Hello HN, After seeing all of the pushback and negative sentiment regarding GitHub and its poor reliability and everyone trying to move off of it, I decided to build this to make the transition easier. It's the second half of a two-part project. Shotgun ( https://github.com/ThatXliner/shotgun ) diffs two OpenAPI specs and auto-maps what lines up, which turns out to be 60-80% of endpoints when both APIs are in the same domain. Anvil is the opinionated result of running that on GitHub vs Forgejo and then hand-fixing everything the auto-mapping got wrong or couldn't express. Landing page with a…

I had to develop a course related to quantum chemistry and unfortunately, Claude just kept writing it in its own very annoying claude-speak. It actually cost our team a lot of time and tokens to wrestle it to just speak like a normal human.

I wrote a simple "trivia" game to get a sense about how well calibrated you are in terms of how well you know things: https://est.alejo.ch You get ten simple "what happened first" questions and give a confidence level (for each answer). The game tracks your success rates per confidence level and gives you a calibration graph/table (e.g., "you consistently over-estimate your success rate"). You can play multiple times to see aggregated statistics. After 60 games (480 questions), I found out that I am relatively well-calibrated, though I should ~never bet under 60% (for this specific type of bi…
