LLMs no good for you?

Sounds like... genetics?

Wow, TIL "balkanize" is a word. I love that!

This is awesome! I've been casually learning German for 200+ days now, so this will make a great addition to my practice. Are the short stories generated by LLMs too?

I'd also argue the disparity in compensation between private companies and government agencies pushes top engineering talent to the former.

My thoughts exactly.

Cool read, mountain climbing has always amazed me. Zion is awesome too.

This is awesome.

Also interested!

Thank you! My process was: try to write it myself -> google it until it works -> ask ChatGPT how it can be better. I did this one component at a time, starting with the questions array, then answer buttons, timer logic, game over prompt, settings menu, etc.

I learned a hell of a lot more and a hell of a lot faster doing this project than I ever had in online courses/lessons/etc.

I was just happy to finally put something together. I've taken scattered programming lessons here and there but never sat down and created something on my own. Very happy to see people using it and learning with it! Outside of coding - I'm getting lots of interesting feedback on UI/UX.

The order of flags is randomized on page load, but incorrectly-answered flags are sent to the back of the question set. Those remain in the order they were answered.

Great ideas! Keeping them in mind for future updates.

Love the idea of a native language filter. Will keep this in mind!

Yup, no reason at all. Glad you liked it!

Neat ideas. Definitely considering them for future updates!

Damn, the S20's viewport is 15px shorter than the minimum width I had in mind. Responsive design is not fun. Will look into making the site more flexible - thanks for your feedback!

Good catch. The flag images come from https://flagpedia.net/. I'll notify the maintainer.

Great ideas here! Thanks for the feedback.

That's the part I'm most proud of - thank you!

It is supposed to be. This doesn't happen for me, but I did see someone else mention it too. I wonder if my randomization code could be improved.

This is helpful feedback. Thanks!

Nicely done! Although grueling, I think lots of the flags will stick with you. The game design is based off a Quizlet tool that I found to be really effective back in college. It forced you to get everything correct, sending incorrectly answered questions to the back of the question set. It was always the questions that took dozens of tries (like you experienced) that stuck with me.

Many seem to agree that the correct/incorrect answers could be clearer. Will look into this. Thanks for the feedback and kind words!

Thank you!

This is correct

Thanks for the kind words :)

Thanks for the feedback, screenshot, and kind words! Looking into making the design more responsive.
