14. …able to read HN on mobile devices more easily. I commited some code on github that achieves that: https://github.com/nex3/arc/commit/0efaa1b189c4ed54c4f91a7ec... It only adds a viewport meta tag and some styling which applies to small…
  15. https://github.com/nex3/arc/blob/master/news.arc Dunno how closely it tracks the version that's actually on the site, I think it was forked from PG's release a while back and various people have patched it.

  19. …responsible for keeping track of the user's session, and not the server. Edit : Here is the source: https://github.com/nex3/arc/blob/master/news.arc#L948 Looking at that has made me realise I can't read Lisp.
  20. https://github.com/nex3/arc
  21. …founder, pg, appears intentionally to omit himself from the leader list. The source code for HN, https://github.com/nex3/arc/blob/master/news.arc illustrates how the site operates (apart from some recent experiments, I think).

  38. Paul, this would be a great opportunity for you to plug Arc, an increasingly active Anarki ( http://github.com/nex3/arc ), and the growing Arc community ( http://arclanguage.org/forum ).

  48. Instructions on setting up the news site. http://github.com/nex3/arc/blob/master/how-to-run-news Question: What kind of server does one need to setup arc on it? Do you need like a total control (as in virtual/dedicated servers)?

  49. http://github.com/nex3/arc/blob/master/news.arc I'm not sure if this is the latest version, but should point you in the right direction. My understanding is that pg keeps some aspects (eg, the hellbanning protocols) out of this code to…
