I can almost see the jokes about "i want to see the unit tests" and "doesn't work on furries or avatar porn" etc. On a more serious note, this sort of stuff is hard. Google images does a shitty job of it from some slightly unexpected experiences. Good on people for having a go at the problem!

I once worked with a guy who has done some contracting as a porn filter tester. He said that the filter he was testing was extremely good, however it did not catch the nastiest things out there. I asked him what the nastiest things out there were that the filter did not catch. He said "furries," paused, "... and... well... squids."

Did anyone else get annoyed by the use of the word "analyzation"? "Analysis" is the word that should've been used. (this is almost as painful a turn-of-phrase as "physicalization")

Very much so.

Does anyone know of/used any nudity detection libraries on the backend? This is something I am looking to solve, but haven't found any solid ones for python.

A few years ago, I was in a big box store and overheard a young (~10y/o) child and his mother picking out a new video game. The kid excitedly picked up a box and asked his mom if he could get that one. She checked out the cover, then started reading the rating. "Rated 'mature' for sexual content? No way!" "Aw, man! Ok, how about this one?" "Rated 'mature' for extreme graphic violence? Well... ok."

Potential HN karma hack: create new account and post stories from Reddit that haven't already appeared. That's not necessarily what happened here, but I am slightly suspicious.

Why is that a hack? I've done that a few times, and vice-versa. Not really for karma, but because I thought people would find the stories interesting.

What's the cheapest way of getting karma for a brand new account?

Making comments requires thought. Finding interesting content is time consuming. But arbitraging Reddit content, that's trivial.

this is the first time I've seen someone even mention 'karma' on HN. It used to be a complete non-issue. @pg - can we just remove the karma score? People should contribute because they feel they have something to add to the community, not to get points.

And that's why submitting trash needs to come with a karma penalty.

1. This has nothing to do with the article. 2. I doubt that ever happened. Why would she read aloud the rating?

Looks like a post straight from reddit.

I've used a REST service for this from pifilter.com - cost was 0.1 cents per image.

Results were generally good, but notable false positives include a pastrami sandwich.

The violence is fake. The nudity is real.
