reddit 'hot' algorithm, in ruby, with typo fixed
require 'date'
# Actually doesn't matter WHAT you choose as the epoch, it
# won't change the algorithm. Just don't change it after you
# have cached computed scores. Choose something before your first
# post to avoid annoying negative numbers. Choose something close
# to your first post to keep the numbers smaller. This is, I think,
# reddit's own epoch.
$our_epoch = Time.local(2005, 12, 8, 7, 46, 43).to_time
