Duolingo free kinda’ sucks

I became a Duolingo Free user in 2015. Actually back then there wasn't even a paid option, it was truly free. Back then I started learning German, and even if I didn't advance too much, I could say that it helped me learn some basics. Don't ask me why though, but after a few months I stopped playing with it and never picked it up again until 2023. Boy, did it change a lot in the past 7 years. I wish I'd say it was a good change, but unfortunately I consider Duolingo Free sucks (the 2023 version that is) in comparison with the app I toyed around with in 2016.

Perfect Ear 2, an ideal Android app for musicians

Overview

About 15 years ago I watched one of the best movies surrounding the story of a pianist. “Legend of 1900” was the movie, a recommendation for anyone that values piano music. I was so impressed that I decide I’m going to learn something about piano music, though I got discouraged that […]

Mathician, think fast and type faster

Overview

I still remember that most of my school colleagues that had trouble with Math and other exact sciences were saying that Math won’t help them at all, ‘what good does it do to know complex equations?’. My belief was, and still is, that Math (and other exact sciences) sharpen your mind. […]

Algebra can be fun with Hands-on Equations

Overview

From the first year in school (7 years old) we all heard stories about the math teacher, the most feared one in the entire school. To put it into perspective, kids would rather be taught by a hybrid between Lord Voldemort and Sauron rather than take his class. Everyone would feel […]

Grammaropolis for Android – Grammar super omnia!

Overview

“What we wanted was flying cars, what we got was 140 characters”. It is a quote by Peter Thiel (founder of PayPal) and one of my favorite ones. I like it because it sums up very well the contrast between our past expectations regarding the future and the reality of present. […]

Master the art of Origami with “How to make 3D Origami”

As a child I, as many others around the world, played a lot with paper planes, paper boats and paper hats. They were very easy to create and fun to play with when there wasn’t much else you could do (no widely-spread Internet back then or other multimedia devices). Without knowing […]
