I'll reply here because a lot of sibling comments mention not seeing benefits to flossing, there being no evidence, etc. Not cleaning interdentally (between teeth) means you miss almost half of the tooth (crown) surface. Think of it as

Hello HN, author here. During the lockdown I managed to start a project I'd been thinking about for a while: a simple website where users can submit predictions/promises made by public figures and then follow up on whether they&#x

URI fragments would indeed be better, but you'd be relying on the page author to provide enough granularity. I like the concept of the Chrome extension, but would like to see it standardized since I don't use Chrome. For my websit

Thank you for your work, I've been a happy intercooler user for a while now. It's great to see the jquery dependency going away.

Thank you, I've been hearing about that book lately. I'll definitely look into it, it seems very relevant to this.

Hey, I think Django has some of the best documentation of any project I know (both reference and tutorials/guides): https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.0/ There is some material on using Django with intercool

Thank you everyone for your feedback, it's very motivating to see that so many people find this project interesting. I might turn this into a Show HN soon, once the site fills up with some interesting predictions. On the technical side

Thank you, it's great to get this kind of feedback. Hehe, "tracking the accuracy of the talking heads" sums it up quite nicely.

Thank you, I'm really curious where this will go. The reaction so far here on HN has been very inspiring.

Thank you. I don't think it would be spam, you meant this one, right? https://pragmaticstudio.com/phoenix-liveview Those are the videos I've been watching just to get a better idea of the concepts -- I agree, they

Thank you. That was one of the reasons I started the website, I think we desperately need experts, but it's getting more and more difficult to tell the charlatans apart from the experts outside our own field. Glad to see I'm not a

Thank you, that's what I'm aiming for as well. If you have any quotes you'd like to follow up on, please don't hesitate to submit them.

Thank you. Follow up is definitely also an issue, see also stories based on a scientific article which is then retracted. I guess information overload is partly responsible, there's always something new happening somewhere. I've t

Thank you very much for taking the time to provide detailed feedback. 1) Fake quotes do concern me, but for now I've settled on requiring a single reputable source, preferably the primary source (so in your example the DoH press relea

Thank you very much. My initial goal, should the number of quotes get too large for me to follow up myself, is to tag quotes and invite volunteer experts in a specific field to moderate quotes tagged by certain keywords. Automating that sou

Thank you for the suggestion, I didn't know about the Brier score. It does indeed look very appropriate for the author page.

Thank you. You raise a very interesting point, and I completely agree that predictions should be given much less importance. But, as you say, it is human nature to trust people who look confident, and therefore predictions do hold weight an

That should provide a good source, thank you. I've started work on Reddit integration (/u/OnTheRecordBot -- it will be a bot you can call, similar to RemindMe!). Tags are also already present in the backend, but not yet imple

Thank you very much, I was thinking of extending the concept to any (publicly accessible) quotes, like forums, HN, etc. but for now started with: - Wikipedia authors (because there's some kind of threshold for relevance there) - Twitte
