Show HN: A better Reddit search engine to find menswear recommendations
Hey HN Community!

We built this simple community search tool that basically allows people to search through thousands of past Reddit threads and tens of thousands of recommendations using tags. It mostly covers a few bigger subreddits like r/BIFL, r/MFA, r/AskMen, r/SkincareAddiction but along the way, I expanded it to include other smaller subreddits too. In addition to filtering by category, power users can also search by

-Body Fit (big thigh, long torso)

-Occupation (work in retail, teacher, doctor)

-Age (18-24, 25-35), Size (height, weight)

-Brand comparison (similar to: X)

-Use (suitable for wedding, everyday wear)

-Location (available in UK, use in Northeast US)

-Mood/Style (minimalist, vintage, retro)

Check it out. Buy fewer, buy better. Happy Earth Day!
This could work well for PCB trace routing optimization too? Handling multiple layers might be bit difficult, but maybe not insurmountable?
This is untrue. Xcode is available in the App Store on Mac. You don't go to the website to get it.
> Here's 50 gigabytes of neural net weights.

.. from few months ago. Weights change daily, most likely updated by another NN.

I guess it's nice that lawmakers understand that at some point these companies used algorithms to search or sort stuff, but industry has already moved to another level. We might be able to explain specific result of neural networks (Shapely values or something like that), but the actual algorithm (=NN)... no way.
EU is becoming more like an authoritarian state. They put constraints on companies but allow governments to have full control and surveillance over their citizens. It's so hopocrit
Theoretically, it should be equivalent to standing directly in front of a space heater in the worst case (if the human absorbs 100% of the microwaves).
All the big guys roughly know what kind of pipelines every one has , they hire from each other etc.

The level of disclosure is not going to break a lot of competitive advantage.

basically need to say what input sources and feedback they use and modular blocks on what different steps go into the pipe, nobody is asking them to expose the actual weights of billion parameter ml model they all probably have .

Even if hypothetically they did expose that level of detail it is useless for regulators as they don’t have resources to run the model , and testing a model for side effects in depth is hard .
It's not the lack of namespaces that causes people to reinvent them. Using or not using namespaces is a choice you take. With XMPP it's 100% dictated by the XML mindset. There is NO reason for

<starttls xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-tls"><required/></starttls>

to specify urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-tls other than formalism/a yearn for bloat. There would never be a name collision without this ns and it convenes no useful info.

There's no reason for acks to specify urn:xmpp:sm:3 each time. Yes, here it at least specifies the version, but that's already negotiated when enabling acks anyway.

There's no reason why <query xmlns='urn:xmpp:mam:2' .../> can't be <mam_query .../>.

Namespaces are a choice, sometimes (e.g. in programming languages) reasonable, sometimes (in a serialization format for passing small texts around) not so much.

It is dictated by a mindset, the XML mindset in case of XMPP, and in the case you bring up apparently by the Java mindset, not to say there's much of a difference between the two
I'm well outside the US (Eastern Europe) and have never needed WhatsApp. I can talk with all the people I know over Google Hangouts or Facebook Messenger. Perhaps it's also an age thing? I guess the youngsters use WhatsApp.
Why not use the tgz file directly?
You can potentially get sponsorship (but the chips4makers web site seems to be down) https://nlnet.nl/project/Chips4Makers/

Long, long ago, UK academics could get fabrication done at the Rutherford lab, as I saw on a visit, presumably research council-funded but I don't know what the arrangements actually were.
There's no double standard. The library is part of the public school. Therefore it is subject to the government's decision on what goes in it.

If you are inferring that I am advocating that government ban books on X and supply books on Y in the school libraries, that is a serious misreading.
> it's driving a Ferrari within a city.

Given that this article is about Zurich... that's a very apt analogy.
Geocentricism and flag-earthism are very different things.

Looking up at the night sky in Europe, you’ll see a dome shaped sky, spinning nightly around a still point. The planets will “wander” not going with the general rotation.

The appearance of the sky suggests that both earth and sky are spherical.

If they earth were flat, we’d see the entire “dome of night” - all the northern constellations - all of the night. They wouldn’t appear and disappear over the course of 24 hours.

Simple, naked-eye, stargazing can easily disprove the flat earth theory.

Geocentrism is a bunch harder problem to solve. Naked eye star gazing strongly reinforces a geocentric universe.

In fact, naval officers are thought celestial navigation using geocentric cosmology, because the additional accuracy of heliocentrism isnt helpful when stranded on life raft. No naval office will have sextant and accurate clock, but not a gps device.

So flat earth defies common sense and plain sight observations. Heliocentricity is much more complicated.

