My worst comment: "Yep, working less than 30 hrs really gives you a chance to live life. I take less pay and only have to work a half week." Pretty much all of my "hater" comments were like this. Many were helpful answers to problem.

He is probably just making a corpus of negative words, where "less" and "only" probably have negative connotations. This is the problem with this kind of analysis, extracting it properly from context is really hard

My worst comment on reddit is insulting a Canadian for not liking hockey and insinuating that they don't have an appreciation for maple syrup.

I'm interested in how it manages to calculate this, because I'm a complete asshole on reddit sometimes.

Apparently, this is a negative comment: "What do you with a bunch of books and an empty pod? A racing track of course! http://bit.ly/1wThvTK " -pmelendezu "

My worst HN comment was "Freaking Hilarious. You made my day, sir."

I guess I'm back in Catholic grade school where "freak" was a strong word.

Interesting. My Mr. Rogers result is reassuring I suppose. I like my most insulting comment: "Very useful. Can you add links to amazon/hulu/torrents?" Sounds like someone tried to build a sarcasm detector.* *Will this be my new most insulting comment?

Yes, my worst comment surprised me: "That sounds like a good approach; reimplementing an existing API like EC2 or DO makes it easier to integrate your software with tools like Vagrant and Terraform." Maybe the words "reimplementing" or "existing" triggered it? For you, maybe it was "torrents"?

It might be assuming Vagrant in the "homeless person" sense?

a lot of the links to reddit comments are broken, if the title of the page in reddit has a slash in it, the slash is not being ommited/escaped in the URL and so reddit can't find it. Sample: http://www.reddit.com/r/politics/comments/6dnve/Top%20Comedi... is broken because it has a slash in the title (9/11) Killing that slash fixes it: http://www.reddit.com/r/politics/comments/6dnve/Top%20Comedi...

Thanks! I'll fix this ASAP.
