I started work on making books available within Popcorn-Time
I don't have a way to find and curate audiobooks. Plus, LibGen books are already available on IPFS so all I need is collect links. I have been running https://learnawesome.org/ so books seemed far more approachable.

Show HN: Lurnby, a tool for better learning, is now open source
Fantastic! I'll have a deeper look and see if there's any opportunities for integrating this into https://learnawesome.org (which is also open-source).

Ask HN: What is your “I don't care if this succeeds” project?
I am building https://learnawesome.org
It's an attempt to organize world's knowledge. Right now, it looks like GoodReads-like social network for learning resources organized by topics, formats, difficulty levels etc. But there's a knowledge-graph that separates ideas and the medium those ideas are expressed in. For eg: "Sapiens - the book" and "TED Talk given by Yuval Harari" are connected to the same node.
This idea isn't anything new. Here is Danny Hillis talking about it at OSCON 2012: https://youtu.be/wKcZ8ozCah0

What is the best place to find a Rails mentor?

Is there an app like Goodreads that actually has an easy UI?
Perhaps https://learnawesome.org/.

How to circumvent Sci-Hub ISP block
I have been dealing with the same problem for curating resources at https://learnawesome.org. Projects like Openlibrary do collect unique identifiers for _books_, but for everything else, it mostly takes manual effort. For example, I collect talks/podcasts by the author where they discuss ideas from their books. Then there are summaries written by others.

Show HN: Vellum – An interactive list of nonfiction books reviewed by academics
This is a fantastic effort! Kudos :-)
I have been collecting learning resources and their reviews by experts at https://learnawesome.org/ (open-source, built with Ruby on Rails and TailwindCSS). Would you be kind enough to share the raw JSON files for their books?
LearnAwesome has its own topic taxonomy so it will still require tagging topics manually, but it can save me some effort on scraping/parsing LSE/Nature sites.

Kenneth Kuttler's Free Math Books
I have been adding a number of these free books at https://learnawesome.org/
Do you really care about the format being PDF or is it about the books being FREE? I'd like to make common queries like yours easier. LearnAwesome is open-source, so of course you're free to contribute: https://github.com/learn-awesome/learn

3 YEARS On My Side Project!
I've learned so much while making this project into my personal website (dustinbrett.com). It's made me a much better web developer as I have tried to emulate a desktop environment with pixel perfect accuracy using CSS, HTML & JavaScript.

Unpopular Opinion: Desktop GUI is the most efficient and fulfilling way of Human-Computer Interaction
As someone who built a website around this idea, I agree! The desktop metaphor is powerful. If anyone wants to check it out it's at https://dustinbrett.com

Show HN: ExaequOS, a new OS running in a web browser
Very cool! It's always refreshing to see the "OS in the browser" projects that try and actually make something functional. I've been working on one myself for nearly 3 years now, called daedalOS (https://github.com/DustinBrett/daedalOS).
The WASM kernel idea is very cool and I hope one day to be able to add something similar to my project. I think you are onto something and I am excited to see your progress as you implement the GUI.

Os.js – open-source JavaScript web desktop platform with a window manager
If you want some Browserception, my desktop environment (https://dustinbrett.com/) can indeed do this. But after a few levels in Chromium you need to add a random query string (/?a=1) to the URL otherwise it stops working.
