If anyone is working with the data, we should see how many users actually hivemind comment on things vs OC
You can't determine what is OC from comments, only from submission titles. But by sheer coincidence, I have made a chart comparing average scores for OC submissions vs. non-OC submissions a few months ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/comments/2rv76z/oc_...

I believe reddit comments are made under a CC license
According to Reddit's User Agreement user content: "You retain the rights to your copyrighted content or information that you submit to reddit ('user content') except as described below." And the exceptions just state that Reddit has a perpetual irrevocable worldwide license. So it seems like there's no default license and others don't have any automatic rights to use the content. Does this assessment seem correct? I…
This could be amazing as input to a question answering engine.
I actually built an IRC bot that did this once. It searched reddit for your question, took the first result, and posted the top comment. It worked very well for certain kinds of questions. Especially if it came from the better subreddits like askscience, but even just reddit in general. I improved on it a lot with a whitelist of subreddits and some machine learning to select the best thread. But I was only touching o…

I'd be very interested to learn more about your project and findings. Is that bot still alive?

EDIT: Reddit changed their api, give me a moment to fix it.

Good find, I think I got reddit confused with stackoverflow or wikipedia. If there's no clear assignment of copyright to api users, I would imagine that would be problematic for 3rd party app makers.

I turned it back on for the time being. It can be found at irc.snoonet.org at #mybots https://kiwiirc.com/client/irc.snoonet.org/mybots EDIT: Reddit changed their api, give me a moment to fix it. EDIT2: It works now!

AMAbot - is that the one?
As linked below, I've played around a bit with this dataset: https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/comments/3cjyvb/rel... BigQuery is the best interface for it. Can resolve queries on the entire dataset in less than a few seconds (however, you only get 1TB processing free per month. Since the full dataset is ~285GB, you only get 4 queries per month. Plan ahead on the May 2015 dataset, which is only 8GB.) I can ans…
