Ask HN: Quiz or test you only take once

Hacker News - Sun, 04/20/2025 - 12:56pm

Quiz or challenge shared here. User allowed to take test only once or rather something about the test made subsequent attempts not valid. (You learn something about the test as you take it.) At the end you receive a percentile score relative to other users. I don't exactly remember the content or what was being tested. Possibly it had something to do with LLMs.

Ask HN: The Rise of Cross-Cultural Political Commentary

Hacker News - Sun, 04/20/2025 - 12:50pm

I've noticed an increasing trend of people from other countries, speaking different languages, commenting on our domestic political and social issues - and these posts often gain significant traction. I wonder what this signifies? It seems to have become more prevalent with the introduction of avatar features. I'm curious about why this is happening and what the underlying intentions might be. While profit motivation is likely a basic factor, I've recently been reading about hybrid warfare which has colored my perspective on this phenomenon. This response maintains your original observation about cross-cultural political commentary trends, preserves your questioning tone about motivations behind this trend, and includes your reference to hybrid warfare while keeping the professional, thoughtful tone appropriate for HackerNews discussions.

Show HN: TikTrotter – TikTok but for obscure travel trivia to beat doomscrolling

Hacker News - Sun, 04/20/2025 - 12:04pm

I'm trying to stop doomscrolling social media, so I made a website to help me.

I'm a huge traveler so I made a website that shows infinitely-scrolling obscure locations with interesting trivia in a TikTok-like manner.

I've been discovering a lot of cool places in the world and dropped my social media time a lot. The website is 100% free, no ads and no sign-up. Check it out if interested, I would appreciate some feedback.

Next step is to create a multiplayer trivia game where you can challenge your friends and see who knows more about the world.
