My current one is https://limnology.co/ , organizing the top 70k educational youtubers in 20 languages. Youtube's channel discovery is pretty bad, and I wanted an easy way to find new channels about the topics I'm

Unfortunately all the other languages have too few results, I just checked and Greek only has 0.7% as many channels as English in the db, so it'd only be a few pages of content

I did think about it, but my concern was that because I only take a small subset of top keywords for each channel, it's very easy to create a combination of tags that'll show no results. I'll play around with it and see if it

It's in the database: https://limnology.co/en/creators/UCHn_K1zOBYZqtmIYkXLEIQw And on the second page for the anatomy keyword https://limnology.co/en/languages/en/keywords&#x2F

Try digging deeper into the "Related Keywords" cloud at the top, the narrower is the keyword you pick, the more long-form & technical and the less pop-channell-y stuff you'll see.

I'll add a report button, it definitely needs it. All of that data is from the the youtube channels themselves and _a lot_ of them mislabel things, even such basic ones as their channel's language.

Thanks! Search box has been requested multiple times, so will implement, and reverse search is already possible here: https://limnology.co/en/channels

by askytb 4y ago
Yeah, that is something I'd love to implement but so far could not figure it out, even simply interlinking the keywords across 20 different languages is very non-trivial

Elon is one of the best people to learn from about the development speed, given how fast they move at SpaceX, so I thought I'd post it here. My summary of what he talks about in his 5 steps: 1) Make the requirements less dumb. I.e. alw

Not really, human face recognition is quite accurate and humans all look identical in comparison to the diversity of cats and dogs

Build an app for finding lost pets with facial recognition. Recognizing cats is the easiest thing for neural nets, yet I haven't seen it used for lost pets yet. Basic idea, if my pet is lost, I open up your app, upload a few images of
