Show HN: Learn to Read with SRS++https://letterspractice.com/showHNHey everyone. The short story here is that I've made an early literacy app that you are encouraged to try with your pre-literate or only-sorta-literate kids. It's intended to be minimalist, friendly, and efficient. Its preferred-usage pattern is parent-child co-use, and my hope is that it resonates values-wise with parents who are generally screen-time averse (I am such a parent).The main landing page is https://letterspractice.com. The submission link is an annotated view of a live study session, showing some of how the engine surfaces content, and how user-interactions feed back into the engine.The slightly longer story is that (like many around here) I've had a long interest in Anki and SRS generally, and been frustrated at the gap between its effectiveness (high) and its success with respect to penetration into the mainstream (low).So: many years ago I started playing with a web based framework ( https://github.com/patched-network/vue-skuilder ) for SRS based apps with a broader in

Show HN: Figment – An AI that I made my friends talk to for 2 weekshttps://figment.computer/For the past 3 weeks, I've been hacking on a personal AI that you can text.It's curious about you & proactively figures out ways to help you, while still feeling like a friend.Its personality & proactivity is probably what I've spent the most time working on for this project, testing out a bunch of different models and prompts etc. It has more work to be done for sure, but I kinda like how it's come to be so far!It has its own 24/7 computer and browser (still working on improving its use of them!), with its own curiosities & proactivity.For ex, it might decide to surf the web on its own every once in a while, and if it comes across anything that it feels might be interesting to you, it'll text you it.In the past 2 weeks of my friends using it, I've noticed this particular personal ai setup/harness produce a ton of emergent magical moments that I thought were pretty cool.For ex, my roommate @aadilpickle signed up 2 weeks ago, told it about sfpursuit.org and his sfalexandria.com project

Webb reveals millions of stars in nearby galaxyhttps://www.esa.int/Science_Exploration/Space_Science/Webb/Webb_reveals_millions_of_stars_in_nearby_galaxyIn new images from the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope to celebrate its fourth science anniversary, a familiar galaxy transforms into something far richer, and far more complex, than ever seen before. Webb’s unprecedented sensitivity across near- and mid-infrared wavelengths cuts through the thick lanes of dust that obscure Centaurus A’s centre in visible light, showing a densely packed tapestry of individual stars and an active, everchanging galaxy. These images mark four years of better-than-anticipated performance and successful science operations for the most powerful space telescope in history.

Show HN: I hated how much my 12-year-old played Roblox, so we built our own FPShttps://cooked.houseI'm a father of two, 7 and 12. They are obsessed with Roblox, especially Rivals.Like a lot of parents, we did not love it. We tried the usual things: block it, limit it, set timers." It became a daily battle, a lose-lose situation.So I flipped the problem.Instead of fighting what they loved, I decided to lean into it, but with a twist.Why just play an FPS when you could build one together?My kids became the PMs. Claude and I became their engineer.I was shocked by how fast we moved. We picked a name, Cooked and started building.Get in. Lock in. Get cooked!In the first 3 hours, we had an actual FPS we could play together in the browser.Next day I invited my friend's two kids over. Suddenly, I had four PMs.We had 3 laptops, 1 iPad and 1 iPhone.So in 30mins we added mobile support and could play all 5 together.The kids would ask for features:"Can we have a rocket launcher that knocks people off the map?""The knife should stab faster when you hold it."I know almost nothing about FPS design,
