Hey thanks for checking it out. Anki is in many ways a great tool and one that I’ve used extensively myself in the past. I felt that the UI could be improved however and that certain features were lacking. One high-level goal was to build a

Hey! As many have already mentioned in this thread, you might want to look into spaced repetition if you haven’t already. To summarize, it’s a simple algorithm that forces you to recall something at an increasing interval until it is commit

The capacitive touch screen was necessary but alone wouldn’t have meant much without the revolutionizing software stack. You may think “revolutionizing” seems hyperbolic here but a lot of people forget or don't realize how truly far be

Working on a consumer SaaS startup and I strongly disagree. A virtual machine on something like DigitalOcean does not provide any of the nice abstractions that something like a Google Cloud Run (or similar on AWS/Azure) provides. The a

Completely agree regarding dense cities. Just to add to this, I recently moved to NYC from the west coast at the ripe age of 40. I decided to join a co-working space so I could meet new people (I did not know anyone here). It has been surpr

Thank you for the response. I didn't realize there was a different version of the chrome plugin. Will give it a try!

This is the beauty of cloud run. There is literally no difference in how you build your application. I can run my codebase locally using docker with no changes and no dependencies on the type of external libraries you'd need for AWS la

This is an awesome initiative! I'm using slate to build a web based flash card application that I'm hoping to release soon. It's been an absolute breeze to use as far as editor frameworks goes. I played around with a few othe
