Show HN: DER DIE DAS – learn German noun gender with spaced repetition and games

Hacker News - Wed, 09/16/2026 - 6:08am

I built this app for my language buddy who is learning German (while he teaches me Chinese). He struggled so much with German articles/determiners. So I made this, it also teaches article changes and noun declensions. There is spaced repetition, audio loops, multi-player games, some cultural lessons and more. It would be nice to get some feedback from German learners!

Ask HN: What's the most economical approach to the most tokens?

Hacker News - Wed, 09/16/2026 - 6:02am

I'm doing web developement, and game development for a hobby project. I've tried lots of harnesses / IDE's - Best I've found is VSCodium.+ Cline + Openrouter, using discounted models (GLM 5.3 Flash is 50% off atm for example) I used Cursor for the last year - it's been decent. But I'm unhappy with the direction their going (it's largely just Grok Code at this stage...) Nobody advertises token limits - so it's pretty hard to compare, if you've used multiple tools in the last couple of months - what's your experience been? Will I be able to beat my Openrouter setup on cost per token via a useful model by subscribing to one of these?

In my opinion - Grok 4.6 seems comperable with GLM 5.3 Flash. Deepseek 4.1 is my daily driver. I use Sol or Fable for hard problems - but it's expensive man...

Please share your opinions.