If I recall, it’s impossible to prove heliocentricity with the naked eye- telescopes are necessary.
Yeah it's horrible. I have had contact with half a dozen people with severe DID because of extreme trauma experienced before the age of four. DeBoer is a great writer and he's dead right about the effects of social media on all this but he is completely wrong about the literature. The so-called Greenbaum Speech, alternatively called
"Hypnosis in MPD", is just one example of the consistent body of work out there showing that it is very real.
> iMessage’s encryption (though I stand by that it is gimmicky to only offer for iPhones, and I despise that)

What security guarantees would iMessage have if it ran on arbitrary hardware instead of only iPhones and Macs? To some people, that's important, not a gimmick. Totally fine for you to have your own opinion about it, but it's probably a good idea to be able to think about why people might disagree.
The binary still runs, but can you re-compile from source?
I'd love to hear how you use the tool and feedback on how we can make it better to help you find menswear recommendation threads 10x faster on reddit! You can drop us feedback here or at https://pqjrtimujsb.typeform.com/to/SMDbOLkk

p.s. thanks everyone for flagging on the previous post that the website was down. We fixed it and decided to repost
I have binaries from early 90s (small utilities) that I wrote back then and still use today, and they do not need changed because they are truly done and bug-free. Thank Microsoft and IBM (PC) for backwards compatibility, it's a good thing I made the choice back then to stay away from Apple. Fuck forced obolescence and this idiotic notion that constant change is somehow necessary. It's only necessary to feed out-of-control corporate greed.

If Apple had its way with everything, we'd probably all have to buy new appliances and rewire/rebuild our houses every few years because nothing would be compatible with anything older. Do not want.
Mildly interesting article until he starts whining about "lefties" and straw-manning what he thinks their reactions to all of this will be.

To which: No. Humoring people who make up mental disorders for social media clout is not "woke." "Woke" is being aware that people with mental disorders exist and that our society should be accepting and inclusive.
This is oddly specific. Perhaps to your company or industry.

But is in no way a standard across companies.

Sounds horrific to be honest. Having to BS employees on the fly?
It's not too weird that people move to places where they have opportunities, and individuals will have different opportunities in different places.

After university, I moved to a new city where a bunch of my friends had moved after graduating as well. For a couple of years things were really good, but it was a city with a crazy high housing and rental market and my salary was not really keeping up. I also wasn't having any luck dating and just felt out of place in the city.

I made the hard decision to move away for a cheaper housing market and better salaries, even if it meant leaving my friends behind. It's been five years since then and I have a longterm girlfriend, a house of my own, and double the salary I was making. The only thing missing is my friends, and I haven't made many friends here. Certainly not a consistent group to gather with for board games or whatnot.

I keep in touch with some of my old friends online but mostly don't. I think something this article doesn't mention is that sometimes people are just friends because of proximity, out of convenience. It's the ones who don't live nearby but you still want to visit and spend time with, those are your real friends.
Dependency checking?
> and ask about the management and leadership philosophy when you interview!

In theory, I agree. The reality is these orgs are crap for a reason...they drink too much of their own Kool Aid, they don't realize they have blindspots, etc.

The point being, good luck getting a transparent and honest answer as that's the antithesis of their philosophy.
> Look at how uncomfortable they are with such an innocuous request.

Ah, but it's not innocuous, and everyone knows it. I assume you know it -- when you watched that clip of the senator, did you really think he had forgotten what the definition of "woman" was?

The question he was really asking was along the lines of "is it the health department's official stance that trans woman are woman and should be treated as such under the law?"

Although actually he wasn't really asking that either, he was signaling to his supporters that he does not think that trans woman are women, and he was attempting to embarrass his political opposition so he and his allies could talk about the lunacy of the woke left or whatever and how they can't even define what a woman is.

I can forgive people for not wanting to play along.

Although, I can't forgive people for not having an answer ready; that question is being used as a "gotcha" more and more frequently.
> It uses Gecko rather than Blink or WebKit if that's what your question is asking.

By not using Firefox, you remove the funds from the WebKit development. And it costs millions. If LibreWolf doesn't present itself as Firefox, it also decreases the visible Firefox usage, helping the duopoly.

It asked me for a model, so I naturally thought of female models and cars, decided upon "911" and get:
"911 is a dataset for 9/11 related tasks, including predicting the location of the first plane crash, the location of the second plane crash, and the location of the towers."

Thats not what I had in mind so it still needs a bit of work I think or at least the questions do. ;-)
I enjoy reading a lot. However I do not really have complicated imagery in my mind when I do.

