Hearwiki

2,834 headphones. 7,041 reviews. One transparent score.

What it does

HearWiki turns thousands of headphone, earbud and IEM reviews into one comparable 0 to 100 score. Search the catalog, answer five questions for a ranked shortlist, compare up to three models side by side, or check whether an upgrade is actually worth it. Scores blend published verdicts and normalized specs, with no sponsored rankings or paid placement.

An independent database of headphones, earbuds and IEMs. One 0-100 score per product, blended from published reviews, plus specs, side-by-side comparisons and a finder that asks five questions and shows its reasoning.

We read the reviews so you don't have to. Every product carries one 0-100 score blended from published verdicts. No sponsorships, no paid rankings, no best-of list written backwards from a commission. Five questions: type, use, budget, must-haves, sound. You get a ranked shortlist with the reasoning behind every pick shown. Put contenders side by side: sub-scores, specs and review verdicts in one table. Pin products as you browse and compare later. See the score delta, which sub-scores actually move, and what the jump costs per point gained. Often the honest answer is don't bother. The top three in each category by HearWiki score, capped at one product per brand so the list isn't four…from hearwiki.com

    Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.
