Fun little project, had Gemini 2.5 Pro summarize HN's top 30 each hour, both the stories and comment sections. Pretty impressed with Gemini 2.5. It's probably the first model other than Claude 3.7 Sonnet where I actually find the output readable. I normally use 3.7 Sonnet for coding, but used Gemini for the codegen on this one as well. Was pretty impressed! Using Cursor, it seemed to instruction-follow better than Claude generally does, and remain lucid during very long agent sessions. Thanks for your feedback!

I'm building a Telegram bot to practice Dutch. GPT-4o-mini kept picking vocabulary words I already knew, so I built a classical NLP pipeline to do it instead. It takes a short text + learner level (A0–B1) and returns the best words to study, using Stanza for parsing and corpus frequency ranks (SUBTLEX-NL, srLex, SUBTLEX-US) for scoring. Wins at A1/A2, loses at A0 where the LLM picks more obvious words. I also tried adding multi-word phrases (ADJ+NOUN, VERB+NOUN, phrasal verbs) backed by NPMI-scored collocation whitelists. Couldn't beat GPT there because it just "knows" which phrases…

Hey HN! Thank you for all the support and feedback on my original submission 2 months ago. I've been improving the backend using a MCTS/AlphaZero approach and it's currently producing much better results. My long term goal is to allow users to manage multiple projects, deployed autonomously, both from scratch and by making continual updates all prompted with natural language. The cost of each project has been lowered to $9 as performance with smaller models has improved (I migrated from Claude-3-Opus to gemini-1.5-flash). Thanks for checking it out!

Hi HN — I built Vocab Top because I kept looking up the same words over and over and never retaining them. Dictionary definitions weren't sticking. The idea: use generative AI to surround every word with multiple memory anchors — a custom image, a mnemonic trick, example sentences, native audio, and grammatical forms — so your brain has more to hold onto. Tech stack: Next.js 16, React 19, Tailwind CSS. The AI generation uses Google Gemini and FriendliAI. Audio is Google Cloud TTS. Words are saved to local storage — no account required. The newest feature is Word Forms: when you search any…

Hi HN! In the last couple of weeks I've been working on Cranki: Cranki = Crosswords + Anki. (It's a stupid name tbh, haha) I like doing crosswords in Spanish (to learn vocab) but none of the apps out there allowed me to use my own list of words that I come across. So I built one instead. It's entirely client-side. No server, no database, no accounts, etc. Your words and stats are stored in local storage. I built this for myself but let me know if you like it!

Hey HN, I just updated my project that compares some LLMs. It uses your prompt for all the models and runs at the same time. You can see the results being generated in real-time and decide what's the best for your use case. I'm open to any suggestions and feedback. Thanks!

I have been interested in neural nets since the 90's. I've done quite a bit of reading, but never gotten around to writing code. I used Gemini in place of Wikipedia to fill in the gaps of my knowledge. The coolest part of this was learning about dual numbers. You can see in early commits that I did not yet know about auto-diff; I was thinking I'd have to integrate a CAS library or something. Now, I'm off to play with TensorFlow.

I didn’t open a Vocabulary app this week. Still learned 100 words. That surprised me — because I’ve tried to learn vocabulary more times than I can count. The pattern was always the same: Download an app → Study hard for a few days → Miss a week → Forget everything. Not because I’m lazy. But because learning vocab requires too much effort. 10 years ago, I even had an idea called “5s English” — learn just 5 seconds a day. The design was good. The idea was solid. But I couldn’t manage the team, so it died. Years later, a friend told me about an alarm app that won’t stop ringing unless you…

I was inspired by the notification summaries on iOS 18 and really liked the idea of AI giving you a quick preview of the content before going to the content. I applied that to HN and built a Chrome extension that summarizes the sentiment and content of HN comments and previews it right next to the stories on the homepage. Makes it so much easier to decide whether I want to delve into the HN comments of a story. It gave me a chance to play with Gemini 1.5 Flash-8B which has been great. Super fast, super cheap, huge context and does a great john on basic tasks like summarizing comment threads.…