Since learning of aphantasia I've had several moments when I am at the edge of falling asleep where I can see clear visual images. I do not have control over the images and they usually relate to something that happened during the day. It's fascinating to see as I usually can't visualize almost anything - the way I would describe it is that I can "talk" about what I see in my mind, kind of like I have a text-based game in my mind and when I am visualizing, I am describing what I want to see, not what I am seeing. There are no details that I notice without consciously bringing in.
Branding others as being part of a radical out-group helps you feel secure in your decisions.

I had a conversation with two people recently who got defensive at the idea that controlling the software in your phone should be the norm. As if criticizing Apple's approach to free/libre software is an attack on them as an identity.
Nix has been perfect in this respect, giving full control over how you want things installed. The line between distro maintainers and users is completely blurred - you can take as little or as much control over the installation and configuration of any particular package or service that you want.
I think Google was in a different position than Apple in the case of messaging client. Apple has total control of the text message app on the iPhone, or Google does not. Google had to appease Samsung and likely some other cell phone makers to allow them to make their own RCS compatible app. Google took RCS and created universal profiles, and I think wants to get Apple on board with it so that there is a shared protocol between vendors.

Apple went to full proprietary stack that no one else can use, while Google went the more open protocol. Open protocols like this always tend to have a bit more headache, and we're seeing that with RCS. Especially when some of the players are cell service providers.

If the EU open protocol legislation ever pans out, I wonder how that would impact iMessage and RCS.
I've not eaten at an Olive Garden in years. No idea where to live, but in the suburb I live in there are countless family-owned restaurants with cuisine from all corners of the world.

Btw, having Uber Eats bring you your food does fuck all for your emissions. In fact, it could increase them (depending on where the driver started at their destination afterwards).
My portfolio with foreign value stocks and gold and silver mining stocks, plus oil companies is doing great. I am up by more than 10%. This is just the beginning for them.

My financial advisor who manages the vast majority of my wealth is down 2% in comparison. I'm close to pulling my money because he's extremely anti commodities and I had to yell at him to invest my money into mining companies because he thinks it's better to just hold cash. Meanwhile my networth disappears. Don't use a financial advisor would be my advice to you and do your own research.
I pay £10/3 months plus £200-300 every 4 years for a phone.
“Doubled” from rock bottom. The government flooded the zone with cash to keep the economy alive. Hell, I’m paying a 2.25% interest rate on my home.

People are running around like chickens about inflation this and inflation that. The only meaningful metric is gas prices.
I use an iPhone with no Apple services. My computers are all Linux, except for my wife’s Mac. No complaints or problems.
Amusing anecdote. My girlfriend has an accounting degree in the Ozarks and has had trouble getting work related to it.
You can also just check the source I've linked?
On the photo of the Moskva I can't really see a missile impact.
> In fact in the free and open world of Linux, backwards compatibility is even worse…

I have linux binaries from 2001 that still work fine on recent Linux kernels.
Both Nominal and PPP are out of whack if you are looking to learn about conditions on the ground. GDP measures the production of a certain country (and it's a very bad metric at that). Some countries are wealthy because its people make money from foreign sources. This is usually displayed by a high and chronic trade deficit.

That means you can have two countries with comparable GDP per-capita, where one of them have a more affluent population and able to pay higher prices.
Microsoft is a trillion dollar company with experience working on Chromium and browsers. They have the talent and resources to run/take over chrome.

If Google makes a misstep, it wouldn't take too much effort for Microsoft to run a hostile fork and capture a massive user base. They already are the 2nd most popular browser.

As it is, they have nullified Google's anti-competitive nonsense of using the browser as a way to manipulate markets.

Granted as a Firefox user, I conceded your point to how to affects open standards. Frankly though, that has already been long tarnished by Google anyway.
Being raised USA centric and mostly hearing the dogma, I always appreciate hearing stories from the other side. The difference of opinion, even when I don't agree, is refreshing.
Re: Upgradeable contracts, there is often some governance method that removes the power from just one person, but there's usually also a time-delay, so that in theory at least, users of the contract can see that an upgrade has happened and remove their interaction with it if they don't like the new contract.

This is quite different from having money in a bank where policy changes and government seizures or freezes may happen without warning.

Sorry my mistake. I missed that. I was only thinking of the utility of publishing to an external source as a means of verifying history.

You are correct.
Yep engineering the new network, pulling permits, hiring the contractor, buying new equipment/lines all cost $$$$$$
You're spot on. The only way to "win" as a manager is by being a sycophant to the director or VP above you. Loyalty is how you get promoted. So your job is to make sure your boss or their boss is never wrong, even when they really, really are.
I wonder what happens when rates return to more historical territory?

