TLDR: Practice where countries are on the world map https://www.samlearns.org/world-map

Hello HN,

...I keep making little web apps to practice geography, and since some people here enjoyed the previous version, I thought this one too. It's a simple game loop where you have to either tab or name countries, w/ some varying conditions like zoom levels.

Following feedback from last time, I reconsidered almost all of the game systems, fixing quite a few issues (too hard, too easy, too many boring islands, countries recurring often, confusing UX, ...). The stack is ts/vue and geojson, with some python for data crunching; learning algo built on top of FSRS.

It's all free, no-ads, no-signup and open source, in case you were wondering.

Feedback and ideas welcome!

Hope you get something out of this, cheers :)

The problem is simple: AI tokens are locked to individual products.

context : I was using both an agentic IDE and a Hostinger deployment agent. One day, I ran out of tokens on the deployment agent. To keep using it, I either had to wait for tokens to reset or upgrade to a higher subscription or buy tokens.

So basically, I had AI tokens, but I couldn’t use them where I needed them. or despite having tokens, we cannot use them.

As people start using more AI products, this could mean buying tokens again and again for different apps.

do you think this is a real problem that other people face, or could face in the future?

I get it, you want to show off how "cool" you are with your hijacked scrolling and 50 million animations. Does marketing in 2026 mean your potential customer's computer starts lagging with horrendous layouts and designs?

Nobody gives a shit. I'm not impressed. If it lags, I'm closing the tab. Maybe VCs think it is cool, but people like them think everything is cool.

"Oh but we're in the AGENTIC AGE, humans aren't reading our site" MF the AI agent can't even understand the website now with all your nonsense, and we need fkin VISUAL MODELS that after loading the site, wait 10 seconds, and then MAYBE it gets it.

For example, I saw all the buzz about Linear and I hadn't used it in a few years. Their website lags like a MF on my M1 max which sure, that's not the latest M4/5. I tried it on my desktop workstation and it just as bad. I don't have any of those reduce motion or no GPU accel, etc. It is just slow and laggy!

What are you guys doing? All these websites are horrendous. Stop it.

Why can't these people just tell us what the fuck they do as a company?

(not only speaking of Linear, which most of us here probably know, but various other startups which are boosted on X)
