B894 - When Preparation Meets Opportunity

Visible to anyone in the world

Overview

The scraper.py has everything you'll need if you wish to make one of your own web scrapers. It not only forms the basis of a Python-based HTML app, which I hope will enable me to conduct in-depth sentiment analysis (text analysis) on the Impact in Business Recruitment Blog, but it will also be a great way to break down large bits of information held in the Blog, so I can use this information in R at a later date. The only other way was a pull from the Cygwin terminal, which I have tried before, but unfortunately was not capable of completing the task of formally organising the language from press releases comprehensively.

I really wasn't thinking about the direction of the MSc in HRM Dissertation until after I had designed and developed my new personal AI web application. It was only after realising that the GitHub interface essentially serves as a Python 3.5 Alpha 4 feature testing ground. Alpha 4 is released on January 13th 2026, and I'm well and truly ready for the update. The Gemini chat web app, which I have codenamed the 'Hench Sypro' app in Heroku, is in its version 2.5.9 Beta 1 iteration and has been deployed using the Cloudflare platform. I asked the chatbot a few questions, and I must say, it's slightly less accurate than OpenAI's product and is somewhat less humorous in its delivery, also.

Where to now?

I'm also starting what us millenials call a Vlog. It's a series of videos which show my journey through the B894 programme on the MSc - from start to finish, or at least from midway to finish. These are 1-2 minute study-related recorded videos, which I will likely be sharing on TikTok. I will be ensuring the data collection aspect is well organised before pursuing anything tangible for analysis in R's environment.
