The first metacognitive assessment
Cognitive training that rewires how you think | MVP - Beta
What it does
Most brain teasers are static in that you either solve it or you don't. I inverted that. Each question is designed to break a cognitive pattern you've learned, then the explanation teaches you a new way of thinking that directly prepares you for the next question. By question 20, your brain pathways have moved in ways it wasn't capable of at the start. This test via metacognition should inform how you approach work, challenges, learning, hiring etc. There's a free report at the end - enjoy.

Hey, HN Community! I'm a Brazilian software engineer, and my educational journey led to a significant discovery. During my master's degree, I often struggled to recall foundational concepts studied years earlier, which were crucial for my current studies. This challenge sparked a reevaluation of traditional note-taking and inspired the creation of cmaps.io. Human thinking is inherently associative, not linear. We often draw connections between learned concepts unconsciously. To leverage this natural process, making these connections explicit is essential – and that's precisely what cmaps.io…

Hi HN, I'm the creator of this project. For the past months, I've been working on building an AI agent that could move beyond simple generation and tackle inventive challenges autonomously. The core idea was to create a system with a "metacognitive loop"—the ability to recognize when it's stuck on a fundamental problem and then launch a sub-mission to solve that specific bottleneck before continuing. The linked article is a deeper introduction to the system's architecture and a snapshot from a recent run. I tried to design it to be evidence-grounded and self-critical to avoid the pitfalls of…

Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
