The first mention I found in my incomplete dump.

Xarn doesn't use the JSON interface because it doesn't distinguish people using a tripcode from those pretending to use a tripcode.

JSON is for retards too stupid to figure out how to parse real enterprise technology, such as XML.

JSON is just a shitty imitation of SXML

Actually, the only time you need to look at the HTML version of the page is when there's an exclamation mark in the name field AND the user didn't put anything in the mail field. And even then it's possible to just download only the posts you need to confirm.

Also, my scraper archives the whole /prog/ from scratch in ~15 min. Suck that, Xarn!!

A few questions
a) Did we actually know about the json interface when Xarn wrote /prog/scrape?
b) How well does it handle the broken threads? I imagine it would probably handle them better than /prog/scrape does

a) I think we didn't.
b) Pretty well, I made sure it handles correctly everything it can find on /prog/.
=> select count(*) from prog_posts where broken = true;
 count
-------
 22013
(1 row)

=> select count(distinct thread) from prog_posts where broken = true;
 count
-------
    15
(1 row)

where broken = for example, a Haxus the Buggy the Clown.

How well do you need it to handle the broken posts? It just skips them and continues trying to parse the thread.
