I tried SICP straight from the book once, but I think the lectures are much better and the book acts as a supplemental reference.

This is cool! but also maybe you could put a button on the landing page to trigger the demo because it's a bit startling to hear my fans go crazy when opening a webpage.

Cool but why do I have to create an account to keep playing? I hit the back button to review the rules and now I can't even try the game out.

This is awesome. I'm doing something very similar with Chinese and Yu-Gi-Oh right now. So many language courses seem to cater to certain topics like interviewing for a job, getting through college, traveling, home life. But I want to e

The biggest shift in the past ~100 years or so was the fact that mass-literacy became a thing. People started writing how they speak. The written language's disconnect from the spoken language had a bunch of different reasons: bridging

This is a subreddit full of users who have, according to them, been unrightfully suspended (appealable) or disabled (permanent, no appeal process). A few months ago my dad went through this. He runs a community theater and a small business

I'm also building a language learning app and after checking out Morpheem, it kind of rocked my world. It does a much better job than I'd expect on Mandarin. Wow.

App for learning chinese, aimed at intermediate learners. SRS, reader, import content. Lots of fun problems like word segmentation, relevant distractors, integrating with LLMs, local-first sync.

I'm currently building an offline-first app that has a custom sync between a local SQLite and Postgres (Supabase). The "ejectable" idea here is so good and I will definitely implement something that turns all your saved data

I hate flashcards so I made my own app for studying Chinese after finishing HelloChinese. Very similar interface, but allows me to bring my own content.

They have won "market share" I'm not sure exactly which competitors they've undercut in the process? Are there any examples of a legitimate competitor that failed because they couldn't compete on price?

They share upsides, but the major downside that end users tradeoff compatibility with the rest of the software on their system is something Godot does not share.

Godot. I've spent time with Unity and it bogs down my system. Unreal.. seems to bring a lot of FPS baggage and you _must_ use visual scripting to iterate quickly. Bevy is promising. Godot and Bevy have a lot going for them: * They pro

The CNCF doesn't really dictate that kind of stuff. If something doesn't play nice try the Istio slack or file an issue on the main repo: https://github.com/istio/istio