Perhaps we’ll adopt shrimp marketing. “Mortgage rates are now jumbo collassal!”
> how do you prove that you can spend the received funds?

You prove it by producing a partial signature for the transaction (a transaction essentially requires a multisig by both sender and receiver).

> And if I accidentally send it twice

You couldn't send it twice because the transaction consumes an input utxo. Paying twice would require two different transactions with two different multisignatures.
I prefer my Samsung Android phone over an iPhone...but I have an iPad. I had an iPhone 2 generations ago.

My wife has an iPhone so I'm fairly in the loop on the pros/cons.

I also have some Android tablets laying around and know how poor they perform.

I wonder how much the pandemic has influenced these published numbers. I don't think they can differentiate someone download app from an iPhone vs iPad? All the remote learning has had students get tablets and I personally woulda have picked up an iPad...they do have the iPad pricing and features tailored with schools in mind.
I get people don't like snaps but adding a third-party repository with root access to your computer is not doing anyone any favors.

Even if it is run by a trusted community member a PPA will never have the guarantees of the packages in the distro.
Self-interpretations can't really be right or wrong. Science can't tell you how you should see yourself.

That said, there are self-interpretations that seem pretty self-destructive, and seeing yourself as having multiple identities seems like one.
space based solar probably works fine outside the atmosphere, but any space based "power beaming" system would need to contend with the entire thickness of the atmosphere for path loss.

> Imagine being able to deploy energy anywhere on Earth and not have to setup a logistics chain to facilitate it.

theoretical setups for receiver arrays for space based solar power beamed over microwave are very large, if you're going to go to the trouble to erect a big receiving array somewhere in an empty piece of land, you might as well just build a large ground mount photovoltaic system based on commodity 72-cell monocrystalline Si 400W rated panels.
This is why I love and still use Debian.

Debian 7 was the first Linux distro that just worked on my old PC. Believe it or not, only Debian had no screen flicker on my old NVIDIA GeForce MX 440.

Plus, it was the only distro in 2013th that had a non-free driver for that card (96-something-legacy). Imagine how old that card is when they considered it legacy in Debian 7.
Of course there is the option of moving away from Ubuntu

Canonical did good work with Ubuntu, bringing the first very good desktop distribution that was usable from a mass audience.

But time has moved on, and Canonical has moved on, too. Snap makes a of of sense for a lot of purposes. But for geeks and their desktops, not so much. Canonical is no longer interested in us.

A breakdown of a relationship is always stressful, but in this case we have just grown apart, and now we both need change.

I wish Canonical all the best in their pursuit of profits in cloud software and systems, and in the IoT world (where snaps are ideal).

I am in another relationship now. We have both moved on

This, x100. Most people would know of overclocking but not undervolting, with the irony being that the latter can be far more useful for the average user.

For example, I have a stock air cooled Nvidia GPU. Standard overclocking doesn't get me much because I get temp throttled. However undervolting, i.e., you boost clocks at lower voltages while not at higher voltages, leads to higher sustained clocks with _similar_ power/temps.

This is a consequence of power generally being linearly related to frequency and super linearly (even quadratically) to voltage.
Couldn't the SO run their own business as well?
And implementing Sign in with Apple in Unity is one of the worst experience in my career that I dedicated a blog post talking about:

- Native Sign in with Apple button not working in Unity
- Official Sign in with Apple plugin provided by Unity also not working
- Hooked up API with help from GitHub and created Sign in with Apple button by myself ended up getting `4.0 Design` rejection without explanation
- Trying crazily to contact Apple reviewer for weeks only to find out you have to use system font on that button
- Unity cannot support new Thai system font after iOS 13 and they mark it won’t fix
- Ended up building a native sample app and screenshot Sign in with Apple button from it in 12 different languages into PNGs and ask the my designer co-worker to remove background for me to import them into Unity
- After all these the update is finally accepted by App Store
- Casually downloaded games by other companies a week later, saw a totally malformed Sign in with Apple button not being nitpicked by reviewer and just went live like that
Hey...this was just me sharing a list of people who have done great work in open source...I don't see why you have to drag Parallella into this...still since you brought it up, Parallella was shipped to 10K customers and used in 200 research publications. What's your bar for success?
Indeed. Wake me up when Bohmian mechanics can predict the anomalous magnetic dipole moment.
As a regular meditator I'm curious if those with aphantasia are generally more present and in the current moment than those without it. A typical meditation practice involves working with mind wandering, and I'm guessing that visualization makes it easier to get lost in thought.
My imagination is limited. Care to help me out?

1.6kW deployed to any area in the world. I’m not sure how to visualize that, or what the implications are.
