Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In this chapter, Hadley considers the unofficial responses that appeared on Twitter in the days following Thatcher’s death. These responses are located within the context of recent research concerning negativity on social media. These responses were often dismissed as vile and hateful by the mainstream media. Hadley seeks to counter this trend by drawing out the connections between these responses and official responses in the shared focus on the person of Thatcher and issues gender and nationalism. This chapter also considers the youth response to Thatcher’s death which was often de-legitimised in the official public discourse suggesting that many responses used Thatcher’s death as a way to comment on the current political situation. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
