|
||
|
hackathon</a>
|
||
|
we decided to build a prototype that would allow us to compare how
|
||
|
different countries feel about several topics. We used the OpeNER
|
||
|
pipeline to get the sentiment from a set of newspaper articles we
|
||
|
gathered from media in several languages. Then we aggregated those
|
||
|
articles by category and country (using the source of the article or the
|
||
|
language it was written in), obtaining the "overall feeling" of each
|
||
|
country about each topic. Then, we used some fancy JavaScript to make
|
||
|
sense out of the raw information.</p>
|
||
|
<p>It didn't go too bad, it turns out <a class="reference external" href="http://eurosentiment.eu/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/BOLv9qnCIAAJEek.jpg">we
|

|
won</a>.</p>
|

<p>Now, it was time for a face-lift. I used this opportunity to play with
|
||
|
new technologies and improve it:</p>

python 3.4 working using the

<a class="reference external" href="https://launchpad.net/~fkrull/+archive/deadsnakes">deadsnakes</a> ppa,

so I used python 3.3 instead, which works fine but is not officially

supported. Just create a file named <em>runtime.txt</em> in your project root,

<h2>Publishing personal emails</h2>
|

<p>There are really sophisticated and effective ways to obfuscate personal

emails so that spammers cannot easily grab yours. However, this time I

needed something really simple to hide our emails from the simplest form

|
of crawlers. Most of the team are in academia somehow, so in the end all
|

our emails are available in sites like Google Scholar. Anyway, nobody

likes getting spammed so I settled for a custom <a class="reference external" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caesar_cipher">Caesar

<a class="reference external" href="http://phantomjs.org/">PhantomJS</a>,

<a class="reference external" href="http://zombie.labnotes.org/">ZombieJS</a> or similar. For that, other

approaches like generating a picture with the address would be

necessary. Nevertheless, it is overkill for a really simple ad-hoc

easily be grabbed manually.</p>

<h2>Generation of fake data</h2>
|
||
|
<p>To test the contact section of the site, I wanted to populate it with
|
||
|
fake data. <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/joke2k/faker">Fake-Factory</a> is an
|
||
|
amazing library that can generate fake data of almost any kind: emails,
|
||
|
association names, acronyms... It even lets you localise the results
|
||
|
(get Spanish names, for instance) and generate factories for certain
|
||
|
classes (à la Django).</p>
|
||
|
<p>But I also wanted pictures, enter <a class="reference external" href="http://lorempixel.com/">Lorem
|
||
|
Pixel</a>. With its API you can generate
|
||
|
pictures of almost any size, for different topics (e.g. nightlife,
|
||
|
people) and with a custom text. You can even use an index, so it will
|
||
|
always show the same picture.</p>
|
||
|
<p>For instance, the picture below is served through Lorem Pixel.</p>
|
||
|
<div class="figure">
|
||
|
<img alt="This picture is generated with LoremIpsum" src="http://lorempixel.com/400/200/nightlife/" />
|
||
|
<p class="caption">This picture is generated with LoremIpsum</p>

</div>
|
||
|
<p>By the way, if you only want cat pictures, take a look at
|
||
|
<a class="reference external" href="http://placekitten.com/">Placekitten</a>. And for NSFW text, there's
|
||
|
the <a class="reference external" href="http://slipsum.com/">Samuel L. Jackson Ipsum</a></p>
