My plan for the next step is to detect faces, ask the user to label the most occurring faces, and then label all images accordingly. This step seems a bit harder than just feeding the image through Gemini and asking it to create labels.

#812The first ever SQL debugger – runs & visualizes your query step-by-step, every clause, condition, expression, incl. GROUP BY, aggregates / windows, DISTINCT (ON), subqueries (even correlated ones!), CTEs, you name it. You can search for full or partial rows and see the whole query lineage – which intermediate rows from which CTEs/subqueries contributed to the result you're searching for. Entirely offline & no usage o…
Possibly look at https://duckdb.org/community_extensions/extensions/parser_to... Even if not for DuckDB, you can use this to validate/ parse queries possibly.

#815A tree cutting tool. Take photos of the tree from 6 different angles, feed into a 3D model generator, erode the model and generate a 3D graph representation of the tree. The tool suggests which cuts to make and where, given a restricted fall path (e.g. constrained by a neighbors yard on one side). I create the fallen branches in their final state along the fall plane, and create individual correction vectors mapping…

#816I'm working on getting a wife. I actively work on it a few hours every day.
Having had some former coworkers that ended up at various dating platforms, dating is fascinating, I still think dating is something that needs a better modern solution than what “the apps” offer. Every dating app has a few fundamental flaws. There’s the human element too.
What worked for me was hacking Tinder circa 2014 by faking my geolocation and hypertargeting certain places and neighborhoods I knew would be up my dating alley and spamming posts on social media sites like Reddit and Craigslist.
It’s tough because some people don’t even know what they’re looking for in a partner.

#817Creating a modern development environment for win98. Currently I’m working on a git client. I have no patience for learning C. So backporting git is not an option. I also don’t want to use cygwin. So I’m using a server to expose git as http endpoints and coding a git client in php to use in msdos. I have Vim 7.3 and and gnu coreutils working in msdos already. So soon I will have a very nice dev environment. I want to…

#819It's niche and boring, but I help immigrants pick German health insurance. The existing information is mostly blogspam from non-experts who try to make a quick buck. They only recommend the two brands with an affiliate program. I wrote a better guide with help from competing insurance experts. The information is clear and succinct without oversimplifying things. It addresses the specific needs of immigrants. Then I t…
