Show HN: I built a workflow for photorealistic person generation

Most LoRA trainings for person specific generation hit quality issues that make results look artificial. The breakthrough came from rethinking how lighting and expressions are handled during training and adjusting generation parameters.

Here are some examples:

Using Flux as base model. Has aynone pushed realism to this level in image generation?

Show HN: Zuhal – A Fast and Accurate Email Validation Service

Hi HN,

I’ve been working on Zuhal, an email validation service designed for developers and marketers who need to ensure their emails reach real inboxes.

Zuhal checks for syntax, domain validity, MX records, disposable addresses, and deliverability risks — all via a simple REST API or bulk upload.

I built this because I faced deliverability issues with email campaigns and wanted a tool that’s fast, accurate, and affordable.

I'd love to hear your thoughts, feedback, or suggestions for improvements. Also curious about how you handle email list hygiene in your projects or companies.

Here’s the site: [https://zuhal.io](https://zuhal.io)

Happy to answer any questions!

Show HN: I made a HTML parser with it's own matching language in C

Realistically speaking it's mostly useful for scraping, since parser works only in immutable state - it creates dom elements referencing original string, so changes to it are not cost effective. This approach has the benefit of increadibly small memory usage.

Here's python api if you want to test it https://github.com/TUVIMEN/reliq-python , pypi packages are compiled for windows, x86 aarch64 armv7 linux, and macos.

I vibe-coded a $0.15/week AI marketing automation for social media

Hi HN,

I'm a CTO-turned-solo-founder who got tired of seeing "vibe marketing" success stories (looking at you, Greg Isenberg) without the technical implementation details. So I spent 3 hours building and recording a complete marketing automation system.

*What it does:* - Claude AI analyzes your writing style and generates content - Runs through custom keyword optimization algo - Passes through humanizer algo for authentic voice - Node.js project pushes to Google Sheets for manual approval - Zapier picks up approved content → Buffer schedules it - One command: `npm run generate:weekly` → 2 daily X posts + 3 weekly long-form

*Tech stack:* - Anthropic Claude API for content generation - Custom Node.js algorithms for keyword optimization + humanization - Google Sheets as approval workflow - Zapier for automation workflows - Buffer API for scheduling - Cost: ~$0.15/week (just API calls)

*Architecture decisions:* The Google Sheets approval step was crucial. Pure automation felt too risky for brand voice. Now I can review/edit before publishing while keeping 90% of the workflow automated.

The humanizer algo was the trickiest part - had to fine-tune prompts to maintain my technical writing style while avoiding AI-generated "fluff."

*Why this approach:* Most marketing tools are either expensive ($100+/month) or completely generic. This learns YOUR voice but gives you control over what actually gets published.

*Current workflow:* 1. `npm run generate:weekly` 2. Review Google Sheet, flip approved posts to "confirmed" 3. Everything else happens automatically

*Demo:* I recorded the entire 3-hour build session here: https://x.com/GashiDite/status/1934686143196311841
