Semantic-dictionary – A Python dictionary with semantic lookup
The idea is simple: a Python dictionary that uses semantic similarity during lookup. Say you're working on user preference extraction for an AI agent. In some cases, the model may output something like: ``` { "preference": "Database", "value": "sqlite3" } ``` but it (or a different model) may later request the user preference using a subtly different key: ``` { "action": "get_user_preference", "preference": "Database System" } ``` If we parse these responses and store them in a standard dictionary, we'll miss the similarity between the two preference keys "Database" and "Database System",…

Semantic Calculator (king-man+woman=?)2025 · calc.datova.ai · ▲176I've been playing with embeddings and wanted to try out what results the embedding layer will produce based on just word-by-word input and addition / subtraction, beyond what many videos / papers mention (like the obvious king-man+woman=queen). So I built something that doesn't just give the first answer, but ranks the matches based on distance / cosine symmetry. I polished it a bit so that others can try it out, too. For now, I only have nouns (and some proper nouns) in the dataset, and pick the most common interpretation among the homographs. Also, it's case sensitive.

Hey HN! Pilots everywhere are required to keep a logbook of all their flying hours, aircraft, airports, and so on. Since I track everything digitally (some people still just use paper logbooks!), I put together some data visualizations and a few 3D globes to show my flying history. This globe is probably my favourite so far: https://jameshard.ing/pilot/globes/all If you’ve got ideas for other graphs or ways to show this kind of data, I’d love to hear them!

I was the main contributor to workout.lol, an open-source fitness app to easily build a workout routine. The project had traction (1.4k GitHub stars, 95 forks, ~20K visits/month), but was eventually sold due to video licensing hurdles. The new owner stopped maintaining it, and the repo went abandoned. Over the next 9 months, I sent 15 emails to try to save it : no replies. Feature requests & issues were ignored. The community was left with a "broken" tool let's say. I couldn't just let it die So I built the new version from scratch with the same open-source spirit, but a better…
