I find the algorithm very funny because this tweet: >Spike Lee produced a Bernie Mac, Cedric the Entertainer, and Steve Harvey comedy special? Was apparently one of my worst.

For me it was:

> You're a shit comment.

On reddit. So that at least seems accurate!

Interesting. However, my most insulting comment doesn't appear to be that insulting: (it's not like I've been very active on HN)

"Either your CPU is too fast or too slow. I can't really fix anything since I don't have a Mac to test with. It works fine on Windows."

Concept is nice, landing page and the website are nice. What needs more work is the algorithm for determining hate. Almost all the comments that Hater News chewed out of my Reddit username were not at all* trolling. Indeed some statements were even contributing to the discussion.

Is there an upper limit to the number of characters this will analyze? I've gotten into arguments here & on reddit that, while civil, are certainly more vitriolic than what the script found. All I can think is that longer diatribes are ignored?

From HN: "I've researched the "why" and a couple years ago had the opportunity to discuss some of the broader ideas in the history & anthropology of locks. It was actually titled "Why do you lock your door?" -emhart

From reddit: "Very glad you dropped in. Nice to have someone with first hand experience offer this up, thanks." -schuylertowne

From twitter: "Here is the US patent filing for that taiwanese lock, so you can see the illustrations: https://t.co/K7F3aY6RTD" -shoebox
