A couple of years ago I made a Chrome Extension that removes everyone's eyes:

Are we allowed to turn up with stupid flashy well-polished projects that we've already been working on for 18 months to ensure that we win?

I love knocking out stupid things no one would ever need:
http://StanderOrSitter.com -- do you stand or sit when you wipe?
http://SwapAVote.com -- why vote when you can simply match with an opposing supporter?
Look forward to the next hackathon in NYC.

Yes! This is the hackaton I've been waiting for. Practical in its purpose, low key, and (hopefully) fun.
Wish I wasn't on the opposite side of the country ... Also wish I didn't miss the one that was on my side of the country

What other types of hackathons are out there?
I remember reading about TSSNON & Terrible Ideas Hackathon back in the day.
Now that I see it in the spotlight. I wonder what other kinds of niche hackathons do you guys know about?

Is this actually a real thing or just a play on the dirty secret of hackathons?
by Joof on 4/20/16, 12:13 PM
You mean there are hackathons that aren't just trying to get me to build something with (insert company X)'s technology?

A FPS bot that gimmicks a 14 year old gamer. It either camps or goes full on spray and pray, is constantly flooding chat with insults, accusing people of cheating and calling them fags, and team kills "4 the lulz!!!"

Funny how the sponsor is Nylas: give us all your email credentials and we will do something with it :)

Is it real?
I'm still not sure.
But I have a great idea for the Farm to BigTable prize...

Last year I made a stupid shit social website that no one used or cared about. Wish I had used this or a similar context. Could have been a softer fall.

Oh man, I wish someone would do something like this in Portland, OR. I'd build an app that calls you every 5 minutes to play the Macarena. :)

Finally - an honestly advertised hackathon.

hmmm, I've been thinking about making a website to help recruit disenfranchised millennials into indentured servitude and I'll be free and in the area (I'm about to move to the bay area). Might be fun, but i'm not sure I should blur the line between satire and terrifying reality so much.

The original hackathon page is probably NSFW, by the way.
by joshu on 4/20/16, 4:39 PM
I sponsored last year's. It was a blast!

I read the title and thought it was about an article reviewing a real hackaton.
