  • I had the same experience, but I recently helped my sister with a homework essay and she had a full page with the exact requirements and how they were graded.
    90% of the points were for content, the types of arguments, proper structure and such. Only 10% were for spelling and punctuation.
    Meaning she could hand in a complete mess, but as long as her argument was solid and she divided the introduction, arguments and conclusion into paragraphs, she’d still get a 9/10. No grumpy teachers docking half her grade for a few commas. She gets similar detailed instructions for every subject where I used to struggle with vague assignments like “give a good presentation”. It was so bad sometimes, the teacher let the class grade each other.

  • How could you even determine that? And if you have a translation available and you know what’s wrong with it, why wouldn’t you simply fix the mistakes? What do you need the AI for?

    Netflix subs are often quite shit, so I don’t doubt that you could improve them, with or without the help of an LLM.





  • Hana wa Saku, Shura no Gotoku
    I didn’t really have high expectations of this, but the first episode did a good job with the animation supporting the poems, so I kept watching. Sadly, the entire series was setting up for a championship arch that didn’t actually appear. Instead, the climax/resolution of the last episodes introduced a bunch of new characters and some family drama that would have needed 5 episodes to properly explore, so it just fell flat. They introduced plenty of interesting characters for a cool qualifier event or something, I just wanted Hana to read more poems. That’s what hooked your viewers, it’s what sets you apart, so use it.

    Really solid, punchy animation. Well choreographed action. Wormies.

    Love how it combines a sports story with a romance story without compromising on either. All likeable characters getting into believable drama and it never feels like the writing is stalling, every episode develops the characters and story in an interesting way. And outside of the romance, I love to see Taiki train hard, play good badminton and beat strong rivals.




  • It’s definitely possible to store the stories in columns, but there’s also very little reason to do it. I think filepath in SQL and the stories in separate files in whatever format makes the most sense (html, txt, epub). If you ever want to search the stories for keywords, write a python script to build indexes in SQL, performs much better than doing LIKE on a maxed out varchar column.

    I was thinking maybe Elastisearch, but I don’t know how much work that is to set up. For a hobby project, writing your own indexer isn’t too hard and might be more fun and easier to maintain than an industry-grade solution.
