Show HN: GenOutfit – AI and scraping and fashion =personalized outfit generationhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43722583I built a web app called GenOutfit that gives you outfit ideas tailored to your body type, style preferences, and whatever occasion you're dressing for.The idea came from a mix of personal frustration and observation. I like to dress decently, but honestly, sometimes I just can't picture how certain outfits would actually look on me. At the same time, I noticed my gf spends ages scrolling Pinterest and Instagram for outfit inspiration. That's when it kind of clicked, what if there was a way to see outfit ideas that look like they'd work for you?So I started with a spreadsheet , I listed out about 97 fashion influencer accounts and tagged each one by style (streetwear, casual, etc.), gender, and body type (athletic, plus-size, etc.). Then I scraped their Instagram content, images and captions and used AI to describe what each person was wearing in the pictures. Everything got stored in a database.Now, when someone uses the app, they just enter a few things like body type, skin tone, andApr 17, 2025 9:45 PM

Fuzzy Matching on Mac: Missing No More?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43367289## Mac Users Got Left Out, Until NowFor individuals utilizing Microsoft Excel on Mac systems, a significant limitation has persisted: the absence of Microsoft’s Fuzzy Lookup Add-In, a feature restricted to Windows versions of Excel. This exclusion has hindered Mac users from leveraging fuzzy matching, a critical technique for identifying approximate matches within datasets, directly within their preferred spreadsheet software. This gap in functionality has compelled many to resort to inefficient workarounds or alternative platforms, often at the expense of productivity with budgetary considerations.Flookup Data Wrangler emerges as an indispensable solution, specifically tailored to address this need for Mac users. Operating as an add-on for Google Sheets, Flookup delivers robust fuzzy matching capabilities alongside advanced data cleaning tools, making it an essential asset for professionals managing data on Mac devices.

Show HN: Turn Scripture Memory into a Fun, Daily Gamehttps://www.hidetheword.app/Hey HN! I’m thrilled to share *[HideTheWord.app](https://hidetheword.app)\, an app I built to tackle a challenge that’s been close to my heart: creating a consistent, impactful routine for scripture memory.### Why I Built HideTheWordFor years, I struggled with staying consistent in memorizing Bible verses, often forgetting the ones I’d learned or feeling lost on what to memorize next. HideTheWord was born out of my journey to cultivate a deeper, more intentional approach to scripture memory.### What HideTheWord Offers1. *A Library of Verses* HideTheWord keeps track of all your verses, whether you’re currently working on them or they’re already memorized. This feature has been invaluable for me to see, at a glance, what’s in my heart and what I’m working toward.2. *Verse Suggestions When You’re Stuck* Sometimes, I don’t know what verse to memorize next, so I added a feature that offers verse suggestions tailored to my needs. Now I have a reliable “next step” every time I want to deepen Nov 4, 2024 7:52 PM

Ask HN: Is It Time to Retire Open API Spec for JSON API?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41487501Hello HN, I am planning to develop a new API Specification format that’s tailored for code generation and schema first design because I find Open API Spec and the surrounding toolchains frustrating to work with.I am seeing a lot of new startups trying to solve existing problems surrounding Open API Spec. Speakeasy, Fern, and Liblab are all trying to generate state-of-the-art client SDK using Open API Spec.I want to take a different approach. I believe the reason why the experience surrounding the Open API toolchain is subpar is because Open API Spec is designed to be an API Documentation format, not for code generations.I build Json APIs mostly. I need a quick and easy way to write a spec for my APIs, and generate server request/response models and http clients to get end-to-end type safety across my services. If I can get API documentation out of this process, even better.Instead, doing what is supposed to be simple proves to be nearly impossible with Open API Spec.First, I have to stSep 9, 2024 11:31 AM

Show HN: Mem0 – open-source Memory Layer for AI appshttps://github.com/mem0ai/mem0Hey HN! We're Taranjeet and Deshraj, the founders of Mem0 (https://mem0.ai). Mem0 adds a stateful memory layer to AI applications, allowing them to remember user interactions, preferences, and context over time. This enables AI apps to deliver increasingly personalized and intelligent experiences that evolve with every interaction. There’s a demo video at https://youtu.be/VtRuBCTZL1o and a playground to try out at https://app.mem0.ai/playground. You'll need to sign up to use the playground – this helps ensure responses are more tailored to you by associating interactions with an individual profile.Current LLMs are stateless—they forget everything between sessions. This limitation leads to repetitive interactions, a lack of personalization, and increased computational costs because developers must repeatedly include extensive context in every prompt.When we were building Embedchain (an open-source RAG framework with over 2M downloads), users constantly shared their frustration with LLMsSep 4, 2024 4:01 PM

Show HN: Coursegen.ai – AI powered individualized learning platformhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36497946Hey HN, Cole and Alex here.We're excited to share CourseGen (https://www.CourseGen.ai), an AI-powered platform that aims to rethink the traditional approach to education by utilizing generative AI models for creating individualized learning paths. If you're into AI, education, and how these two can intersect, you might find this interesting.The backbone of CourseGen is the generative AI. Instead of the one-size-fits-all courses, CourseGen aims to craft tailored, non-linear learning paths. Think of it like a choose-your-own-adventure book, but for learning.We acknowledge that there's a long-standing issue with generalized courses – they often don't align with everyone's learning style. CourseGen is our experiment in trying to tackle that problem. By using AI, we are attempting to give more agency to the learners in how they consume educational content.We’re looking at long-term possibilities of making education adapt to the learner rather than the other way around.
