Well, I don’t know if Rails is really a ghetto. But ruby-talk appears
to be turning into a loony bin!

To be more precise, it seems that Giles has blundered into a secret
passageway into the brain of Z.S., and then tricked Z.S. to enter that
passageway himself.[1]
It’s not clear at this point exactly what kind of passageway Jeremy has
entered.

Tangent: city ITA Software has a really cool interview question: come
up with maximum number of combinations of movie titles, e.g., “The
Unbearable Lightness Of Being John Malkovich.”

As such things go, immediately after I posted I noticed some glitches
in the output that I had overlooked…
Changing the last line to the following produces the intended output.
p
x.tr(‘M’,‘Z’).gsub(/arklar/,‘edhsaw’).gsub(/\bme/,‘ze’).scan(/Ze\w+,\s+th.*,\s+or\s+z\w+s./m)

No, the whole point is to do it in Ruby.
Can this get any more off topic?
OK, do it in Ruby, and then tell everybody you’re going to kick their
ass.

Yes. Unless we make it the next ruby quiz to query imdb.com

Well, it shouldn’t be too hard in principle – they have complete pages
of just movie titles broken up by year and initial letter.
(Where initial is one of ‘A’…‘Z’ or ‘*’)
The main difficulty is normalizing titles where initial articles have
been moved to the end, and doing so in a language-insensitive way.
However, I think the nice people at imdb.com would frown on someone (let
alone lots of someones) mining hundreds of thousands of movie titles
this
way, so I was wondering if there was a reasonably large corpus of titles
precompiled somewhere which we could use instead.
Of course, we could always just write the scripts anyway and pretend
we had a more accessible database of titles to work from.

Is there a database of movie titles readily available somewhere?

it’s actually in their terms of use:
though here’s some ruby code for doing it:

i’m not sure of the contents exactly but what about the dataset from
the netflix prize?
