Ask HN: Which is highest up-voted submission on Hacker News?

Currently, A New Approach To China, 1125 points. See http://top.searchyc.com/submissions_by_points

Thanks, wasn't aware. Seems like list not realtime.

There's a real-time one at http://news.ycombinator.com/best, but it seems to only include stories from the past week or so.

700+ votes is ridiculous.

But compare those 700 votes on a single post to all the votes for posts calling Steve Jobs a crazy loon for the iPhone SDK TOS fiasco.

As HN is (presumably) growing, you'd need to normalise this figure using the number of unique visitors at the time the submission was made or something.
