|
| | ## 🔍 Data Structure |
| |
|
| | ```python |
| | { |
| | "url": "string", # Full article URL |
| | "title": "string", # Article title |
| | "author": "string", # Author name (mostly Michael Larabel) |
| | "content": "string", # Full article text with original formatting |
| | "comments_count": int, # Number of comments (engagement metric) |
| | "scraped_at": float # UNIX timestamp of collection |
| | } |
| | ``` |
| |
|
| | ## 🛠️ Quick Start |
| |
|
| | ```python |
| | from datasets import load_dataset |
| | |
| | dataset = load_dataset("nick007x/phoronix-articles") |
| | |
| | # Explore the treasure trove |
| | print(f"Loaded {len(dataset['train'])} articles spanning decades of tech journalism!") |
| | print(dataset['train'][0]) # Peek at the first article |
| | ``` |
| |
|
| | ## 🚀 Advanced Usage |
| |
|
| | ```python |
| | # Analyze hardware coverage trends |
| | dataset = load_dataset("nick007x/phoronix-articles", split="train") |
| | |
| | hardware_articles = [article for article in dataset |
| | if any(term in article['title'].lower() |
| | for term in ['amd', 'intel', 'nvidia', 'arm', 'radeon'])] |
| | |
| | print(f"Found {len(hardware_articles)} hardware-focused articles") |
| | |
| | # Track author contributions |
| | from collections import Counter |
| | authors = Counter(article['author'] for article in dataset) |
| | print(f"Top authors: {authors.most_common(5)}") |
| | |
| | # Temporal analysis |
| | import datetime |
| | dates = [datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(article['scraped_at']).year |
| | for article in dataset] |
| | print(f"Coverage from {min(dates)} to {max(dates)}") |
| | ``` |
