Can you explain exactly how you've secured this/whether you've gotten it checked by Kison?

Psyche · Post Post #252 (ISO) » Fri Jun 08, 2018 9:11 am

When you click the link I send you, an instance of the Google Drive file I created is copied just for you and displayed within the Google Colab app. You get full agency over which cells you run and what kind of input to put into them. According to Google, the files you add to your Google Drive app or folder are stored on servers in secure data centers. Your data stored with Google is encrypted during transfer from your computer — and while it sits on Google Drive servers. This is demonstrated by the "Secure" indicator you should see next to your address bar while the notebook is open in your browser if you're using Google Chrome. The colab notebook I shared deviates from the overall security of Google Drive in just two, carefully considered ways: first, it sends a POST request to ucp.php?mode=login with your username and password included in the form to create an authenticated session with which to scrape the site. As

soon

as this session is created, the password is discarded, as it only exists within the scope of a short authentication function. Second, after scraping posts (and your avatar url) using your account, it submits the posts to IBM Cloud for generation of the personality profile. At no point while using the notebook is your private information, including your generated profile, sent anywhere else. Importantly, you can see what exactly the cells do to your input by double clicking a cell and checking out the code written inside. I understand that a bit of trust goes into deciding to use the code I've generated in this notebook; in the future, I will submit my notebooks to a code-savvy admin like Kison before sharing them to confirm for you that I've not abused that trust.

if you resize your window to one with a smaller width the plot should get small enough to screenshot

Psyche is there a way we could use a different source? I've another forum I'd rather use as it's got a bit more intimate userbase so I think it'd yield more accurate results.

Psyche · Post Post #260 (ISO) » Fri Jun 08, 2018 11:53 am

Oh, I remember this post.

If the forum is organized like ours is, then you could potentially double-click the login cell and change the "siteurl" variable in the underlying code to your site's home url. If it's not, you'll have to find a way to collect the text of your posts on that forum so that they can be put through the API.

Majiffy · Post Post #261 (ISO) » Fri Jun 08, 2018 12:09 pm

Unfortunately the code in the second section relies heavily on pulling from MS, so even changing the siteurl variable in the first section results in pulling from MS with the actual analysis. Unless I'm doing something wrong, in which case I'm going to need some kind of step-by-step how-to.

Also interesting, I tanked all the extraversion scores, and while it is true that I put on a face of extraversion but am not really one, this caught that really well!

I guess that's the problem. We don't really know what we're being compared to. Right now it's just like horoscopes. "A low 'Gregariousness' score? Well that makes sense because blahblahblah."

I don't think we're all less outgoing than 95% of the population.
