It amuses me that after all this time I still go back and forth on whether HipsterDBag is a gimmick commenter.

Per usual, Russia saves the day.

Quite a few of them are 15 years old. It's quite funny that the media (that's right AV Club, you're the media) refers to them as "hackers."

It signified nothing whatsoever, really? It's a computer that can answer general knowledge questions based on wordplay, and do it as well as a Jeopardy champion. That's an incredibly impressive accomplishment.
