Show HN: Test your license plate identification skills

Earlier this week on HN I came across a dataset that had a bunch of approved/rejected California license plates, so I made it into a game! Enjoy

Comments

jony1266•8mo ago
LOL this is so fun -- esp because these are real license plates that got approved + rejected...

where did you get the data for the license plates from?

cAtte_•8mo ago
OP seems to be referring to https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44025022
jony1266•8mo ago
ah very cool
forthwall•8mo ago
Yup! I actually couldn’t find it for some reason, will add it to attribution- thanks
croisillon•8mo ago
i don't get it?

CHULO62

APPROVED | Reason: CHULO=PIMP

laweijfmvo•8mo ago
Same. I don't really understand the output.
forthwall•8mo ago
These are the notes written by the DMV. They may note that a plate may have a negative connotation, but they will still approve it
croisillon•8mo ago
ah ok thanks!
swalsh•8mo ago
This game feels like someone trying to RLHF some license plate model

Well, that's silly seeing how CBD is available OTC basically everywhere (thanks to Mitch McConnell and the law of unintended consequences https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/how-mitch-mcconnell-acc...)

Several years ago I received a letter from the Ohio BMV asking me to explain my vanity tag. I always wondered if somebody complained about it. I bet my explanation ended up in a database not unlike the one this game is based-on.

(My explanation to the BMV was that it was my favorite prime number less than 32,000...)

YOUR ARE WRONG!!!

REJECTED | Reason: POOP

Virginia has a national park license plate with a picture of a black bear. I recently saw it, vanity letters, "AHHBEAR", googly eye glued to the bear.
