Ask HN: What have the USDS and 18F accomplished so far?
Interested in hearing about projects that have been accomplished or examples of cool things they've done.

They've found a way to source programming work for a dollar.
What is your comment about? Is it all volunteer work?
They were experimenting with reverse auctions on software contracts, and the first contract went for $1. http://www.brendansudol.com/writing/18f-micropurchase/
Looks like the person who won that reverse auction did a follow up here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10570069
Yes, that was linked to in the comment you're replying to.
Have you visited their website? Right on the main page is a link to their projects, "Learn more about what we're building and how we're doing it.". Links to https://18f.gsa.gov/dashboard/ with over a couple dozen different government projects they're involved with.
