A subreddit dedicated to beta-reading
(it's naked and will stay naked for at least a week or two) There are stuff like Discord or Scribophile, which can provide good opportunites, but it's such a mess and sometimes it can be frustrating - for both parties. So, r/betareading is meant to become a platform for both parties to meet and exchange freely. I'll have more free time soon to work on the subreddit and promote it. Probably will add guidelines for both writers and beta-readers. Because a writer can name the genre of his text and his length, but beta-readers skills should be categorized and made public: from grammar to…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
(it's naked and will stay naked for at least a week or two) There are stuff like Discord or Scribophile, which can provide good opportunites, but it's such a mess and sometimes it can be frustrating - for both parties. So, r/betareading is meant to become a platform for both parties to meet and exchange freely. I'll have more free time soon to work on the subreddit and promote it. Probably will add guidelines for both writers and beta-readers. Because a writer can name the genre of his text and his length, but beta-readers skills should be categorized and made public: from grammar to pacing or character development, including favorite genres, format, languages spoken fluently and time available. And maybe a wiki afterwards. This has always existed presumably, it's time to make it more formal. For writers I see two advantages: - easier to send your copy to your stranger than maybe to a buddy - a good, well-read and well-trained beta-reader will provide better feedback than your bud For beta-readers I see one advantage: - easier than to lurk Scribophile for a month wondering wth happens over there, or to join Discord and read thousands of pages of Sonic fanfic https://www.reddit.com/r/betareading/ In the meantime, feel free to join and stick to the one and only rule existing for now; tag your titles with [R] or [BR]!

- PRPeer Review Beta – GitHub plus StackExchange for Scholarly Publishing2023 · peer-review.io · ▲6
Hi HN, I've had the idea for a scholarly publishing site that could crowdsource the work of the journals using concepts borrowed from Github and StackExchange and recombined for years. I finally got enough runway to take about 6 months off of work to build it. This is the result. It's still in beta, but the core MVP features - review, reputation, responses - are all there. I'm sure there are as yet to be found bugs, because I'm on my own and I've always been terrible at testing my own stuff. Right now it's best treated as non-archival pre-prints with review. I'm starting my next full time…
- SAStackCrunch – A platform to share your development experiences2018 · ▲7
Hello HN, My name is Deepak. I've created this platform (https://stackcrunch.io) where developers can share their experiences in form of short stories linked to real-world practical solutions on Q&A platforms. This project is currently in early access mode, where you can check out the platform & start writing your stories. Also, please do check out the launch article and how to create a story at https://stackcrunch.io/posts I'd love to hear back from the community. Warm Regards, Deepak

Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…
