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

In plain words

This is an interactive game where players test their ability to predict whether California license plates will be approved or rejected. The game is based on a dataset of real approved and rejected plates, letting players learn the rules that determine which custom license plate requests the state accepts. It's designed for anyone interested in California's licensing system or looking for a quick, puzzle-like game experience.

  • Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…
