Immersion with native content: develop listening+reading comprehension. Success is measured with time spent with the language. Find something that interests you at your skill level…

I think a query language would be great, with a way to subquery/chain data from previous requests (e.g. by jsonpath) to subsequent ones. The closest I’ve gotten is to wrap the APIs…

Somewhat off-topic, but is there a tool which integrates something like this/jq/fx and API requests? I’d like to be able to do some ETL-like operations and join JSON responses decl…

Hey HN! I made this web app to help me learn some music theory in real time whenever I stumble upon happy accidents such as chords, chord progressions, or scales that sound good, a…

We use this at https://languageroadmap.com , but for difficulty rankings between titles in the context of language learning using media. It does seem to work pretty well and we dis…

I’m learning French with reading/media too and realized media will never exhaust itself like beginner apps do. I wanted an open-ended platform to to follow that reasoning, so I cre…

While there are probably some tools to do this, I'd suggest taking the plunge and just doing native subs (or no subs!). Part of the immersion process is being comfortable in being …

Thank you so much! And yes, the responsive breakpoints between mobile and desktop need some love. Thank you again for checking it out

Hey, all! I'm happy to announce the release of a site I've been working on to help find immersion content that's compelling and comprehensible. It's part-catalog, part-immersion tr…

While this draws from mostly right-leaning concerns about higher education[0] despite claiming itself more open, I get the sentiment. However, costs usually rank higher among conce…

Nice! I’m also developing a clone at https://github.com/cofinley/free-roam . Done mainly to learn latest React/Redux. It’s coming along nicely. Also hosted on GitHub pages as a typ…

Thanks for the input. I plan on creating a version for authors too. If it's possible in your organization or release strategy, self-deployment is good for the reasons you say, and …

Thanks for the feedback! > you need to add as much formatting/linting into [step 1] as possible Yes, project formatting is a whole other topic but this assumes the project already …

Author here. Thanks for the feedback. > Developers should be responsible for their own QA. QA is not what code reviews are about. While I agree that each dev is responsible for the…
