ShingleBot: A random sentence generator based on rejection sampling Monte Carlo
- falicon 11y agoThis is neat. (but when using it, it kinda feels like I could get as good or better results with just Math.random & a large collection of words each assigned a random value)
- wordlibrarian 11y agoTrue. I think it's a size problem. It would be interesting to have a bigger vocabulary and play with the distribution to allow rarer words in it. Without grammar, though, a random selection of words would look like in libraryofwords.com, i.e. most of the time non-sensical
- dang 11y agoThis looks good. Please email hn@ycombinator.com if you'd like us to email you a repost invite. This is an experiment we're running to give good stories a second chance at attention on HN.
