even better, just type dukgo.com/(search terms, no parens needed) and it takes you straight to the search page you want. So far it hasn't failed, no matter what punctuation I've used (Chrome)

I'm curious. Is there a public database out there of matches played between high-profile players and the results? I'd like to do my own analysis of the data if possible.

I got the message that you were offering to create mobile sites for restaurants, but maybe it's because I'm already used to the idea. I think you may be overestimating how many people have and understand smartphones, though. According to sl

As a former lifeguard (certification has expired), I agree with btilly. Treading water without your hands was part of the test for this reason. Part of the training also involved being grabbed underwater by fellow trainees. Until you've act

This seems to be their current policy, so I don't think it's appropriate for you to the past tense.

I really like this idea! I don't have a smartphone, but I would like to support you if I could. Do you have a page listing all of your customers, so I could go to them and tell them it was because of your site? Speaking of which, how are no

Having a security clearance can be job security for the private sector, too (well, government contractors). I interned at a company that decided they needed to do a large round of layoffs. To my knowledge, nobody with a security clearance l

EDIT (because for some reason my only option is reply): The other cool thing about TrueSkill is that it can handle multiple players on multiple teams. So, if anyone decides to add the capability for 1v1v1, 1v2, 1v1v2, etc, TrueSkill is read

I also think this project is really interesting (which is why I'm following it and some of the forks). May I recommend Microsoft's TrueSkill algorithm for ranking genomes? There's C#[1] and Java[2] implementations available. Full disclosure

I'm not sure. With the big announcement that was made about how they're switching and everybody here on HN celebrating, I was expecting all the [Scribd]'s to turn into HTML5 links. Is that because the HTML5 isn't ready yet, or because the H

You and I agree. Sorry if I didn't make that clear, but the way I read the post at the top of this thread, each claim could be backed with appropriate evidence for and against (as Feynman says every scientist's duty is). For a sufficiently

Actually, that is similar to the position of a physicist, just without the words "easily" and "probably". For instance, what happened before the big bang has no effect on the current universe, which is why there's so much research into the

Looks really nice. I zoomed in so I could read it, and then scrolled, noticed the nifty scroll meter at the bottom, and then it caused FF 3.6.3 to hang for quite a while (Win XP).

On SpaceX's failure rate, I think I should point out that it was the first 3 that failed, and have learned from each failure. There are too few launches to do statistics on, but it doesn't seem to me that we can infer from past events that

You're definitely not the only one. I really tried to understand the lyrics to the song linked by your parent post, and couldn't make out a word (also stopped listening after a minute because I couldn't get past the repetitive bass line).

I believe an OK Go member said that YouTube will only pay royalties for the song if it is watched on their site, and not embedded. The label would rather get the guaranteed $ from each viewing of the video than the potential $ from getting
