Well I do think that I'm in way over my head.
It might be worth it for me to take some python classes for the next phase of groundings in the States. Because there is no how to for hivesql or applications that are for the average hive user who barely remembers how to use DOS like myself.

There are various apps that can run queries. Can even do it from Excel. Python is not essential just to get some data. Some articles here. There are plenty of tutorials online about the basics of SQL. See what you can find and I will help where I can.

Yeah all of this is not worth my time to learn unless I pay for it and dedicate time for it. Which I can see doing in the future but this is all too much.
Im not into it at all. Takes away my time from Hive and it is not made for people like me. Its cool. Maybe ill end up running into peoples who love doing it or offer the service to do data management with sql.
As it is I'd rather make comments especially since most people can careless about data unless they are getting upvotes and paying for them. Im just giving them out for free and trying to comment with them.

Well if you have some ideas of the sort of data you want to find I can try to come up with a query. I could learn something from doing that.

They would hopefully be simple ones that can be expanded upon. No rush... Im doing my daily comment marathon but also have too do errands soon. Ill get back to ya!

I ultimately want to maximize curation and apply HBI shares to people we vote on that isn't having high post payouts/curation I would love to simply see who the @dynamicsteemians is voting on, frequency of such votes for each author, curation gained on average (weekly), for each author(using the @dynamicsteemians curation rewards). I dont know I gotta organize my thoughts about it.

Something like that
