Nice! Not to be all jaded, but there’s one of these services launching per month (week?) these days. Some are free (but then usually poor quality), others cost money (usually with some resolution limited freebie or credits-on-signup). I run

Hi, I run clippingmagic.com (a SaaS to clean & prep ecommerce product shots) so this could be a great fit for us - we've talked many times about integrating with the platforms, but... A few comments & questions: 1. https:&#x2F

Only 239 households relocated from SF to Austin in the March-November 2020 time period - that’s a lot less than I would have thought?

SF centric, but there are probably a fair share of HNers who fall into the “gifted student, held back by mediocre school” camp, so the topic is hopefully of broader interest. A test-to-get-in high quality public high school is about to be c

Does the difference in metabolic pathway lead to e.g. different waste products present in the blood? I.e. could you do a blood test to detect elevated levels of fermentation-based metabolism, indicating that it might be time to do a deeper

Weird things happening when viewing on an iphone - the popup extended beyond the viewport in portrait mode, tilting to landscape caused it to collapse down to only show the button? Neat idea though, I’ve slogged through more than one walkth

I thought Ctrl-Shift-V did indeed do that? Might be app-specific.

What fraction of the 2B actually post vs “just” read & like? If it’s 1% then the moderator to writer ratio is 1:1000 instead of 1:100,000. And presumably the moderators are working full time (?) whereas the posters hopefully don’t spend

The increase in car seat requirements and sizes has probably also contributed to the shifting of consumer demand toward larger and larger vehicles. Which has a host of economic and environmental consequences beyond the number of children.

Interesting work! AI-enhanced/powered UIs could have a lot of potential. I recently posted polygrid.com and zoomstock.com which are similar in some respects and very different in others, and also got basically crickets in response, so

Also, what about false identifications? With Face/TouchId it’s authentication, not identification (as there’s only one identity associated with the device). What’s the fallback here for “twin palms”? I guess those unlucky people will h

Is the most relevant metric bandwidth, page views, or websites? They may not have the bandwidth as you point out, but they have a pretty big chunk of websites. (Obv not 100%) (That said, AWS has a lot more than “just” the TLS connection on

You can absolutely search by keyword, and that's where you usually want to start. The difference lies in what you can do after that. Regular stock photo sites usually give you an infiniscroll on your search term, then you have to click

T-SNE is pretty good. We evaluated UMAP as well but didn't get as good of a result with it, but that may have been due to bugs in the implementation.

By and large yes: T-SNE does it's best to achieve that - it's kind of tricky to take an N-dimensional space and flattening it to 2 dimensions. You inevitably get some tearing and some scatter. So they're not always next to ea

Hi! We created a new type of search engine for the top free stock photo sites. It works by taking all the images, using T-SNE to lay them out in a gigantic grid, then putting a quad-tree on top of that grid and letting you smoothly navigate
