hi, I don't use debian based linux so I can't test this, but I had some nits for the website: 1. I would specify the OS dependencies (apt and systemd), and 2. I would display the actual script under the install command to make it easier to review what's going on (faster that clicking the small github link and then opening the relevant file)


Hey. I liked your feedback, so I updated the website.

You can give it a shot in VM - I've done testing on macOS, and then used Ubuntu 24.04 home box to install it, also in multipass. In GitHub I put howto.


very cool, this makes me want to grind top spot


I am not sure the highscores get updated. I don't see HTTP requests or a websocket to communicate with the server


1. I like the idea, but I would have two main concerns:

- on the reliability of the information, especially for very specific subjects

- on privacy, if you're using cloud LLMs, even if the data shared to the LLM is most likely not sensitive

2. I would expect a subscription for a service like this, but depending on the pricing of the LLM you use I don't know if you could turn a profit


The reliability of the information depends on two factors:

* The quality of project resources that you're working with. You use your actual textbooks from class, the quality would be higher. Some random articles online, the quality would be worse. You have complete control over the source material that the LLM uses as context.

* The specific model that you're working with. The system is model-agnostic, you can bring your favorite model.

On privacy, I plan to make this a local-first application where you can bring your own LLM API key from any provider, and the API calls are made from your own machine to your LLM provider. In addition to a 3rd party LLM provider, you can use a local model running on your machine for maximum privacy. This is also the easiest way to ensure user ownership of their educational material.


"trusted by professionals at leading companies: google, spotify, netflix, microsoft", really?


you can indeed use channels to implement sync.Cond functionnality, I came across this article a while ago : https://blogtitle.github.io/go-advanced-concurrency-patterns... (scroll down to Condition)


Very sorry, I messed up my deployment... It should be up now
