Why don't you color the comments instead of displaying a number?
We tried that, but 1) it conflicted with the `gray text` coloring (although we could'be blended the colors together) and 2) we just thought it was less intrusive this way.
We didn't want to conflict with the graying of downvoted comments. :)
They get colored if it is negative or positive enough
Change the color of the entire comment, not just the percentage.
Side note: the detective in me has noted that the mystery mods somehow knew this was a Stripe hackathon project, as the original title didn't have the tag.
whodunnit?

Wow, threads like http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4180543 are amber waves of hate.
Please make it work on the user's own comments page.
Gosh, I need to make much more positive comments.
Given that Chrome and Safari extensions are "just" javascript, has anyone made a Chrome to Safari extension converter?

Doesn't work for me on Ubuntu 12.04 Chrome
Me neither on Ubuntu 12.04, Chromium 18.0.1025.151. (I'd assume it's supposed to work on Chromium as well as Chrome?) It installs without a hitch, but the comments pages are totally unmodified — no percentages or color like the screenshot.
Hm, strange, it looks okay to me on my VM - Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, Chrome v20.0.1132.47
How are you calculating percentages?
We used an open source sentiment analysis API.
This could perhaps be improved. It seems to employ a very primitive negative/positive, large/small dichotomy. I presidct that simply putting the words huge and new will give this comment a positive sentiment....
When comments like 'I'm pretty stoked about it actually.' yield a -50% sentiment, something is broken.
Which one?
text-processing.com[1] has a nice api, the bonus was that they restrict API calls on a per-IP basis. So client-side extensions work well here. :)
