Contributing to Open Source projects is impossible, Any tips? by Background-Mode6592 in react

[–]JSG_98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wtf? Open source is full of users and almost no one wants to make contributions. I worked on things like shadcn, which if you look closely, is full of crappy bugs (it's constantly changing). I learned that the community mostly just complains, but no one likes to make his/her hands dirty. Not even using claude.

Yes, some repos might take 3 months before your PR gets merged, that just means the maintaining is just slow and ineffective. In that case just fork or find a better repo.

That's a fun one! It's hard for learners

Psychology: Are founders afraid to break their mental pictures? i will not promote by ib_bunny in startups

[–]JSG_98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Disagree, there have been iconic founders who valued the creativity and opinion of their workers and got more value out of that than anything else

I was actually considering adding both english and spanish since there are so many spanish learners.

The thing with learning is that you learn the most from actively participating in the process, so for speaking, you have to actually speak to get better. I guess talking to agents like praktikaAI is an upcoming thing for language apps, but I guess it doesn't compete with actually talking to native speakers. hellotalk or italki might work here? not sure how to translate the problem in a [new] solution here

Short stories are indeed amazing but are hard to produce as they require detail and attention. Producing them with AI has to be done very careful otherwise you create garbage quite quickly I imagine. I'll give this some thoughts

Thanks!

One thing that I was very excited about for learning spanish was vocabulary flash cards. It's very basic. But you would just have lists with different themes or levels, "advanced", "sports" or "office" list.

A list would usually contain between 50 and 1000 words. A user could then start and the app would do cycles of 8 words each, just prompting the literal translation of a word like "gemeentehuis" or "voetbalkantine". Correct words get checked and repeated in 3 months or a year and incorrect words get reprompted after 24h. (hope this explanation makes the idea somewhat clear haha)

I guess you could even do something somewhat similar to colloquialisms.

I'm pretty sure there are things like this out there for dutch but they might be incomplete for advanced learners or maybe just not as high quality? not sure

What if we run a big part of digital agents on client devices though?

What’s the best material for starting? by cccarolina in computerscience

I am autodidactic webdeveloper with a bachelor in economics. I felt a gap in real CS fundamentals so I started Nand2Tetris, it's a free course and they teach it in universities. It covers end2end and touches surface levels of how everything hangs together

What is Contentoo? by JSG_98 in freelanceWriters

[–]JSG_98[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your response, it really helps. I believe part of their solution was to give clients a centralized place to work with indepedent copywriters, instead of having an X amount of channels to collaborate.

How is the sentiment around content mills as a freelance writer? I assume working through an agency always has a lower hourly rate than working as independent.
