> I like the idea, but I'm very skeptical of the implementation. My saltiest comments per the tool are not remotely salty, and I'm sure I have many saltier comments. Turns out NLP is hard.
> FWIW, my salt score is -0.09 ;)
Same salt score, same opinion on the results. My top salty comment has a score of -1.00
> > > Unfortunately it's not a bottle. It's just a plastic cup with a lid and a straw. A really big plastic cup that tapers at the bottom so you can fit it in your vehicle's cupholder.
> > In USA even the cups have muffin-tops!?
> Yep. Horrific, isn't it?
It's a joke, it's not terribly on topic, and it's a bit glib. But salty? Nah.
Fourth most "salty" comment, at a score of -0.50:
> I like having a library that I can flip to when I'm bored and want to do something productive.
Seventh most salty, at -0.45, is literally just an explanation of the second argument in Javascript's parseInt function. Ninth is just an earnest recap of a conversation about earworms.
Meanwhile the saltiest comment I saw in a quick skim is in 12th place, with a score of -0.30. I was discussing House of Cards and the then recent scandal around Kevin Spacey, and someone was putting words in my mouth and claiming I said things that I didn't actually say or believe. I was quite salty in my response(s), but here the tool marked it as 70% less salty than joking about muffin topped cups.
