I played with machine learning and HN stories a while ago. All my classifiers only managed to predict stories I would click on with around 60% accuracy.
When I tried to classify stories I would click on myself on two different occasions I also only managed around 60% accuracy.
So I figure what I feel like reading depends on a lot of internal context too.
In the end I got good enough results feeding stories with more than X points into my instapaper automatically. Few false hits and I never know about the near misses!
