I grew up in the 2000s-2010s with little restriction on internet access and don't regret one bit. Because of this I was able to make friends from all over the world (Europe, Asia, the Middle East, South America, though nobody from Africa) via social media, and self-teach myself programming, art, math, and whatever else interested me. We can't leave out the benefits of social media access from this conversation either.
Very different environment back then. The content was minimal, lower quality, less engaging and there were no sophisticated algorithms. It's been finely tuned to be addictive in the last 15 years and can suck users in for hours and keep them up all night with endless content streams and dopamine hits. I also grew up in the 2000s era and am not disillusioned to think myspace and Facebook were in the same universe as TikTok and Instagram of today. The negatives for kids far outweigh the positives at this point.
An automated dubbed translation service. Supports translation into English, French, Spanish, German, Portuguese, Chinese, and Japanese. The other options on the market often have jarring audio artifacts and glitches, which Audiomatic avoids.
My friends and I are currently working on improving the voice quality and adding new features.
I enjoyed Art of Problem Solving books as a kid. Some of them are online, and you can probably get them second-hand for relatively cheap. They're better at provoking critical thinking than most math textbooks, and favor puzzle-solving and proofs. They're targeted towards K12, but are much more rigorous than most school curriculum, so they should be a good fit if you're currently reviewing GCSE-level math.
Each of their courses have an "Are You Ready" quiz. You can take the quiz associated with the textbook you're interested in to see if it's at an appropriate level.
Hey, I think this is a cool idea and looks like it could save a lot of time. It seems like an issue with these apps is that it's hard to determine sugar & oil content. Do you have a way of reducing this kind of uncertainty?
