I also just quit a job, but on my own terms. For me, I'm going to spend the next 6 months focusing on: - Fitness and Eating right - Baking bread - Learning Spanish with my partner - Travelling - After 1 month, I'll pick up coding

Haha yes. Try the readme [0] (the ide itself is best viewed on desktop or laptop, I didn’t design for mobile) But basically it’s an attempt at an ide for someone with ADHD, instead of holding a whole feature in your brain you can look at 1

Yes actually, on my GitHub account I shared a self modifying IDE (it can brick itself) [0] You can connect a model via an open router or Anthropic app key, and file tickets for an llm to “go to town” on editing the IDE itself The entire IDE

Ideas and execution is basically dead, because any idiot with a keyboard and a spare hour and some api credits can build almost anything you can now. I myself have built so much shit lately but it all feels incredibly shallow. I used to get

Thanks for checking it out and I agree 100% with your conclusion - it was an insanely fun engineering problem to work on, but I forgot to make the actual game fun lol. I know that for my next game! Next one will be fun not interesting :)

Working on this [0] Trying to make the world’s smallest maze solving neural network. Why? Because it’s fun. Why aren’t you? Current champion model is 14 bytes - it solves 96.5% of unseen mazes upto 21x21. Try it yourself on the website. Als

Haven’t read Nabokov, but Lovecraft is on the Bradbury end of the spectrum, but I love Lovecraft lol

Ray Bradbury has some great ideas, but I hate his writing style. It’s far too flowery, he’s on a spectrum that contains Hemingway at one extreme, and Bradbury near the other. I prefer Hemingway. Writing style at least.

How about a blog that contains its entire source code inline in the blog itself? [0] [0] - https://mjwg6zy.blog/ Such that copy pasting its contents reconstructs the blog byte for byte

Very simple tech stack ! Basically just JavaScript/typescript and leveraging LLMs to help with scaffolding - nothing special

Thank you I will update the frontend with a legend and some better alignment understanding with the visuals. As a quick note, they are mostly immediate environment observations like “is there a wall in front of me, to my left, to my right”

I will be reading this one asap, my goal is as small as possible ! So far 14 bytes has been hard for me to beat

Thank you for your feedback! I definitely will be - my experimentation outpaced my understanding a bit, so I’m slowing down to understand and verify my exact claims. One of the most fun projects I have ever worked on and I’m excited to shar

Facts: - 14 Bytes does not include the runtime! - All that counts towards the 14 Bytes is the model weights - Lack of git history is because my actual repo is private, this is just the frontend for now + models

Client side only and base64 compression tricks are a clever thread, and shameless self promotion but one I’ve been pulling with my dead but novel browser game [0] snibble.gg (tutorial sucks but once you get past it it’s fun to watch the bot

I’ve had a similar experience using LLMs to have mini personal breakthroughs. One thing I notice is many models say statements along the lines of “okay we have exhausted this thread it’s diminishing returns from here and we should stop and

You should be banned for your constant spamming of this. Its ridiculous. Every single AI post! Constant personal promotion.

Compression is so tricky. I got really into compression experimenting while I was developing my browser game. I was trying to compress entire human gameplay matches into a QR code, for upto 60 minutes of gameplay both single player and mult
