Running this code would require a lot more than just the exported models. There are a large number of code and system dependencies missing.



Of course --- but without the model parameters, even stubbing those systems would be useless. My point is that while this release gives the public some information about how Twitter ranks tweets, it doesn't tell the story because huge pieces of "the algorithm" are missing. For example: the NSFW classifier "open source" release doesn't tell us anything about what Twitter considers NSFW and what it doesn't.
