I'm working on Repple ( https://repple.sh )! It's a modern spaced repetition x incremental reading/PDF library app with a few (tasteful!) QOL AI features. I've been using Anki for …

I'm building Repple ( https://repple.sh ), a free flashcard app with spaced repetition scheduling and some (tasteful imo) AI additions. I've been using Anki for 10+ years and love …

Show HN: I built a tool to learn from LLMs through Wiki-style rabbit holes
I've been building this for a few months now, started because I was frustrated with how I learn using LLMs. You get a wall of text that vanishes into chat history. Wikipedia's the …

I'm wondering about this too. Would be nice to see an ablation here, or at least see some analysis on the reasoning traces. It definitely doesn't wipe its internal knowledge of Cry…

Since it now includes 4 thinking levels (minimal-high) I'd really appreciate if we got some benchmarks across the whole sweep (and not just what's presumably high). Flash is meant …

both have had questionable content for a while, it's a wonder people are still paying for them. especially given that LLMs exist (and youtube for that matter).

Since no one has mentioned it yet: note that the benchmarks for large are for the base model, not for the instruct model available in the API. Most likely reason is that the instru…

Shameless plug: if OP is looking to stay on d3, he could also try slotting in my C++/WASM versions[1] of the main d3 many-body forces. Not the best, but I've found >3x speedup usin…

Working on a new interface for learning with LLMs that creates courses on any topic. https://periplus.app The goal was to make the learning material very malleable, so all content …

I've been getting a lot of vulnerability "spam mail" recently that's clearly AI-generated. It's a surprise every public bounty program isn't completely buried in automatic reports …

would be nice to finally see multi-turn coding benchmarks. everything we have so far is single-turn and that's clearly not a realistic scenario.

Hey, sorry for seeing this late! You can send me a message on discord (dcbcdefb), or email (support (at) periplus dot app). Also available on Twitter!

I suspect one can go a lot further by adopting some tweaks from the GPT-2 speedrun effort [0], at minimum Muon, better init and carefully tuning learning rate. [0]: https://github.…

Thanks a lot! I did do some of these things (namely Reddit) and that worked well, just the number of places that allow posting is limited and I don't want to get too spammy. Will c…

I have no idea how to market this honestly. Most of my users came from a single discord server, but the feedback is overall pretty positive. If you have any tips I'd be super grate…

Just added a proper playback control component on desktop, allows changing rate, rewinding & persists across pages :)!

Yeah it's still hard to deal with LLM gaps (fwiw Study mode would also be prone to this). I do try to catch the super obvious stuff and put up a disclaimer but it's far from perfec…

Glad you like it!! I've been working on it on-and-off for about a year now. Roughly 2-3 months if I worked on it full-time I'm guessing. re: playback speed -> noted, will add some …

There are both in-document quizzes and larger exams (at a course level). I've also been playing around with adapting content based on their results (e.g. proactively nudging comple…

I gave it a shot with periplus.app :). Not perfect by any means, but it's a different UX than chat so you might find it interesting.

Honestly thought they would take this a bit further, there is only so much you can do with a prompt and chat. It seems fine for surface level bite-sized learning, but I can't see i…
