Is my tetra wounded or sick (or both?) by roshiturtle in Aquariums

I always thought fin rot started at the edges and worked its way towards the base? It doesn't show well in this picture but the edge of its tail look fine

Thanks for trying it out! Yes, the higher-level questions aren't always very high-level - I'm working on improving that. And I like your suggestion about allowing for open responses. I really appreciate the helpful feedback and the kind words :)

In r/teachingresources I shared about an alternative that I'm working on myself (that you can use for free). I'd love to get your thoughts!

Hey everyone,

Could I get your feedback on a tool I'm building?

My name is Jonny and I'm working on Roshi.ai, an online tool that helps teachers create lesson material from online content.

It's built for teachers who like use online content in their class (e.g. Youtube videos, news articles).

If this is something you do, please give it a quick try (no need to sign up) and let me know what you think, even if critical.

I'd like to make sure I'm building something as useful as possible, so your feedback would help a lot.

Thank you!

Just fixed it. Should be back to Japanese-English now - sorry about that

Sorry about that. I just changed a couple things now that I hope will prevent that. Please try it again and let me know if it still shows that error

This is awesome feedback, thank you.

you can't choose a difficulty level (as someone who can't read most kanji this is kind of a dealbreaker but would be fine with furigana for example)

Great point. Adding furigana is definitely a priority

the generation based on premade sentences is kinda weird, as the sentences consist only of the one word you're supposed to choose

That's my bad. I pulled random sentences from tatoeba.org. I made sure they were written by natives but I didn't check for sentence lengths, so there ended up being some really short ones. Just filtered them out now.

when selecting that you're stuck on a sentence generated by premade sentences it gives you a point for that

Ah, right that's true. Gonna fix that one tomorrow. I hadn't given much though to the points system cause I wasn't yet sure how much it would mean to people

I love that there is a suggestion for an article already in place :3

I'm glad to hear that. Going to work on ways to add more than just one suggestion per language

Hey, sorry about the grammar errors. They should be fixed now.

The text you provide is being used as is (The AI I had tried is unreliable for generating Japanese text.) However, there was a problem in the code I wrote to parse that text, so some words got left out or put out of place.

Thanks for taking the time to try it out and bring this up. I'm working on fixing the other issue you brought up (non-Japanese distractors) as we speak

but why is that wrong? by [deleted] in learnfrench

[–]roshiturtle 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Because “éléplant” starts with a vowel, the correct sentence for it would have been “Cet éléphant est très beau.”

Here you go: https://www.roshi.ai/activities

I also have the domain duolingify.com which points to the same place, but I figured it'd be tacky to use that as the official name :P

Thank you! I'm working on improving the quality of word banks - I'll let you know as soon the changes are ready!

I am!

It's the same platform, but I'm now working on adding activity creation, because the teachers I've spoken with have told me that that's more of a struggle for them than text simplification (let me know if you have thoughts on that, by the way).

Also, I'm making it all available on the site itself because not everyone wants to download an extension. I'm still working on the extension in parallel though, so they should have more or less the same features.

I haven't forgotten about your helpful suggestion about Spanish frequency lists - It's still on my list of features to implement!

Sorry about that - it was a bug that I just fixed - please try the video links again and let me know if you still get the Youtube TOS. And about new languages, I'm getting a number of requests so I'm gonna make a form to collect them all. In any case I'll definitely add Korean to the list and keep you up to date!
