Needs an Agent skill! Gotta be more modern :)
system2•6h ago
I like how you spent $10 for the domain for this. :)
amarant•5h ago
10? That seems about $3 too much!

Bug report: I entered 3 + 4 and did not get a kinda or true.

This app is ngmi

golem14•5h ago
Similar report here:

70/10, 7.1-0.1 and srqt(49) also do not return true.

Is there a published SLA for the free version?

akoboldfrying•5h ago
BTW: For a tool that actually legitimately does this, look at Semgrep. Their playground example literally assigns 1 to a variable x, after which searching for "2" finds the expression "1 + x" in the code: https://semgrep.dev/playground/s/5rKgj
downboots•5h ago
no Roman numeral support either

I would have expected something other than false for "se7en".
fosco•3h ago
00000111 also came back false
wincy•3h ago
Well the all only has 77.7% uptime maybe it just returns wrong things while it’s down, that’s probably it. Try upgrading to Enterprise that’ll probably fix it.

Vulnerable to a distillation attack, unfortunately not much of a moat.

7.0000000000000001 evaluates to true.
silisili•5h ago
As does 6.9999999999999999.
geor9e•5h ago
true: 0x7, 007, 0b111

kinda: seven

false: siete, 111, VII

It's an inclusive app.

akoboldfrying•5h ago
Enterprise looks promising, but before I take this to upper management: How many sevens of uptime are we talking?
timcobb•4h ago
> 77.7% uptime SLA

looks like one 7

NooneAtAll3•4h ago
that's at least 3

+1. OP is clearly not read for the Agentic Era
hyperhello•5h ago
Eh, more better than Prolog.
bombcar•4h ago
I can use this as a random number generator; at least it's not nine.
rnoorda•3h ago
It's just as random as any other number!
cyode•4h ago
Heads up OP: I’m trying to get a pro license but your checkout flow is borked. Probably should fix ASAP before missing out on HN front page traffic.
dustimpact•4h ago
Apparently “seven” is only kinda seven. I would argue that seven is seven!
simeonmiteff•4h ago
Got to love that "kinda" is now a JSON bool value!
evanb•4h ago
Bug report: I tried 6.999999̅ and got false. So there's some nonstandard model of the reals being leveraged here.
Rendello•4h ago
Doesn't work for the other 125 encoded characters that are numerically seven, as defined in the Unicode Character Database:

chewbacha•3h ago
Well then, I won’t be a paying customer then.
CobrastanJorji•3h ago
That documentation is woefully inadequate. It provides only one example request, and then it shows two separate responses, and it doesn't make clear which one is associated with the request. It doesn't even describe the individual request fields, nor does it provide any response codes or a list of error codes/messages. How am I supposed to develop with this?

I do, however, appreciate the seven figure SLA. My service requires at least five nines of uptime, and seven figures is definitely more than five.

8n4vidtmkvmk•1h ago
Seven figures is indeed more than five figures. Too bad they're all 7s.
OsrsNeedsf2P•3h ago
I misread this as "is even" and was shocked that 46 returned false
8n4vidtmkvmk•1h ago
I think that's part of the joke. iseven is a real, non-joke package.
ollybee•1h ago
With 250k weekly downloads. That is no joke.
himata4113•3h ago
complaint: someone entered "seven" and it crashed my entire infrastructure because the output returned a non standard 'kinda'.
LatticeAnimal•3h ago
JSONQ supports quantum-aware booleans. Is there a reason you’re still using classical JSON parsing in 2026?
layer8•3h ago
It hallucinates 6.9999999999999996 to be seven.
iamgopal•3h ago
No other numbers were harmed in the making of this API.

But their feeling hurts, especially primes.

csmantle•3h ago
This Is Seven as a Service.
layer8•3h ago
No, this is the test harness for Seven as a Service.

vova_hn2•2h ago
I was almost sure that they do it client-side for a joke, but if you check the browser console, you can see that they actually make a request! You can even make the same request with curl and it works!

Although, making an HTTP request manually is quite inconvenient, so I'm waiting for Python SDK.

mwkaufma•2h ago
TIL 6+1 is not seven.
