Medium Maker
- sebkomianos 13y agoYou probably mean "Medium TITLES Maker"?
- zv 13y agoAbsolutely brilliant.
- uniclaude 13y agoAs funny as it is, this type of titles are not only seen on Medium.
- Cthulhu_ 13y agoYeah, add a "<number> <nouns> that <verb>" and you've got yourself an allround blog title generator.
- spindritf 13y agoSurprisingly accurate at first. See also https://twitter.com/FalseMedium https://twitter.com/FalseMedium and, even funnier, https://twitter.com/Vice_Is_Hip https://twitter.com/Vice_Is_Hip
- Cherian 13y agoThis made my day!
- agranig 13y agoWait, what?
- lixef 13y agoThis sums Medium pretty much up.
- gcatalfamo 13y agoAWE-SOME
- timkeller 13y agoAbsolutely fantastic.
- Ashuu 13y agoVery funny!! Wait, what?
- gosub 13y agoThis makes me think how much I would like a HN without opinion pieces.
- makmanalp 13y agoThis is hilarious. It needs a "Why <hugely popular thing> is dead" and a "Why I quit my job to ... "
- mark_sz 13y agoLegen... wait for it... dary!
- bramkok 13y agoI was expecting a Markov chain manipulating a huge array of aggregated Medium titles but as simple as the cotton candy titles of Medium are so is this script.
- anarchitect 13y agoI made a Bat For Lashes lyric generator some years back http://nickboyce.com/bfl/ http://nickboyce.com/bfl/, which will only make sense to people who know her music!
- dodyg 13y agoHa..ha.
- pushingsocial 13y agoVery clever. Great. Compliments my blog post today nicely http://pushingsocial.com/write-great-headlines-without-hype-gimmicks/ http://pushingsocial.com/write-great-headlines-without-hype-...
- delinka 13y ago"How Making Tacos Enhanced the Toilet Paper I Used." This is going to be one disgusting post.
- MrZongle2 13y agoThat's a pretty broad definition of "enhanced".
- mortenjorck 13y agoThis is a great start, but it needs some more patterns. "How/why <noun> <verb> <noun>" may well be the most popular Medium title construction, but I would suggest looking for a few more. Here's a few to start: "<verb> <noun> and why it matters" "The day I <verb> <noun>" "The <adjective> story of my <noun>"
- nhqe 13y agoDefinitely, there's tons of room for improvement.
- rajbot 13y agoI got tired of the linkbait titles and made a user script to remove all medium.com links from HN. It works in Firefox and Chrome: https://github.com/rajbot/remove_medium https://github.com/rajbot/remove_medium
- LukeG 13y agohahaha so good
- languagehacker 13y agoAh, the context-free grammar. Reminds me of my MediaTakeOut Headline Generator (http://robertelwell.info/mediatakeout-headline-generator/ http://robertelwell.info/mediatakeout-headline-generator/). Mine's an N-Gram language model though, so a lot more noise and nonsense.
