"subconscious" reasoning

Airlines process and charge your card directly. So a booking on Delta shows up as 'Delta Air Lines' and you keep credit card points.

No, never got email. Auto-marking words makes more sense.

This is a great, and b/c pulling from podcasts, can handle hard languages (eg. Hungarian). Smart. Some thoughts:

- Buttons to click thru examples for words, waiting is slow

- Partial load of podcast screen (for speed)

- Playback controls for podcasts would be nice (skip, ff, 1.5x)

- Define word in hover would probably be faster/more seamless + pronunciation

- Search bar for known words + alphabetical.. (OR if heard N times -> known)

Also, get the avoidance of gamification, but would like some sort of progress tracking (mins listened, lexicon, % of top 1k frequency). Will play some more when signups work.

BonBook optimizes for efficiency. What's your use case?

Maybe; BonBook never will.

Beta turns booking into two clicks.

Beta (and sim) intentionally does not search them.

The sim has limited ability to make it lightweight, free from signup and responsive in ~15 seconds.

Beta is much more capable.

GFlights is not used, link is there for comparison.

Depends on the detail. There are a few simple ones (eg flightlab).

Yes, this is a bit more complicated but on the roadmap. Great suggestion.
