The '.5' models are always the actual production-ready versions. GPT-5 was for the mainstream hype, 5.5 is for the developers. I don't need it to be magically smarter; just give me lower latency, cheaper API tokens, and reliable tool-calling without hallucinations.

Fool me once... I still haven't forgiven him for Godus or the Curiosity cube. Now he's just sprinkling the current 'AI' buzzword on top of his usual over-promising. Wake me up when the actual game is out and reviewed.

New comment by kaant in "Can you review my online toolbox website?"

kaant — Wed, 07 Jan 2026 12:57:45 +0000

I’d really like some blunt feedback on the UX + “what is this site even for” part. It’s basically an online toolbox of small utilities (networking stuff, text/data converters, encoders/decoders, lookup tools, etc). I’m trying to make it actually useful and easy to navigate, not just a random list of tools.

Questions (answer any subset, whatever you feel like):

In the first ~10 seconds, is it obvious what the site is for and who it’s for?

Does the homepage/categories feel too much / overwhelming? what would you simplify first?

How would you expect to find a tool on a site like this (search, tags, categories…)? what’s missing?

Trust/privacy wise: what would you need to see to feel comfortable using it (especially for paste/upload type tools)?

Anything that feels useless or duplicate that I should just remove/merge?

If you’d bookmark it: what 1–2 things would need to stand out?

Thanks in advance — genuinely appreciate any honest feedback.

Can you review my online toolbox website?

Show HN: Omnvert Network Toolkits Ping/MTR,DNS,Headers,TLS,RDAP,PCAFlowsP→JSON

kaant — Tue, 30 Dec 2025 10:25:47 +0000

I built Omnvert as a fast, privacy-first toolbox for the checks I repeat during incidents and deployments: ping/MTR, DNS propagation (recursive vs authoritative), redirect chains + headers, TLS handshake details, RDAP/WHOIS, ASN/prefix, subnet math — plus a small PCAP toolkit to turn captures into scriptable output (JSON/NDJSON), top conversations, and flow exports.
