This is without logging in, on: https://sprinklz.io/feed/home. Occurs in incognito too. Nothing blocked on the network so seems client side.

I get a "failed to load feed with name home" on first load. Recurs on hard refresh

This is really cool!

wyattsellon Graphing how the 10k* most common English words define each other

fixed, thanks for pointing that out.

wyattsellon Graphing how the 10k* most common English words define each other

The reason for this (I should have probably added a note to the site in hindsight), is that WordNet doesn't include definitions for these words in its corpus. This is why the count is less than 10,000: anything that WordNet doesn't have a definition for isn't included. I left a nod to this in the asterisk, but I realise now I didn't explain it anywhere.

From the old Princeton WordNet FAQ page (https://wordnet.princeton.edu/frequently-asked-questions):

> WordNet only contains "open-class words": nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs. Thus, excluded words include determiners, prepositions, pronouns, conjunctions, and particles.

I suppose I could have included them as source nodes (only outgoing), but I think they would have ended up connecting to a whole bunch of definitions, while not providing much in the way of interest.

Glad you like it. NetworkX for creating the graph and the layout; then SigmaJS for displaying it.

wyattsellon Show HN: Muky – A kid-friendly music player for iOS

Great idea — Though https://www.spotify.com/uk/kids/ exists, an app which consolidates them together for this purpose is smart. There might be an audience beyond just kids though: having Apple Music / Spotify / local media all in one app sounds pretty appealing.

Also, sweet landing page :) I hope you do well.

wyattsellon Show HN: Maxims: a scrappy embedding visualizer and commonplace book replacement

Thanks for the feedback — I wanted it to be multi-client though, so I could use it on my phone and laptop. Having it be optional is a good shout though :)

wyattsellon I made a small open-source GPT-3 brain dumping app

Haha, sometimes it tends to spew out strange responses if the input is too short. I think it struggles to not pull on its data set if there's not enough in teh prompt.

I was procrastinating writing college application essays, so decided to spend 3 days making a fun little app instead. This is my first post here - let me know what you think (or if I've posted this in the wrong place).
