Try "Where are we going? Dad" on YouTube. Also HelloChinese is much better than Duolingo in my opinion.

I find it strange that Postgres has features like these, but lacks bit_count, which is required for hamming distance. It's easy to write a C-Language User Defined Function, but then you can't use RDS.

The 100-200ms time I referred to was indeed a single search. The difference is, it's on a single core. Cython definitely makes the hamming distance function faster.

Why not just create an alternative that doesn't break copyright, trademark and patent law?

The implementation is trivial, for speed we use: cdef extern int __builtin_popcountll(unsigned long long) nogil dist = __builtin_popcountll(key ^ phash) It would only take a couple of minutes to fill out the rest.

Couldn't you add images>threshold to a dict/map as you iterate, rather than building a complete matrix, then iterating through that?

We store pHash'es in a database, but just quickly checking on my laptop, between 1-2ms to generate a single image pHash. IO could be significant for many images.

I use Cython (CPU) to brute force 400,000 pHash's of images. It takes somewhere between 100 and 200ms to search.

It's surprisingly easy to implement a popcount user defined function in C for postgres. It would be a problem for hosted postgres with extension restrictions though.

It was a few minutes of downtime affecting a fraction of people. The last large UK outage was 10 years ago. The uptime has a lot of 9s already, so even if they ensure this particular problem wouldn't cause downtime again, the next time

Citizen's Advice lists requiring all employees to work full time as an example of indirect sex discrimination, so by advertising part time jobs you may be protecting yourself.
