how to get the comments on social media and make it as your data?

I've proposed a title for our thesis, Movie Success Prediction through Social Media comments using Sentiment Analysis, is there a way you can get the comments on social media (twitter, Instagram, Facebook etc.) and use it for your software? like an API or any other way. is that even possible to use your software on different social media to get the comments for prediction or should i change my title and stick to one social media like Facebook or twitter only?
what's the good algorithm for this?
what programming language and framework/IDE should i use?
I've done lots of research on google and still hoping for more info here. Thank you.
Edit: I'll only use YouTube and YouTube API.
From the title of your question, it seems that the method you need to use is distant supervision. You need to retrieve data with labels you think it is proper for your task. For instance, a tweet containing #perfect hashtag would probably be a positive tweet. So, you can define set of hashtags for your task, negative, positive or even for neutral; then you can retrieve tweets by those via Twitter API. For your task, those should be for movies, therefore your data should contain movie related information in first place.
Given that you will deal with text data and you'd like to create your own dataset, it is better to start with Twitter. Its API works for your needs and it is very well-documented. The language and frameworks are upto your choice, since APIs supports many known languages as well. Personally, I'd start with python or java to quickly solve future problems easier with community support.
For a general survey of this area, you may dive into papers and resources from here:

Distant supervision could be used to create a sentiment lexicon out of millions English tweets by using sets of negative and positive hashtags as well. You may take a look at Chapter 5 of this thesis ( https://spectrum.library.concordia.ca/980377/1/Ozdemir_MCompSc_F2015.pdf ), this may also give a good insight for your thesis, too.
Hope this helps.

FourSquare vs. Google Places vs. Yelp API

I am trying to create an app that will help users find restaurants/movie theaters/malls/etc. to hang out based on ratings and distance. Other than just the place itself, I would also like to know more detailed information about the place. For example, if I were to look for parks, I would also like to know if theres a basketball or tennis court there. Ratings and popularity would also be an important aspect to prioritize suggestions.
After looking through all three of the APIs, I could not really find any substantial differences other than their search limits. Could anyone really differentiate each API for me? Maybe even recommend one based on my specific need?
Thanks!
The Foursquare API would fit this use case perfectly because you can supply very specific filters through the API. Also, they have extensive coverage around the world, unlike Google or Yelp.
I would check out the venues/explore endpoint and use a categoryId of Parks. You can use a query parameter of "basketball" or "tennis" to find parks that have courts for these.

UHF-Rfid in day-today cards

I am a total newbie to rfid-tech. Well, i know the basics, but i guess asking this here might be cheaper than buy something to see it doesent work :-).
I'm wondering if any rfid day-to-day cards like banking, time- and/or accesscontrol, transportation etc. are uhf-cards and able to communicate on a long(er) distance (meters instead of centimeters)?
I'd like to count people based on rfid-mesurments, the antenna would be at the entrance of a room (and yes, im aware that one could own more than one :))
Thank you in advance
Chris
Most day to day cards are not UHF-based (yet). They typically would be HF RFID, providing only short reading distances. If you would look for UHF labels, those are mainly used in apparel retail and vehicle identification use cases. Here the long reading distance is a requirement. UHF RFID is just a more recent and newer technology compared to HF, and not that common yet.

Voting or rating post and member ranking in phpbb3

I chose phpbb3 for my forum. I want my user's post to be voted/rated by other members of my forum and also a user's reputation(ranking) should be changed according to his interaction with posts. Are there any built in features for these two tasks? If not what is the possibility to change the code according to my requirements? Any help is appreciated.
There aren't any built in features for reputation and ranking.
However, phpbb has a large database of user-built modifications which will definitely have what you need. See the mod database: http://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/modifications-1/?from=submenu&sid=b3bee6baf8411639512659054d6521c6
As for coding it yourself, you're certainly welcome to as far as licensing goes; but there will definitely be an existing modification which should suit your needs.

What technique would you use to find similar people with the same social profile as you? (computer science)

Let's take your Facebook social profile. There are interests, activities, movies, music, and tv-shows.
You have these 5 things, in text, of course. Given your social profile and 10 other people, we want to find overlaps, similarity, etc. What method would you use to do it?
I"m guessing it would be best to use vectors and Euclidean/Pearson correlation? That's my approach. What's yours?
Please use a visual-style to answer this question, including examples and/or drawing out the vectors.
The December ACM student magazine discussed this area.
