schestowitz | > | Aug 15 22:33 |
schestowitz | > 2. hours were spent manually combing through the output for the most important topics to cover. This is fine for my own curiosity, but the process for choosing what topics to "process" doesn't even rely on the list of frequencies-- it relies on the same manual/individual timely requests as before. | Aug 15 22:33 |
schestowitz | > | Aug 15 22:33 |
schestowitz | > 3. the code was never intended to be made public as-is. It's fine that it was, but the only purpose was to do a better indexing of existing articles, via the wiki. | Aug 15 22:33 |
schestowitz | > | Aug 15 22:33 |
schestowitz | > Now, I've already added new features to do things that Dr. Roy wanted, but the fact that some punctuation remains glued to the alphanumerics is a feature.

schestowitz | > | Aug 15 22:33 |

schestowitz | > | Aug 15 22:33 |
schestowitz | > Searching for multiword phrases would be a feature, if the software were designed around processing just a few (5 to 10) phrases. Instead, it indexes tens of thousands of articles based on thousands of keywords. I'm not saying it does a stellar job of it, just that it does what it's designed to do. | Aug 15 22:33 |
schestowitz | > | Aug 15 22:33 |

schestowitz | > | Aug 15 22:33 |

schestowitz | > 5. if the purpose of any of the code was to assess individual word frequency, it would be terrible at that and worth fixing. But if you have a copy of every article on Techrights, and you want to do a word frequency count, you're better off using a tool designed for that purpose. | Aug 15 22:34 |

schestowitz | > One of the reasons I would have waited to put this code up, was that it is designed for internal use, not public use. The public is welcome to it, but I'm not sure in its current form that it is ideal for that at all. | Aug 15 22:34 |

schestowitz | > I wasn't out to make a suitable universal tool for indexing Techrights-- there are already tools for indexing websites. This was a custom tool with particular goals, and it is presently the only tool getting the job done. | Aug 15 22:34 |
schestowitz | > | Aug 15 22:34 |
schestowitz | > Of course I welcome the development of other, better tools-- Techrights was looking for someone to help with the wiki and I made these tools to make the job easier for myself. As a result, I've done easily 100x what was asked-- and had more fun, the manual task proposed was grueling and thankless. Doing it this way was actually fun for me. | Aug 15 22:34 |

schestowitz | > I hope you understand that I've fixed any bugs in the software that prevent it from doing a good enough job of what I wrote it for. It's not broken, nor perfect, it is just a tool to save me manual work that would be less thorough (not more meticulous or more complete) without the tool. | Aug 15 22:34 |

schestowitz | > These tools were not designed for statistical purposes, nor do they need statistical accuracy. They were designed as an alternative to Google searches and manual wiki editing. The final output is still looked over manually, and added manually, though not by me. The tools only assist that work, they don't do all of it. | Aug 15 22:34 |
schestowitz | > | Aug 15 22:34 |
schestowitz | > I still think it's a fine idea to make the code public, for all the potential reasons that public code may help. If you wish to improve the code, or adapt it to new tasks, that is largely the point of free software. Whether that will help me help Techrights maintain their wiki, I don't know. I only signed up to assist and contribute-- not to be in charge of the wiki, which I am not. | Aug 15 22:34 |

r_schestowitz | "And, since it’s easy to erase a Chromebook and then reset it to your account, this is safer than using a used Windows laptop."

r_schestowitz | I installed Gallium Linux over ChromeOS on my daugher's Chromebook, and she hardly knows the difference. I was even able to get Netflix working. The main difference for her is that she can use LibreOffice without even connecting to the internet. | Aug 15 23:56 |

r_schestowitz | hopefully risc-v turns out like raspberry pi. when those came out and everybody was excited over preorders i was like “whatever, ill wait.” | Aug 15 23:57 |

r_schestowitz | it will help their sales, which helps their viability, which is ultimately good for all of us. we want them (i certainly do) to do as well as raspberry pi. and people made a very big deal over those-- look at the outcome of that. | Aug 15 23:57 |

r_schestowitz | Yeah, one of the most important, though overlooked, benefits of the RPi is that the success has bled into a widespread interest in ARM platforms in general. Take a look at the Armbian site to see what I mean. (I myself was not impressed with the RPi, but the offerings of Odroid, Pine64/Rock64, and Marvell have me excited - Odroid in particular). | Aug 15 23:58 |
