Ask HN: How to write better tech blogs
I have a blog but it seems most people who are with my content hardly like it. I had a review recently that said I write like a person with ADHD. All I am asking for is a guide. What to start with. Length. I usually blog about vim which I started using 3-4months ago.

Show HN: All Books, All Languages (ABAL)
"All Books, All Languages", or ABAL for short, is a modern, web-based, parallel text language-learning application that I've been working on as a side project for about a year.
I've already received a lot of great feedback about the application among language learners. In addition to what I hope is an intuitive UI/UX, one of the unique things about ABAL is the way that pronunciations are customized to a user's native and target languages.
Systems like IPA (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Phonetic_Alphabe...) don't make pronunciation any easier to get right for a majority of - if not all - language learners. ABAL solves this by showing phonetic hints that are written in the user's native language script and are meant to be pronounced in the native language's voice.
The name All Books, All Languages is intentionally quixotic, as it serves to set the ambitious and unreachable goal of hosting all of humanity's written works while making them available to all language learners and readers across the globe!
Today, it hosts a number of generated short stories categorized by subject and CEFR level. I'm currently working on supporting (private) self-uploaded files, and works in the public domain. Work is also going into adding support for more languages, while evaluating and optimizing for cross-language translations accuracy.
It currently supports 56 languages (including Klingon and Latin!) - which comes out to 3080 permutations - or 3080 unique user profiles as I like to think of it. Both the marketing and application sites are fully internationalized - even response messages in 4xx responses use i18n. Quite a bit of work went into automating the i18n diff generation system to make sure I can release UI/UX changes quickly.
I hope you'll find it useful if you're learning a new language or need to practice one you already know. If you're not learning a new language, but wish you could read classics in a language you're fluent in, stay tuned!

Show HN: Council AI – Make better decisions with the wisdom of AI crowd
Hi everyone,
I built this app to let users make better decisions with the wisdom of the AI crowd. The app lets you see answers from five of the best AI companies, summarizes their answers for you, and provides a summary table. This process allows you to easily spot hallucinations in certain AI models. And it lets you make better decisions. Demo: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/qu8FTyaLc9k
There is a Debater that can debate any topic. Demo: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/JZzebg9gNt4
Then the app has a list of interesting questions to get you started with (think Quora). Demo: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/eJlbhXwZkTQ
There is also a social network where users can post questions and follow each other (think Twitter). Demo: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/rtTdWHrBUPA
In addition to this, it has several interesting councils (groups of AI assistants) that give you perspectives from "across the aisle". For example there is a "Politics" council that has a Democrat, Libertarian, and Republican. This way you can hear opinions from across the whole political spectrum. Or the "Parenting" council has a Permissive, Authoritative, and Authoritarian parent. This way you can see parenting advice from the whole parenting spectrum. Demo: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/waxX-M-qIVE
Please give it a try and let me know what you think. I'd greatly appreciate your honest feedback! So sorry for the Android users, but the app is currently available only on iOS.
Thanks, Alin Jula Founder of Council AI
