Would love to see something like this for reddit, where I'm a more active poster on a wider variety of issues.

Another commenter mentioned http://watson-um-demo.mybluemix.net/demo above, so I threw this together in bash for reddit comments. Bit more of a pain that entering a username, but if you take this:

        function redcom(){ ! [ -z "$2" ] && i="&after=$2" || i=""; data=$(curl -s "https://www.reddit.com/user/${1}/comments.json?count=100${i}"); j=$(jq -e -r '.data["after"]' >${1}-redcom.txt; echo $(echo -e $data|wc -l) lines; ( [ "$j" = "null" ] || [ -z "$j" ] ) || redcom $1 $j ;} ;
run it in bash, then run redcom , it should throw all your comments into -redcom.txt which you can then copy/paste to http://watson-um-demo.mybluemix.net/demo

Is there any insight as to how this works? I got an Openness rating of 97% and a Harmony rating of 100%, both of which I know are not true. (I also received a Love rating of 1% under my Needs, although that's pretty accurate.)

A problem I've observed with these kind of blackbox systems is that the process from input to output really is a mystery. When the results are right, they're just "right" so you should accept them, when they're wrong they're actually also right by whatever magical hamster wheel is operating inside of the thing and you just don't "get it". The problem is that humans like to have some clue as to how the results were de…

Please see my other 2 responses in this thread for some insight. I think I posted them about the same time you posted this.

Seems to be down for me: 404 Not Found: Requested route ('hn.mybluemix.net') does not exist.

it is going up and down, it seems. I am getting results though

To clarify, hn.mybluemix.net is not an IBM app. A HN user built that app and it appears to crash often

Now I'm consistently getting this: 502 Bad Gateway: Registered endpoint failed to handle the request. So, still not working for me. Edit: In fact, entering someone else's username worked, and another, but mine continues to fail. Is it just me?

I believe you are talking about the hn.mybluemix.net app. That is not an IBM app - a HN user put it together. It appears to be crash often
