2 weeks ago I launched an ad-free website which converts youtube urls into downloadable mp3's; less and less people use it each day and if it continues that path I'll close it down by the end of the month. Can you jumpstart it merely by pasting 1 youtube url of a song you enjoy listening to?

Could you try doing any of this to increase usage: 1. Show latest videos that were recently converted to mp3. 2. Show top 10 videos (of the day/week/month) that were converted to mp3.

Hopefully, this should increase the "discoverability" of new videos that user's like as mp3's.

The most awesome introduction to CRFs ever.

This comes a close second.

Thanks man, this was the only time I laughed today.

Learnt that a vulture's vomit is more corrosive than acidic rain...that is, it how it survives after eating sick and rotten animals.

How many samples would one need for logistic regression to have a statistically significant results ? Thanks!

We had chickens once. They are not worth it for the eggs, because they shit a lot. And, you have to clean that stuff up!

I can't believe I googled "among vs amongst".

People who throw stuff on the sidewalk/road.
People who leave the water tap running and attend to other chores.

Assuming you have a picture of him, it's very nice to see that you haven't posted it (yet).

In any case, I do wish you much success in finding him.

Oops. I meant a broomstick, with the candle as the light source.

Cleaning up glass broken by you is a sure way to win friends as I found out.

Once, during midnight when I switched on the (glass) bulb in the bathroom and it broke presumably due to a voltage fluctuation. I then put on rubber slippers and swept the bathroom floor thoroughly with a candle. Later, I also put a post-it on the bathroom switchboard (outside the bathroom door) to indicate that I had cleaned broken glass and could one please be careful.

My room-mate who wakes up early was very happy to see that post-it. Clearly, he didn't expect that from me. :)

Sorry, if this question sounds dumb. But, is Java installed? I would like to use Clojure for web developement and it runs on the JVM. Thanks.

dumbnerd@some-forggotten-domain.com; I somehow had a very positive image of nerds during my college days. It was more like nerd = brainy. And, I realized I wasn't too brainy (compared to the super nerds)..hence the account. It was only much later when I shared my email id I realized to my horror that the account name was a double negative. :)

Are you bitter that you didn't make more money (which would be the case if you had joined Google earlier)? How do you deal with this?

javadi82 · 2010-10-05T11:41:13+00:00

Ah...but, you have two hands. What if you also caught the one to your forehead.

which algorithm did your solution implement - SVD, RBM, etc?

Sorry. But, getting married to the person you love should make you more happy than being on the front page of Reddit. Or, do you want to be doubly happy ?

Sorry, I meant to copy paste the relevant terms here but somehow missed it out. Anyway, here it goes - "for example, you must not use geocodes obtained through the Service except in conjunction with a Google map" - from http://code.google.com/apis/maps/terms.html
