Matt, this is great stuff, I hope you continue this series of posts. This topic loosely breaks into two domains--the technical details of programming and running the bot and the theory that drives the bot's AI. Personally I think there's

This misses the point. The signal-to-noise ratio of poker is relatively low, especially when you're dealing with win rates that are only slightly above zero (as is normally the case with poker bots). A hypothetical player whose "true" win

How did this get on the frontpage? Only two upvotes and it's nonsensical.

Incredibly useful. We just released a widget, and will definitely be using this to make sure its bullet-proof.

As a follow-up, Buxfer uses Amazon FPS. It's interesting because "Financial Intermediaries and Money Service Businesses" are prohibited from using FPS ( https://payments.amazon.com/sdui/sdui/about?acceptableuse ), and Buxfer would seem to

Very cool. Easy quick improvement: add "cursor: pointer" to the CSS of the event links on the left-hand side. That will make it easier for the user to tell he should click on them.

I disagree with all the negative responses here--I think this is an excellent article with useful warnings. Yes, the 98% datapoint is random and unsubstatiated, but I think the author is using it more figuratively than literally. Most sta

I'm currently running a review-driven startup, so a couple questions related to things we deal with: 1) Are you planning on making money with this? How? Ads probably aren't the answer. 2) How do you keep users coming back? Once someone fi

I consider myself to be a highly competent web developer/designer hybrid. But is it getting to the point where even for experienced developers, it makes sense to use something like Weebly? Especially for projects that don't require much c

It currently lets you choose between "turd" and "poo". Might want to add something to flag submissions.

Perhaps a silly question: is it's longterm name Wolfram Alpha, or is the second word merely an indication that it's in alpha phase?

This article's focus on iPhone app developers is silly. Yeah, sure, you don't need VC money to build an iPhone app, but that isn't what most people would consider a legit web startup.

Sure, I totally understand that for many applications AJAX would be overkill. I understand the beauty of simplicity, and the appeal of light widgets. But with that said, AJAX is almost never used, and there are many widgets that could bene
