After the last time (I don't want to get into it), I'm done meeting bananas online. I'm going back to the fruit stands. At least in person, you can tell if an orange is trying to pull a fast one.

At the risk of doxxing myself, my now-wife and I met on Tinder. I modified Tinder for Bananas to be a slideshow of our courtship and used it to propose.

I can't tell it apart from the real thing. This is actually my experience when I used tinder. Which is why I gave up and don't use it anymore.

it would be nice to have more than 4 images

Yes, we need more banans.

[dalmo3 → labster]

We have no bananas today.

This just made me LOL so hard, it was totally worth the nonsense! We all need to laugh hard at least once a day :)

If it looks like a robot can solve it... It's probably being used to train a robot to solve it.

[crummy → amar-laksh]

Definitely mining our data to figure out which bananas we find attractive.

Congrats on the endorsement from Gwen Stefani. Always good to see an HN project get a hollaback.

[guywhocodes → labster]

Are you calling Gwen a hypocrite?

[mikeInAlaska → guywhocodes]

I think that's her real hair color, so calling her a hypochlorite is just mean.

isnt that what grindr is?

This is the kind of website I like to open when on a crowded commuter train for people to glance over my shoulder.

I typically read the comments before ever going to a link. These comments have left me very intrigued.

Most bananas are genetically identical ... so this may not work out well.

What is the software stack that was used to build the site?

I wonder if they have dates in a banana bar

WTF is this supposed to be?

The author of this tool has another article on the frontpage of HN (the webGPU without canvas one). Commonly when this happens, visitors will visit other not quite as relevant pages on an author's site and submit them to HN and they will sometimes bubble up.

It’s a tinder for bananas. A great way to meet single bananas.

[stavros → blululu]

I prefer bunches.

I mean... it's right there. In the title. :)
