I'm surprised that we are mentioning a paid site here and we are not mentioning tools like monkeytype and typeracer where you can do good practice for absolute free. In this particular space monkeytype is a super customizable tool that can fit tons of different people.

OP and site creator here.

Yeah I agree, monkeytype and typeracer are awesome! Huge fan and user of both.

I've just released this TypeQuicker app and I'm figuring out the best ways to monetize. I'm really hoping never run ads (I'm huge into anti-ad websites. I pay for things like Kagi for example, even though Google Search is free to use) which is why I'm settling for the freemium model (with some paid features).

For the record, everything the other sites you mentioned, I offer for free by the way :)

The paid features on https://www.typequicker.com/pricing are for AI powered, personalized learning. SmartPractice which analyses typing history and creates personalized, natural text focusing on user weakpoints, target practice to generate natural text based on certain sequences, etc.

Check out the video demo at the pricing page I added - I don't think any site offers this for free and that's all I'm charging for (I need to pay for the LLM API).

Let me know your thoughts! I'm really passionate about typing, keyboards, etc. I want to build the best typing platform and I want it to be valuable.

I signed up the site mentioned, most features are free and I like it. The biggest plus I see here compared to monkey or typeracer is that this site shows the hands and fingers visually. That makes it easier to follow and learn

Hey!

Thanks a lot for checking out the site - OP and creator here.

> That makes it easier to follow and learn

Yeah, that was my goal. It's pretty much what I used to learn as well.

I started this site ages and slowly added more and more features. I wanted to improve my coding skills while improving typing.

Primagaen always said to build what you want and use, so that's what I did haha

I will be adding many more features - I have a massive list! Thanks for the support. Any feedback is welcome: issues@typequicker.com

I learned with Typing of the Dead, its abandonware now and easy to find. Has lots of game modes and tutorials and is quite funny.

Prepare for a lot of copycat companies. Hey Devin, copy this company's software.

It will try and you end up with nothing but a bill from using Devin.

the most successful software will be a result of marketing and going viral (e.g. featured on HN) if the ais just constantly clone each other's apps.

Hey Devin, copy Devin?

And this is the problem of today's AI. It is a spam generation machine.

I've been using Comic Code for a while for coding and it is the best thing it ever happened to me professionally speaking.

It teaches me not to take myself too seriously

Exactly. Feels like a whiteboard.

I’ve been using the normal Comic Sans for 3-4 years now. I don’t mind the non-monospaced-ness.

Me too! Programming has never been as fun as it is nowadays.

I love Comic Code! First font I actually paid for.

Not a rewrite but...

There is a Roguelike Tutorial - In Rust (https://bfnightly.bracketproductions.com/)

IMHO the video game scene is better than ever. Maybe you don't like what 90% games have become and that is fair. But go to itch.io and you will find a wide array of different games that will for sure suit your tastes. Maybe they are not that popular.

They lost the opportunity of calling it Tinderin.

I think nobody mentioned Ackee https://ackee.electerious.com/

It is cookieless and that makes it really interesting

Just copy the contents in a file and

    gem install reline
    ruby yourfile.rb

It is a nice ascii demo of a ruby turning around

There will be more pro esport players with their ps4 pro than professionals using airpods pro for their respective jobs.

Nope, I'll bet that many, many professional consultants and lawyers will now use these to take conference calls in even more comfort than the originals. Seriously, if you spend all day on the phone (aka, a professional), they're awesome.

Yes, and if quality is better than AirPods 1, they can replace pro wireless microphone kits from Røde, Sennheiser etc., just like iPhone Pro can replace many cameras.
