The biggest problem with this and I say this being someone who is adamant about renting and not paying 3C for a house in Bangalore is that people around you will constantly be emotional. No one will be convinced by numbers if they've made up their mind to buy a house. People still think buying a house is an investment or they think it's security. They don't realize it'sore anxiety inducing to pay a loan. I gave up trying to convince anyone else and just keep my suggestion to myself now. I'm only going to buy a house in a tier 2 city one day. Or a village. I don't want to live in Bangalore if I can get the privilege to move out.

You're in luck. I built this especially to target series and you can ask questions across books whether they're in a series or not. I wanted to be able to ask questions of books that aren't even related to each other together.

Royal Road looks cool. Do you know if you can extract them into an epub? I have a user who extensively reads Web Novels and I wrote a blog post about that just today. He converts them to epubs AFAIK and uses them.

I've always written my blog for myself. I keep it as a record of what I'm working on, I suppose, or what I'm interested in. I was mildly surprise to find I had 279 blog posts on https://tech.stonecharioteer.com. I only ever write for myself. Whenever I try to write for an audience, I am not satisfied.

Do you mean overload to your senses? I always close most of my tabs. My policy is that if you don't bookmark, you don't care enough. Same goes for my local data. If I don't remember what's on my disk, or haven't backed it up periodically, I don't care about what's on it.

If you mean about RAM usage: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/tab-suspender/fiabc... is a good extension.

Thanks for reading it. At this point we are trying to balance technical vs showcase blog posts. Revealing too much for a product makes it easy for someone to reengineer with one prompt these days.

That's a good point, but our harness right now is very fine tuned towards kimi2.6, it's something we want to improve but it's just 2 broke dudes working on it right now.

As someone who loves FoxIt reader, I'm building https://merrilin.ai to be the best damned ebook reader out there, to support PDF and epub. FoxIt's annotation system is one of the best I've experienced and I want to design one that is just as good if not better.

Yay! Registrations to https://merrilin.ai are open and you can enjoy a free account for as long as I can afford to give it (I have no funding lol). The android app is ready for closed testing too, if you have an Android device, mail me at mail [at] stonecharioteer.com and I'll add you to the beta testing. ios is still a pain.

Could we talk and exchange notes? I have a calendar link on my profile. Or I'd be glad to book something on your calendar if you could share.

I think my favourite are from the Otherworld books by Tadd Williams. He dedicated it to his dad who doesn't read and never told him about it. The gag goes on to all the books into the series.

I interviewed there over a month ago and they ghosted me after 3 good rounds. I dodged a bullet it seems.
