Yep! It is interesting though that the top 3 results for this totally not specially crafted /s query are the article (expected), this comments page (fairly expected), and then an outdated 5 year old article (not so expected).

I wonder if the overall quality of Google search would improve significantly if, for some topics where timeliness is important, they ranked things more heavily by date, emphasizing recent results. This would probably have a decent impact on some technical searches, but I wonder how wide the applicability would be.
