I love this. Shouting into the void with the distinct feel, hope that if the idea was popular enough, it'd be brute forced back to existing.

I noticed that the input is not being treated any way before hashing. I'd remove all non-letter characters, and then lowercase everything before hashing to help with some unnecessary misses.


I'm still using Firefox and loving it actually. Other browser engines don't support "zoom text only" anymore so my options are limited. And to my knowledge, there's nothing as good as uBlock Origin for those webkit/blink based browsers...

Yes, Firefox constantly introduces new degradation in UX but so far they always offer opt-out mechanisms for even the most obscure things...


>just like Scorsese intended.

>before Scorsese made The Godfather

Can you let me in on the joke?


Whether he invented 24hz or not, the film was shot with that in mind, is the point. Just like the lighting of black and white films was very different because of color limitations, or the mannerisms of silent films were different due to lack of dialogue or sound other than a musical track.


Oof, I completely glossed over that. Twice.


It's not a joke it's a mistake! Thanks for the upvotes anyway :]

The director was of course Francis Ford Coppola.


I dunno, the grandparent comment gave credit for The Godfather to Scorsese so I ran with it.


I don't know what kind of a joke you tried here, but I think a vast majority of TV screens can be put in game or PC mode, and all the input lag and stupid picture processing goes away. I run a 43" LG 4K TV as a PC monitor and never have I had a (flat screen) monitor with a faster response rate! My cinema TV is an old FullHD 42" Philips that has laughably bad black levels. I run it also in PC mode but the real beauty of this TV is that without further picture processing it produces nice and cinemalike flat color that is true to the input material that I feed it. Flashy capeshit will be flashy and bright, and a muted period drama will stay muted.


Don't you just put tick "know this already" or whatever mechanism is used. It'll be asked a couple of times but it shouldn't be "relearned from scratch".


Perfect timing. I just started to teach my wife Finnish so that she'll have easier time with real language lessons when she gets her paperwork sorted out to move here. And I've feverishly been looking for a self-hosted SRS system where I can feed new content to the "decks" and she can consume it on her schedule. Making micro decks that she'd import in Anki wouldn't be very convenient. This would seem perfect to me.

I'm happy to hear other suggestions too?


Loistavaa, what a perfectly tailored comment for me, I have like 80% the thing for you at https://finnish.andrew-quinn.me/ . Unfortunately I'm all in on Anki but maybe these will sway you nonetheless.

Every 6 months I create around 5000 Anki cards out of the last 6 months for reading practice of the YLE Selkouutiset news, on a sentence by sentence basis: https://github.com/Selkouutiset-Archive/selkokortti

For raw isolated vocabulary my finfreq10k Anki deck can't be beat! https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1149950470

But in your case, and for writing practice, you may also like https://github.com/hiAndrewQuinn/finyap , which is self-hosted in the sense that a new deck is just a CSV file in "scenarios".

Tsemppiä vaimollesi!


Fantastic tools you've collected here! My rationale for building own decks for my wife is that I'm intending to start slow and easy, and I'll build new cards that are closely tied to days' lessons I'm giving her. I'm hopeful that after a while she gains confidence to start going through premade decks. With anki and similar tools it's important not to just memorize words without having some handle on how to build sentences etc. I spent a lot of time learning Japanese that way, only to find that I maybe memorized words but to build sentences with them...


I have something close to this, even a helpful bulk import. But it works on your own account not someone else’s.

The feature

https://learnalist.net/faq/add-a-list-overtime-for-spaced-le...

Bulk import ui https://learnalist.net/toolbox/srs-add-overtime-v1.html

You’re welcome to try it, it is not self-hosted.

I also have a mobile app, and have been thinking of how to simplify the server etc.

Equally been thinking about how to modify the mobile app to work better with a different backend but still maintain notifications (local instead of server).

It used to be in the public domain but I moved it to a private repo. I am open to moving it back, there is just a small part of the code I want to keep private.


My first instinct is that users abuse it like they do any other report/downvote mechanism. They see something they just don't plain like, they report it as AI slop.


Oh, you think it's undervalued?


If you believe the US government will reopen the door to China sales, then yes. Highly rumored to be a thing soon.


Source?


If the target is superintelligence, then AI shouldn't be learning from humans.


Greasemonkey with vibe coded user scripts, basically.
