Show HN: Primitive tool to record GIFs from terminal commands https://bit.ly/3AOnIaC

Show HN: Primitive tool to record GIFs from terminal commands I've made a primitive tools to record GIF files. There's many tools like this, but I was inspired by VHS[0]. The thing is, VHS requires ffmpeg and chromium to create GIFs and videos, which is a nice approach, but it's too heavy for my taste. Basically, I forked a simple terminal emulator[1] written in plain C and added commands to write output straight to a GIF file[2]. It's stil a WIP pet-project, but I believe it could be usefull for someone, for example, to create animated illustrations for documentation, blog posts and such.

Show HN: Open-source case management for KYC/B (built-in OCR, face matching ML) https://bit.ly/3F2eqKR

Show HN: Open-source case management for KYC/B (built-in OCR, face matching ML) Hi everyone, We have just released an open-source case management dashboard for manually approving/rejecting KYC requests (know your customer) with built-in OCR & face-matching functionalities. Next steps: - Enable KYB (business onboarding) documents and personas approval. - Connected backend between our KYC flow and the case management dashboard. - Releasing an open-source rule engine, to help automate decisions. We’d love for you to try it out, give us feedback, and suggest features that would make it applicable to you. And if the rest of the project is relevant or interesting to you, follow us here: https://bit.ly/3Ns3tVp and we’ll update you once new things are available. Thanks! https://bit.ly/3u1rrxL November 25, 2022 at 08:44PM

Show HN: Amazon-like product recommendation engine to power open-source eComm https://bit.ly/3u1ZTIA

Show HN: Amazon-like product recommendation engine to power open-source eComm Hi HN! I wanted to share our product search and recommendation engine that we’ve built for our eCommerce api startup - Rye. For context, Rye lets people query and dropship products from almost any Shopify and Amazon store. One feature we wanted to have as part of our developer experience was a way for them to search and discover specific products to query. We’ve put together a demo marketplace to showcase the engine. Check it out here: https://bit.ly/3XBnldh Here’s a blog that outlines how we built it and how you can to: https://bit.ly/3XBnhu3... If you’d like to build on it, we’re also down to open source it for folks that want access. https://bit.ly/3XBnldh November 25, 2022 at 06:06PM

Show HN: Recycle your old Spotify playlists into new ones https://bit.ly/3U6fAcu

Show HN: Recycle your old Spotify playlists into new ones I wanted a way to quickly generate new Spotify playlists from my library based on some simple user inputs. There are probably a bunch of songs floating around in old playlists that you will never listen to again so the Spotify Playlist Recycling Plant is an attempt to resurrect these forgotten gems! At the heart of this tool is a simple custom algorithm that uses Spotify's 5000+ unique genres to find similar artists. It works well for my purposes but everybody uses Spotify differently so I'd love some feedback :) Built using React and the Spotify Web API. https://bit.ly/3V5dJWt November 25, 2022 at 02:07PM

Show HN: Google Sheets GOOGLEFINANCE() reliability enhancement https://bit.ly/3i6QEEq

Show HN: Google Sheets GOOGLEFINANCE() reliability enhancement Anyone who uses GOOGLEFINANCE() for stock/ETF prices and then logs your total portfolio assets daily (by trigger), knows that it is not 100% reliable. What I wanted was something that would use the last good data point if GOOGLEFINANCE was failing. So I added caching to solve this problem. There is also another issue that GOOGLEFINANCE is particularly bad with Canadian stock symbols. It also does not find stock/etf dividend yields. For this I query a few finance websites to pull in the missing info. Now the problem looking up a couple hundred symbols using =CACHEFINANCE() (my custom function) was the dreaded 'Loading' error, which would also cause asset tracking to fail - so... I also added the capability to run as a trigger function, so it has now been 100% success for my logging. The app script will create a trigger for each job required (i.e. pricing is one, yieldpct is another, etc.). It will also automatically exit and re-start the trigger if it can't get through all requests before the 6 minute mark (a Google restriction). This is especially needed with the 'Yieldpct' because all data is found using URL fetch - which is much slower than a working GOOGLEFINANCE. I have made this an open source project if you want to use the Google Apps Script. Please let me know of any suggestions to help improve going forward. This version works for me, but of course the first person using other than me will probably find something wrong. I'm sure my README.md could use some further enhancements. https://bit.ly/3Vqra3b November 24, 2022 at 11:42PM

Show HN: OpenDolphin – A Community Built Open Source Social Network https://bit.ly/3XtZFaF

Show HN: OpenDolphin – A Community Built Open Source Social Network Hey HN! I'm trying to create a community of people that are willing to contribute to the OpenDolphin project. The goal of the project is to build an Open Source _centralized_ social network that would ideally compete with Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. The main difference between the well established social and this one would be that it is going to be built and managed in the public, in the most transparent way possible. Features will be implemented and requested by the community - and generally speaking everything would be community-centric. If the project takes off, this might become one of the most transparent companies / projects out there. If you fancy joining us, come say "Hi" on our Slack instance, and help us shape the next social network! https://bit.ly/3V55dH4 November 24, 2022 at 01:55AM
