Comment on Show HN: What would Paul Graham do?

Comments

It appears to work. I asked it where to go for lunch, and the first reference to lunch it found was Oren's Hummus.

According to this search engine, McCain and Obama cereal sold by the founders of AirBnB is part of a balanced pg breakfast.

Heh, even a local gelato place is currently inviting people to choose between "Mint" Romney and "Ba-Rocky" Road.

I asked about clojure and it didn't find anything. Here there is a thread on HN that asks the same: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3690026 .

PG, in case you are still around here, which is your take on clojure?

It's the Lisp dialect I usually recommend.

Have your views on Common Lisp changed, since you wrote your ANSI Common Lisp?

Not really, no.

Thanks!

The site only indexes comments by pg, I guess in the 1000 comments that have been indexed, none of them talk mention clojure. I'm trying to hack around ThriftDB's search api [1] limitation of 1000 items [2] by sorting by different possible terms. The site currently only captures the top 1000 of the roughly ~8000 comments that pg has written (by score).

If anyone has a solution to this, please let me know!

If you query the HNSearch API in real-time you won't run into problems with the 1000 result limit. There are 8 comments where PG mentioned "clojure":
