Supercool Nameinator: Difference between revisions

The bot goes on Reddit and continuously scours every comment posted, and analyzes to see if any of them have "acronyms" in them. An ''acronym'' to the nameinator just means any series of words that all start with capital letters. Any time it finds one of these comments, it extracts the "definition" of this acronym and stores it in a local [https://github.com/meh/amnesia Mnesia database]. Simultaneously while it's parsing comments for acronyms, it also parses for "usages," i.e. a single word with all capital letters. When it finds one of these, and there's an associated entry in the database, it responds with a comment with the definition. Obviously it's not suited for accurate definition of acronyms, but I ran it on AskReddit for a few days anyway. The citizens of Reddit didn't seem to enjoy it that much and I got a bit of hate for it. [https://www.reddit.com/user/supercoolnameinator/overview Check out it's postings here].
