Be the change you want to see..

There is nothing stopping you from gathering that data and publishing it every week.

I will point out that the absence of any messages from a community is not an indication of the end of that community, nor am I aware of any process to "scrub" a community, unless you're referring to the act of an instance administrator deleting a community on their own instance.

And what is their success rate?

Using the idea of six degrees of separation to get to any person on the planet, I came up with the idea to use a word cloud that would represent the top N words in all documents.

When you click on a word, (say "alpha") the resulting word cloud would represent the top N words for all the documents with "alpha" in it.

As you click, bravo -> charlie, etc. the list of documents gets smaller and smaller, until just your required document remains.

This has several advantages, you don't need to distinguish between words and numbers or need to "understand" the meaning of a word or interpret the user intent.

More importantly, the user doesn't need to know the relevant words or vocabulary, since they're all represented in the UI.

Enhancements include allowing for negative words, as-in, exclude documents with this word.

Yeah, same kind of process in Oz.

AFAIK, it was triggered by doing an annual event called GovHack where people were encouraged to create "hacks" with government data. It included software developers like me, data mentors from many different government departments, people with an interest and several departments with questions.

Darwinian selection in progress ..

Make sure that it's the one you think it is.

Also, how did you "remove" it? Just yank the cable, or something a little more refined like unmount or eject?

Rule 34 applies..

It's possible that the warnings against any such activities came from individuals with an ulterior motive..

Australia doesn't even have that many officers in total, "only" 65,000.

However, it turns out that the USA appears to have less police officers per head of population when compared to Australia.

I wonder if the need for speed that Netflix requires has any benchmarks that compares FreeBSD with things like OpenBSD, Debian, Ubuntu, RHEL and SUSE.

In the same way as if your Windows Server on bare metal doesn't start after an update, via the console.

Interestingly, that does not appear to have been discovered by the local media.

I also checked the Christchurch Call website which clearly shows Xitter as a member of the community that agreed to:

"Take transparent, specific measures seeking to prevent the upload of terrorist and violent extremist content and to prevent its dissemination on social media and similar content-sharing services, including its immediate and permanent removal, without prejudice to law enforcement and user appeals requirements, in a manner consistent with human rights and fundamental freedoms. Cooperative measures to achieve these outcomes may include technology development, the expansion and use of shared databases of hashes and URLs, and effective notice and takedown procedures."
