Doesn't work for me. I get "User name not found. Might be a temporary outage. Sorry."

Did someone type in one of the karma brothers, tptacek or patio11? That might be what crashed the site.

I'd be interested to see the analysis it returns for a prolific poster.

The sentiment analysis is on a comment by comment basis -- see screen shot. So no overall personality assessment. We only analyze and display the top ~10 comments from a given user.

Dead for me too ... "User name not found. Might be a temporary outage. Sorry."

The screenshot is nice though.

Sorry for the outage. Not sure what's going on right now -- our server can't get the HN site. Here's a screen shot to give you an idea:

We put in a fix. Looks like it's working again. But there might be some continued instability. Please let us know if you find a persistent problem. Thanks!

Awesome. I had no idea I how I felt about poverty (when did I comment on that?)

Why would you comment on this like this... when you worked on it?

Looks like we overwhelmed the HN server trying to service 1500 queries in the last 3 hours. We are getting it sorted out. Thanks for your patience.

I am not sure it's all there but it's definitely funny.
