Anecdote from my experience; having a cup of decaf tea with a spoonful of unfiltered honey leads to some of my most restful nights of sleep. My tea of choice is chamomile. My other, debatably healthy crutch is a fan which manages a cool tem

I met my now fiancè in an adult social sports league which I highly recommend for social activity in general, not just romantic purposes. The league was/is adult kickball, but there are several out there that encourage solo signups and

Coming from a complete novice; can you expand upon the "NGS" technology, particularly the temporal aspect?

by ncavig 12y ago
Fair point, but I do appreciate stories that have to do with health of the human body as it lends to the idea of body hacking and performance tuning. If you peruse around, there's a lot of HN contributed stories and comments having to

Send me an email through the site with your email, and I can give you a json file of the stats. It just wouldn't be practical to keep it up as a reachable endpoint - too costly

There is not one at this moment. It's quite an expensive request to serve season stats for n teams.

There's a few exposed json endpoints for data, the matchup page, team page, and player page. eg team: http://madness.io/teams/fak.json eg player: http://madness.io/players/1772.json eg matchu

Thanks for the interest! For MySQL I wanted an easy ORM layer for team, conference and player data. Essentially those 3 objects are stored in MySQL. For redis, I use ordered lists for sorting and easily discerning indexes of team and player

Would also be cool to be able to include more detailed data. There's some useful data points exposed at http://madness.io including Tempo-free stats and (not advertised) json endpoints, http://madness.io/tea

OP here; Showing a little side project of mine that will hopefully appeal to sports and stats fans alike. I am an engineer with a great passion for sports, particularly college basketball. My goal is/was to set up a site to easily disc

Nice responsive site. The two biggest pain points for me without evening purchasing a drink; 1) finding a nearby bar is quite painful especially on a mobile device. Possibly integrate html5 geolocation to pinpoint and zoom in on your curren

FWIW I do have a strong majority of portfolio dedicated to index funds, and have automatic investing set up for those funds biweekly. But there do come times where I see a company, and after some due diligence I do see as a company I believ

This might be a stupid question, but as a Tesla stock owner, and (becoming more apparent ever day) naive investor, how do you find out this information and/or digest it so well? I'm mainly a google finance guy and had no idea so much of the

Just a suggestion, but it seems like n requests in t for free would be a good model too. eg: Free 60 requests free per hour. 600 free test transactions is great, but for ongoing development the sandbox idea or rate limiting for a free plan

I absolutely agree. The two most important features to me would be the accurate and measurability of the inputs (heart rate, o2 saturation, etc) and the ability to get that data (API). I don't want my friends to know I just reached 120BPM i

If you want more control I recommend the open source gitlabhq ( http://gitlabhq.com/ ) - we run it for our repos, plus you can be in control of number of repos allowed per user. I consistently create repos for proof of concept or side proje

No, it's not. But since Rails 3 neither is rails really. Rails is more about the ActiveModel pattern, which has it's own API. Active Record inherits from ActiveModel. You can pick and choose what you want in your persistence classes, or eve

http://batsov.com/articles/2011/06/19/django-vs-rails/ appears to give a quick breakdown, but also misses some key features in my opinion. I've worked with rails for about 5 years and Django for a little over 16 months now. There's some t

This isn't really solving a problem. Phone numbers are already unique, so why replace with another unique based system that has a one to one correspondence? I'd really like to see something like DNS. You can register a "phone number" or "ph

I agree. I'm a bit ashamed to say that, in addition to what you mentioned, I've noticed that companies and stores that I did frequent fairly often that did end up doing a Groupon or similar daily deal, lost more of my business after the fac
