Glad you're enjoying it! Currently the best way is just that there's a "mark known" button at the bottom of articles to mark all remaining words as known. Also on the wordlist view you can select many words and mark them

Thanks! Yeah we have JLPT word lists available and you can set them as a focus and learn the words from the JLPT word lists from clips / snippets of videos and articles -- perhaps there's deeper integration we could do there too.

Thanks for the feedback! I did originally write it myself in a rush using the English as the basis but have since had it rewritten by a native Japanese speaker -- I will have that done again. > (tango o suru, seriously what does that mea

I’m working on a website for intermediate learners to practice by reading and listening, including Japanese, and Japanese is my strongest second language so I can answer a bit about why it’s so uncommon. Japanese is just really, really hard

Ukraine has captured a lot of Russian equipment during the recent Russian retreats. I’ve even seen it claimed in the past few months that Russia was, at points, the number 1 supplier of Ukraine in terms of equipment due to how much they lef

I've been wanting to make a datalog tagging system for a few things for a while now but don't have the energy to actually do it. Essentially the idea is to encode relationships allowing for very specific queries like: "show m

Yeah it's pretty much exclusively used incorrectly. The original meaning was that an exception to a rule proves that such a rule exists. For example, "no parking on Sunday" is an exception that implies that parking on any day

I'm working on a B2C product as an indie founder and I run into this quite a lot. Though from my perspective a lot of the "physical vs non-physical" disconnect is also about the fact that people who have not had direct experi

In Taipei, and Taiwanese cities as far as I've seen, it's the same! The main benefit is just how convenient they are. For example there's a place in Taipei where you can walk to 72 different 7-11s with a 10 minute walk [1] --

Perhaps that's true on average, but there are some very cold places in Japan and the housing is the same there as I understand it: built to last 20-30 years. For example https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asahikawa#Clim

Assuming this was run on a 64bit system, the Rust version seems to be allocating and zeroing twice as much memory as the Go version. edit: this has been pointed out as incorrect, Go ints are 8 bytes on 64bit systems -- thanks for the correc
