Show HN: Analysing Hacker News Metadata with R
- petenixey 13y agoThis is super-interesting, thank you for posting. Where did you originally get the data from to do this analysis? Have you been harvesting it yourself?
- vrepsys 13y agoThanks. I scraped the data from https://www.hnsearch.com/ https://www.hnsearch.com/. They have a very nice REST API.
- dmix 13y agoLooks like a few of the top posters stopped using HN as much >2011. Are there some public traffic stats for HN? I'm curious if this was around the time when HN became flooded with new users. The quality has somewhat declined since then (as with all communities). Although, tptacek is still an HN machine.
- tptacek 13y agoYeah that's really embarrassing.
- samspenc 13y agoWaiting to see a comment from tptacek! :)
- ekrsulov 13y agoSee kibana3 dashboard http://hnk.aws.af.cm/index.html http://hnk.aws.af.cm/index.html , data from hckrnews.com data, elasticsearch qbox.io, hosting in appfog.
