Lamer News 0.10.0

antirez 221 days ago. 
Hello, finally I found some time to update the Lamernews code. This are the changes:

1) Ranking algo tuned for low traffic sites.
2) Code adapted to redis-rb 3.0 API changes.
3) A new /recompute url callable only if an user is flagged as admin ("a" flag) that will apply the new algorithm to the home page. Mainly useful for development.

I hope to find time for more changes in the next days.

I also merged the pull request from Frederic Cambus to fix indexing of search engines and a few more issues.

Note: you'll still see very old stories at the end of the page, this is because this site is so low traffic that there are not enough less-than-30-days news to complete the home.

However now the old stories at the end, while not subject to the rank algorithm, follow a simple reverse chronological ordering, that's a lot less odd.
