• Visual Explanations of Mathematics

  Want to see a thousand more? Copy-paste the example image (not the URL) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/549dcda5e4b0a47d0ae1db1e/1582600213850-LS91KKPFTN5BRVNKG94J/annotated_Fourier_Transform.png into https://yandex.com/images/ Or, the URL into https://www.bing.com/images -> "[o] Search using an Image" Unfortunately, Google Images is too smart.

• Tips for searching

  Yandex Images - the best reverse-image search there is. Drag an image in, then click "Similar Images". It's useful to filter down to certain sites by using the "On this site" filter and entering domains like gettyimages.com, listal.com, bellazon.com - I've found Yandex Reverse really useful for dropping similar looking images (like the Filipa ones or AI-generated ones) in, and finding potential candidates.

• How do I find realistic trans goals for myself? (Mtf, 25)

  Run your picture through FaceApp to gender-swap it, and then upload it to https://yandex.com/images/ to find examples of other people who look somewhat like your gender-swapped self. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Photographs of Grozny before the wars

  You need to search 1) on Yandex and preferably 2) in Russian, though it's not that important it seems. Use e.g. Query грозный ссср фото (grozny sssr photo) and you'll get plenty of results. Source: almost 2 years ago

• In more terrible news, there’s apparently a service now that restaurant/bar owners can use to create AI bots on dating apps to drive unassuming customers their way

  I dont insist on a video chat or phone call... But I do run every picture through yandex reverse image search. (yandex works WAY better than google, bing, or tineye). Source: almost 2 years ago

• Don't watermark your legal PDFs with purple dragons in suits

  The coked-up AI cartoon dragon attorney. His website, which also features the purple dragon and a bunch of busted links in the footer, says that the firm "integrates AI to lower the cost of legal services." Hopefully this lawyer is making sure this AI isn't making up the cases it's citing, which is a continuing problem: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=ai+make+up+legal+cases. - Source: Hacker News / 26 days ago

• Virginia passes law to enforce maximum vehicle speeds for repeat speeders

  That is not a definitive result. Repairing older cars to meet minimum standards is possible. They also could introduce things gradually and grandfather older vehicles into the previous lack of standards, which is what NY did. You can read about the 85th percentile principle here: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=85th+percentile+speed https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=85th+percentile+speed I actually cannot check the... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Virginia passes law to enforce maximum vehicle speeds for repeat speeders

  It does make sense. See the 85th percentile speed: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=85th+percentile+speed Setting the limit at the 85th percentile and having most drivers drive at it creates uniformity of speed, which is known to increase safety. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Mesmerizing Interlocking Geometric Patterns Produced with Japanese Woodworking

  Reminds me of Islamic Mashrabiya screens. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Mashrabiya&ia=images&iax=images Historically, the screens were quite simple, with more complex patterns rendered in ceramic tilings (symmetry groups, colorings, knots and intertwinings). Now there are good modern screens with more innovative patterns, made with computer-controlled laser cutters. In a quick search for Kumiko examples, I very... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• NSF director to resign amid grant terminations, job cuts, and controversy

  Https://archive.org/details/resignationinpro00weis From an Amazon review comment: "This book offers an insightful analysis into the history and norms involved in the tradition of resignation in the U.S. And the U.K. Why do the British tend to resign loudly in protest and Americans resign “to spend more time with family” while praising their president? How do these norms benefit and harm their respective systems?... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago
