I use my google search history to find things.

I blog when I feel like writing rather than when I have something to write about. Then I go to https://myactivity.google.com/myactivity?pli=1&product=19 and see what I was researching in the last month or two.

Theres usually something there where the existing articles were out of date (because tech!) or maybe it took me multiple results to actually solve my own issue.

That might be a way for you to find things.

Also I write for myself, I'm basically documenting for my future self so I dont have to research the same thing again. Some of my tech posts are just 2 lines of shell script and brief description so I can search google for my own content later but these posts still seem to be useful to other people based on views.

I think this could work for any blog where you're just writing about your interests or hobbies!

I wish more documentation sites just loaded a wall of text with page anchors for navigation rather than separate pages. Ctrl-f/cmd-f is the best search engine for documentation

Yes! i think games like this could be useful for training aesthetic and relevancy output from the models.

Actually implementing that kind of feedback is beyond my skills with machine learning though!

Hey! Thanks for playing the game.

This ratio is describing the game shape (the games are automatically generated and they are all different depending on the wiki article content). 4/8 means that you needed 4 answers out of 8 for example. Having to select 8/8 is too hard and not fun for a game imho.

Some games have only 2 "answers" in total, so then i make you select all the correct answers, otherwise it's too easy. So the game shape would there would be 2/2.

There may be bugs of course. I'll take a look at that number later. I agree it's a bit confusing but I was trying to make the game more usable. It's tricky when the content is dynamic.

the primary selling point is to filter recruiter spam. if they don't fill in the form that's filtering in action. working perfectly as intended!

you can paste the link in to linked in messages. i just paste it into all of the spam i get once a fortight or so.

unfortunately linkedin don't provide an api or i would do this automatically

yea fair call! i just wanted to be able to stop recruiters spamming a candidate to find their filters so i limit the number of submissions they can make to a single candidate in a day.

ohh nice suggestion. i'll see if i can add a currency selector or maybe make it more generic.

it's difficult to fully internationalise it with so little time to spend on it tbh
