Happy Lunar New Year!

My son recently started showing interest in learning Mandarin thanks to some singing books sent by a friend of ours.

I made this tool to help us expand our vocabulary and enable us to communicate about every day stuff.

My favorite part as I dabble in Mandarin is that there is no verb conjugation! Grammar tends to be fairly simple, too, which means that you can start saying intelligible sentences quickly by picking up common words.

The toughest part so far is hearing and producing words with the right tones. To my untrained American ears, I often can't tell the difference between words that differ only in their tone. It's been helpful to see the words written in pinyin and spoken aloud using this communication board.

I shared some technical details here:

I’ve been curious about how different VCs stack up in terms of the number of investments they’ve made versus the number of exits (acquisitions, IPOs, etc.) they’ve seen. To satisfy that curiosity—and hopefully share something useful—I created a simple chart that compares VCs’ total investments against their exits.

Why I built this:

I was looking for a quick visual snapshot of which firms are most active and how many of their deals have led to notable exits.

While it’s not a definitive measure of a VC’s success, it’s still an interesting proxy, especially for anyone researching the track records of various funds.","time":1737479409,"title":"Show HN: Chart of VCs Success Rate","type":"story","url":"https://startups.mikealche.com/vcs"}],[42771676,{"by":"lisper","descendants":313,"id":42771676,"kids":[42771864,42775217,42772762,42772517,42773183,42772224,42774530,42773453,42783882,42772392,42773119,42775050,42771778,42774805,42773033,42772511,42773378,42779873,42774506,42772427,42772366,42772414,42772352,42772653,42781153,42777621,42772196,42773586,42773897,42776748,42778098,42772913,42779137,42772507,42781358,42773169,42777583,42773519,42780049,42780107,42785238,42778336,42774636,42772706,42776834,42775304,42772148,42773744,42780541,42772887,42771814,42772121,42771913,42772396],"score":547,"time":1737398445,"title":"I am (not) a failure: Lessons learned from six failed startup attempts","type":"story","url":"http://blog.rongarret.info/2025/01/i-am-not-failure-lessons-learned-from.html"}],[42773134,{"by":"zfg","descendants":46,"id":42773134,"kids":[42774951,42775228,42773277,42773343],"score":21,"time":1737407697,"title":"BYD is about to open another EV plant overseas with 150,000 vehicle capacity","type":"story","url":"https://electrek.co/2025/01/20/byd-open-new-ev-plant-overseas-150000-vehicle-capacity/"}]]
