What I am supposed to write in this question about fuzzy logic?
There are 2 questions commonly asked(rarely though) in my exams.

1) Explain about mamdani fuzzy inference method with example.

2) explain fuzzy inference with suitable example.

Now I am self studying. I have 4 books with me, but none of them have this content. IDK why tho..There are other details but not about thse 2 questions. Can you just guide me what I am supposed to write here? A framework about what to write would be more than helpful to me.

Ask HN: Do I work on a project that people love, but I have little interest?
http://www.quora.com/Should-you-work-on-an-project-that-people-love-but-in-an-area-you-have-little-interest-in
I've been working on a project with a talented team for 3 months. User testing has revealed that we solve some crucial problems in the space and people love our service.

But this is by accident.

Pro: We built something cool and people love it.
- That's why we've spent so much time on it. That's why some of our team withdrew from college.

Con: We have very little interest in the space.

Question - do we continue working on this?
Ask HN: Good resources for determining early-stage pre-money valuation
I'm curious about what other databases or resources might be available for getting real-world market data on startup valuations.

There's this, which is excellent:

... but it's missing a parameter to explore by size of funds raised, which makes it of dubious usefulness for determining what the market is paying.

The top 5 selling Super Nintendo games of all time
http://www.geekgamerz.com/the-top-5-selling-snes-games/
So we have another addition to our “Top 5 Selling” series. Today we bring you the top 5 selling SNES games. The SNES or Super Nintendo Entertainment System was released by Nintendo between 1990 and 1993, depending on whereabouts in the world you were back then. The console took on various names such as the “Super Famicon” in Japan and in Korea the “Super Comboy“, but its most widely known as the SNES. The appearance also differed depending on the region.

Show HN: A bespoke betting exchange 
http://www.bespokebets.com 
This has been my side project: a betting exchange that allows for bespoke bets and odds setting.

The betting exchange format has really caught on in Europe as it enables users to trade a market (by backing or laying a specific outcome). I'm hoping this is interesting for people who like to 'make markets' on events (basically challenge friends/colleagues to make odds on events that are relevant to them).

This is a MVP, so no real money/BTC functionality.

Show HN: HckrWeb, elegant readable HN sorted chronologically
https://hw.leftium.com/
HckrWeb combines HackerWeb's elegant readability with hckerweb's chronological list of HN homepage items.

Originally just a mashup of cheeaun's HackerWeb and wvl's hckr news. I've updated it so I can read Hacker News just the way I want to.

## Major changes/innovations:

- Default news feed is from hckrnews.com (all items that have made the HN homepage, sorted by date).

- Direct "More..." links (no scrolling required) to dates as far back as June 9, 2010 (No hckernews data beyond this date: https://hw.leftium.com/#/date/2010.06.09)

- https://hw.leftium.com/#/show combines HN's show and shownew pages. (Removes "did I already read up to here?" confusion when "Show HN" items are in both lists.)

- https://hw.leftium.com/#/ask shows the first two pages of Ask HN

- Displays last time you visited.

- Renders individual comment items. This is useful for sharing, or reading a child comment tree.

- "Pagedown" icon to scroll past items you've already seen. Tapping an item's icon scrolls it to the very top. More precise and less finger movement!

- [dead] items show more info and link directly to news.ycominbinator.com for viewing (if logged in).
Flipkart-Amazon's next shopping in India?
http://logicallogo.com/2011/09/16/emerging-e-commerce-can-flipkart-become-the-amazon-of-india/
Industry is still waiting for Amazon to take a ticket to India. It would be stupidity to ignore the world’s biggest player of portal selling segment. With hands on technology, huge working liquidity, and the longest experience of being in industry Amazon is the whale hiding in swimming pool. May be it can enter with M&A (merger & acquisition) strategy. It would be easier to say that Amazon may add Flipkart to its shopping cart.

Show HN: A.I. Runner with Stable Diffusion
https://capsizegames.itch.io/ai-runner
Hi,

I have been here a few times showing off tools that I have created for Stable Diffusion. This is my latest creation, A.I. Runner.

