It's not closing down, from the article they are moving to newer furnace technology which requires less workers to run.

This is self reported data which tends to be really bad data for obese patients.

I haven't completed or deployed it yet but I wrote a C# API to calculate your chance of winning a hand of poker based on all known cards at the table.

All unknown cards are randomly assigned and it just loops a bunch, reasonably easy to implement and actually is reasonably fast.

With the amount of possible outcomes Bayesian statistics just didn't seem reasonable to implement.

Goes without saying this tool is still fairly basic, it shouldn't be used to inform how much to bet or when to fold as it doesn't take into account information such as how much your opponents are betting.
