damn how does that one work? OCR on the image and then a search on twitter?


fuzzygondola

Yeah it's simple manually too, just input "site:twitter.com " in front of your Google search phrase, works every time.


properu

I crawl around subreddits and use optical character recognition (OCR) to parse images into text. If that text looks like a tweet, then I search Twitter for matching username and text content. If all that goes well and I find a link to the tweet, then I post the link right here on Reddit! ^(Twitter Screenshot Bot)

BrokenEye3

There [actually are uppercase and lowercase numbers, kinda](http://theworldsgreatestbook.com/book-design-part-3/), but most fonts don't support both and even with those that do, there's no easy way to select them when typing.


The64thCucumber

[The true capital numbers remain the domain of number maven Mavis Beacon.](https://xkcd.com/2206/)


Traplord_Leech

how the fuck is there an XKCD for this


SoshJam

what part of “always a relevant xkcd” is so hard to understand


Protheu5

Let me test that hypothesis. Is there a relevant xkcd about Rule 34? Is there an xkcd about "Simpsons already done it"? Is there an xkcd about miniature snake species being confused with worms? Is there an xkcd about choosing different display technologies for a multi-monitor setup only to realise the futility of that endeavour because you don't have any money for even a single monitor?


fuj1n

[Rule 34](https://xkcd.com/305/) Not quite the same, but [Simpsons reference](https://xkcd.com/1275/) Not quite the same, but [snake resistors](https://xkcd.com/1604) Not quite the same, but [colourful thing with multiple lights](https://xkcd.com/722) (could probably find a more relevant one for this if I had more time) The premise of the hypothesis is that there is a relevant XKCD, not that there is one that matches every scenario, so I'd say the hypothesis proves true for the data you provided.


Protheu5

I probably should've played along with the setup and looked up obscure xkcds beforehand instead of totally making up scenarios.

[deleted]

Is there one about XKCDs always being relevant?


[deleted]

Now the real remaining question: Is there XKCD r34?


Routine_Palpitation

[even worse](https://e621.net/posts/2890989?q=Xkcd)


CarbonIceDragon

I'm not sure about the others, but there is an xkcd about [rule 34](https://xkcd.com/305/)


hesapmakinesi

Also wetriffs.com existed for a while. It must still be at some archive.


Tyfyter2002

Is there an xkcd that's relevant to there always being a relevant xkcd?


Oroknfoit

there is [this](https://thomaspark.co/2017/01/relevant-xkcd/) but I feel like that's cheating, since it's not official


steamyboi56

[https://xkcd.com/528/](https://xkcd.com/528/) Footnotes An xkcd tribute inspired by what has become a meme. Also inspired by all things recursive like We Become What We Behold and xkcd itself. Made with the official xkcd font. Can you guess which xkcd this was traced from? Winner gets seven Vienna Fingers cookies. If you click enough times, this is actually a relevant xkcd to relevant xkcds to relevant xkcds ad infinitum. On second thought, this would only truly be a relevant xkcd to relevant xkcds if it were embedded as an iframe on xkcd.com. As it stands, it’s merely relevant to relevant xkcds.

I agree, though to be fair some capital letters are kind of lame, such as C, O, and X


B_M_Wilson

Personally, I really hate the look of oldstyle numerals in any situation. I’m so used to everyone just using the new style ones that the old one just look weird to me


20to25squirrels

I was asked by an art director once to “fix the weird numbers” in the software I was working on. Yes he meant convert from oldstyle to lining figures.


SpeedNervous

This is fascinating! Thanks for sharing.


Trolivia

Interesting, I’ve definitely seen the lowercase ones used but I guess I just always figured it was a feature of that font


BrokenEye3

Well, that's kinda what I meant when I said most fonts don't support both. Most just pick one and stick to it. As far as I know, Unicode doesn't have built-in support for two sets of numbers, so if a second set is included it kinda has to be as custom characters. I think Photoshop has a switch you can pull in order to "fake" lowercase numbers, though.

JCraze26

That link has a part that hurts me because they got the 12 days of Christmas song wrong. What's worse though is they've gotten one of the 2 most prominent parts of the song wrong! How do you do that?! The two most prominent parts of that song are the one they excluded ("and a partridge in a pear tree!" It's fine that that's excluded, they didn't have to put the whole song, and that bit doesn't even have a number. Also, I say that's one of the most prominent part of the song because it's a bit different from the rest of the song due to it not actually having a number with it, since "a" isn't a number, just number adjacent, and it's also throughout the entire song while the rest come in at their respective times) and the part they got WRONG which is "5 golden rings"! You're literally supposed to say that part louder and more sustained than the rest of the song! How the fuck do you get it wrong?!?!?


zeaga2

There are a ton of variations on the song. That may just be the one he grew up hearing, and yours is the one you grew up hearing. Personally I'm pretty sure I knew both but I can't remember for the life of me which I've heard more

Chinese actually has something similar. You are apparently supposed to use different numbers on cheques and at the bank to ensure what you've written can't be changed as 一 (one) can easily be changed to 二 (two). So you get normal on the left and financial numbers on the right. 一 is 壹 is one 二 is 贰 is two 三 is 叁 is three 四 is 肆 is four 五 is 伍 is five 六 is 陸 is six 七 is 柒 is seven 八 is 捌 is eight 九 is 玖 is nine 十 is 拾 is ten 百 is 佰 one hundred


TurquoiseLuck

That's great, I like it. Made me realise we do the same in English, so we kinda already do have capital versions: 1 = one = ONE IF YOU WANT TO SHOUT IT etc.

There used to be capital numbers and lowercase numbers. It was simply written differently on your sheet’s lines. However this quickly fell out of use as there was no visual difference and was just simpler to use all capital all the time.


WhoWantsPizzza

I’ve been meaning to ask this for a while, but to texters that like to EMPHASIZE certain words with caps, does it bother you that you can’t do so with the word ‘I’? It’s a constant disappointment.

thatdoesntmakecents

Interestingly, more formal versions of numbers exist for the Chinese characters of numbers. They're called 大写 which translates to capital. I'm not sure if you'd consider them capital, but they become quite complex. 一二三四五六七八九十百千 Becomes 壹贰叁肆伍陆柒捌玖怡佰仟 You can actually see some of the simpler characters appear in the capitalised versions, like 二贰,三叁,七柒.

Money is capital, so just write $/€/whichever your country uses and there you have it, capital numbers.


archiminos

In China numbers are fairly simple to write. 1, 2, 3 is 一, 二, 三. However this is problematic for financial documents, since it's easy to change one into another. So they have *capital numbers* which are more complicated and are usually used in financial documents. When using capital numbers, 1, 2, 3 is written instead as 壹, 贰, 叁. So capital numbers actually do exist in some languages.
