Hey HN,

My side project that is (finally!) good enough state to share.

Lore and Quill is book site to discover books via a clean browsable interface so you can quickly see lots of books that can match your tastes. E.g. Here are books about Business and Technology : https://lorequill.com/books?gg=59&gg=906&fc=nonfic&ac=r

If you find this useful, you can also curate your bookshelf and share it with friends with the same interface.

Would love to get your feedback on it.

Thanks, MG

This looks really interesting. How does it differ from something like Amundsen : https://github.com/amundsen-io/amundsen

Slightly lower risk. Typically, if you are taking a loan, then you have a condition stating that the sale is contingent on the loan getting passed. If it does not, then the seller has to put the house on the market again and loses a few days and possibly value.

A really good article, and it has succeeded in inspiring me to read the book.

Share price is hardly meaningless. Most people (correctly, i might add) think in term of relative movement of the share price, since that is the easiest one to track. In fact, as the second line of the article says: "Shares in the giant online search and ads company rose more than 13% to $1,006, and are now up 41% since the start of 2013." Such a big jump in a big company is what makes this really newsworthy.

Wow ! These songs remind me of "traditional school songs" that a lot of universities have.

What was meant was: If there is a period of time when you get a lot of visits, lots of clicks, and abnormally high CTR. This could happen due to external factors, for example if make the front page of HN. Over time, this effect will vanish, but you will be stuck with high CTR estimates for the design that was in place when this happened for a long time.

I absolutely love this concept. The game mechanics have the potential to make the concepts extremely clear, though we might end up with a generation of people who need "algebra calculators". I suppose that is why he suggest in game points for doing things by hand.

This is a great idea. I can almost see my development time going down by a big factor and writing much more robust programs. I wonder, how hard it would be to do this in existing editors ?

Looks pretty neat ! It probably should not be called sgrep though since its not regex anymore ... sfind maybe ?

Its a great idea. Congratulations on getting it up and working. One feature that might work well is allowing the user to do "flow control" by replying to the email you sent.

The folks who set up the web-site are clearly not very saavy about building websites :-) But they seem very dedicated. They have a very impressive collection of papers set up.
