I love the amount of effort people on HN put into discussions and sharing their thoughts. Tons of value.
Example: this discussion about @boardisfun: https://t.co/r7lIDIkGwT
In that one link I've learnt about the history of attempted phygital board game devices - the fact that many in the past failed because of overly focusing on the children's education market, and that there's likely more potential in the TTRPG/adults board gaming space.
Not sure where I stand personally in that discussion but it was very informative to see. In either case, excited to see how Board develops!
@floguo Playing the Long Game resonated well with me. W/any PR going to my eng team I always say feel free to ignore if it will take more time to review than to do it yourself.
And "the long game" in my mind is making sure there's a return on investment for the time an engineer spends when they do review your PR - ie you grow and learn from those reviews and ideally PRs in the future are quicker to review.
@badlogicgames Across all AI apps I've used, memory has only been a hindrance.
To this day Windsurf pulls up some obscure config file variable saved in its memory (I don't even remember why) in the most unrelated situations.
@lucas__crespo@every FYI: this is a helpful system prompt from @rgb_prithvi to get Claude Code to be a more useful sounding board for cool, unique frontends: https://t.co/5E79KJLIDB
@lucas__crespo@danshipper@every Following for inspo. Completely agree with the message - in my mind what’s the point of having your own site if it’s cookie cutter and not a cool expression of who you are
Thinking through this: I believe there is a MacOS Apple TV app that the current setup would interface with, but then you’d want the TV to be on the Apple TV HDMI port rather than showing the Mac mirroring…
@mayfer would goatremote work in some form for the Apple TV OS so voice commands like “hey pick up where I left off in Game of Thrones” actually work? Siri is unfortunately still really terrible here and that’s a use case I’d pay for
@steveruizok@tldraw That would be amazing! I think board/card games are a natural fit for a blank canvas - that’s effectively what tabletop simulator is but there you don’t have a competent and entertaining AI opponent bundled into the canvas.
Spent some of my Sunday experimenting with @tldraw's agent to play Quoridor, one of my favorite board games.
It did a good job setting up the grid, pawns and wall count for each player and moving the pawn, but had a hard time not jumping over walls without additional prompting.
