Awesome work, thank you!

Fantastic! Any plans to support other languages?

Wrote an mcp server for Cursor Background Agents. This makes Cursor agents accessible like any other tool: your AI-assisted IDE (Kilo, Cline, Roo, etc) can spin them up programmatically, fan out subtasks in parallel, or wire them into ci/cd pipelines. It’s useful for distributing long coding jobs, spreading out llm costs, and treating Cursor as just another composable backend service.

yes, super helpful - sequential thinking, DB access, browser automation, etc

Church - it's rare to read a sane comment like this on HN.

The world we constructed is pure hell for around 80 billion animals.

why should we wait for lab grown meat if we can go vegan right now?

> going against every bit of our human evolution

you're saying this typing on a _computer_ - how does that fit into human evolution?

IMO humans evolve in an ethical standpoint as well and tend to want to cause the least amount of suffering possible as we evolve. That is why we have medicine, don't usually own slaves, don't hit children, and don't abuse animals.

I got very positive feedback from students preparing for high school keystone exams (given that it can generate questions from a given online resource / PDF) so I'm pretty happy about that!

Yes, it's meaningless if the topic is mostly unknown to the learner. But that's not the goal of flashcards - the goal is to first read the text, and then reinforce what you learned with bite-sized questions/answers.

Everyone learns differently, I always found flashcards to be incredibly useful and entertaining.

It's partly due to the insane subsidies that livestock farming receives in the EU.

If meat was not heavily subsidised, it would be much, much more expensive.

> Sometimes I talk to my vegetarian friends and ask "If you want to be vegetarian, why don't you just eat natively vegetarian dishes? Why the fake meat?". So far no satisfying answer.

Because there are people who like the taste and consistency of meat, but object to killing animals.

> With no corresponding change to the amount of fuel used to climb up to cruising altitude

Yes, but

1) a plane flying a larger distance has to lift a heavier load of fuel

2) emissions tend to do more damage at high altitude than they do at ground level

so I would not discount the benefits of reducing flight distance as much as possible.