It is an application which allows you to run Stable Diffusion locally. It runs on GPU or CPU (slower), allows you to watch the images generate in real-time, offers a NSFW checkbox, and installs all requirements including the model. You can also go from cold start to generating images in seconds.

I have many more features in the works including the ability to run more models (thus the more generic branding).

Cropping Images in PHP Based on their Entropy
http://codegeekz.com/cropping-images-entrop/
The need to resize and crop images in order to create thumbs, is a very common scenario for most websites. For example a blog like this one uses images in the content of the posts, images which at some point are used to create a thumb for the homepage. In most cases, the thumb’s dimensions are not dynamic but are static throughout the website in order to better fit the template. This however creates a major problem when we try to automatically resize and crop our images in the desired dimensions.
Ask HN: Why isn't there a leader in collaboration space?
Dropbox, box.net, google doc and google cloud connect, oneNote, etherPad, various IM client, Lotus Notes,etc

All the above companies complete in the collaboration space. Their service is to empower people or team that are scattered over several locations to communicate more effectively and work together. The companies above provide different variations of collaboration solution, share documents in the cloud, some have version controls, instant messaging, etc

It's safe to say the above companies are all very successful but why isn't there a leader(s) in the space? I've use all of them and somehow something is still missing in each of the solutions provided and I can't seem to pinpoint it.

HN, discuss what's the strength and short coming for each or all the above solution and what's your perfect collaboration tool should provide? Is there a leader in this space I did not identify?

What type of business should I file for? What other advice do you have?

Show HN: FeedbackForms.io – Convert Positive Experiences to Public Reviews
https://www.feedbackforms.io
I built FeedbackForms.io because I wanted a way to filter customers who had a positive experience before asking them for a public review -- and I wanted negative feedback to go directly to me.

The concept is simple: find out in as few questions as possible if the customer had a positive experience, then give them a branched exit: positive outcomes are asked for a public review. Negative outcomes get a text form asking what they didn't like, along with the options to leave an email or phone.

There's tons of free and paid survey platforms out there... here's why I didn't want to use them.
Paid:
1. Too Expensive: without naming names, I didn't want to "monkey" around (lol) with something for $40 / Month. For reference, this is more than most no-code website builders.
2. Clunky Features and annoying upsell limitations/solicitations: Features are typically revealed after you can't use them -- so you've fully built you form -- then you go to publish and they want $40 / Month.

Free - I also tried some free services.
1.Time consuming: you can make the free stuff do what you want, but it just feels like there's more contortion of the product than I want to do.
2. Weird looking URLs: This is something that probably sounds picky, but I hate long, machine generated URLs. I know you can redirect w/ a custom domain, but a feedback survey shouldn't warrant a domain purchase. I wanted a clean-looking URL that was easy to remember. Form Routes are structured this way: https://www.feedbackforma.io/your-organization/your-form-nam...

Here's a 1-question survey I made for the first release:
https://www.feedbackforms.io/feedback-forms/launch-feedback

Like any URL, you can easily plug this into any CRM automation software you are using.

So what's the catch? None, right now signups are open and free with unlimited questions and unlimited surveys. I am moving to a (reasonably priced) paid model before the end of the year -- probably $10 / month. Anyone who signs up before this will be able to keep using the product for free through 12/31/22.

Anyway, hope you enjoy the product: Signups are open, feedback is appreciated.

Show HN: Funny/Joke App. Worst Idea Ever.
http://www.lootitooti.com/
From the about Tab:

With lootitooti.com, we made one of the goofiest ideas come to life.

My bro and I get real goofy when we play video games. One day I was playing League of Legends with my bro and humming Game of Thrones theme(Tana Nana). My bro started humming the same song with a different lyrics (looti tooti), and we kept going. I decided we can turn this into an app, and troll a bit on humanity. We enjoy this absolutely goofy stuff, maybe someone else will like it too.

If we get good response (highly unlikely), We can turn this into a platform where people would be able to create funny variations of their favorite tunes.

We want to stay anonnymous for now :P, but if you have anything to say, please feel free to email primac.apps@gmail.com

Thanks for checking out Looti Tooti. I'm sure now you can get through with the rest of your day!
