I designed a matching algorithm for a dating website - okcupid - just before dating my (now) wife.
I met with their CTO and convinced him it’d work over lunch at Mary Chung’s. He gave me the keys to the source so I could start the implementation.
Unfortunately, for OKC, I met my wife with a manual implementation of the algorithm. And thereby lost all time and inclination to continue.
(For those that care, it was a naive TF-IDF approach. )
