Erm, how to "use" it?

Or it's just the cassette thing rotating and that's it?


Doesn't work well on mobile, it's all spacebar based (hold and tap).

I'm on desktop on vivaldi, i'm holding spacebar and nothing happens

Wait. Wasn't address space separation an improvement?

This is going back to DOS age.


Never seen such a stable dithering before. Very nice!

That's not a "physical" version of game of life -- that's a digital version, like every version, but with bigger pixels.

Does make me wonder if it's possible to make a physical / analog / mechanical version of Game of Life.

fake edit: yes, kind of: https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/forums/topic/164622-moc-mec...


sure is - i made one using poker chips and a chessboard - i had to do the computations using my own brain though :-(

I think "physical" refers to the fact that you initialize the state by pressing physical buttons. That's quite accurate.

Well keyboard also has physical buttons. And mouse.

Are you running it in some kind of sandbox? Does it have sandboxing features?


I dont. I use this as my coding harness (replacement of gemini-cli/claudecode etc). I dont want to sandbox it because I expect it to be used only for coding on projects. I dont want to over complicate it.

I am building my own assistant as an AI harness - that is definitely getting sandboxed to run only as a VM on my Mac.


I use a sandbox example extension with comes with Pi, it uses the anthropic sandbox runtime (bubblewrap on linux). The runtime has one bug and needs one improvement (I've made PRs, no response yet). Pi's sandbox example extension does not block internal tools (read/write) according to rules, I've created a PR but can't submit because of Pi's OSS vacation BS... https://github.com/badlogic/pi-mono/compare/main...k3a:pi-mo... I am quite happy with my patched forks for now


I just told PI to generate itself a permissioned_* equivalents of read,write,bash,edit. Now, permissioned_read,permissioned_write,permissioned_edit have full access to anything from current dir and deeper, and permissioned_bash is always permission-gated.

Default read,edit,write,bash are disabled.

It seems to work really good.

Generally, I'm in awe. I think I've already changed the way I work.


I mean, what's the point of this app? It looks exactly like the web version, without any improvements over the abysmal HN threading.


I enjoy it for browsing, switching between articles. Thought others may enjoy it so I open sourced it. To each their own.


For me this is too much. I wish Zig all the best, but decisions like this make me want to jump off this sinking ship.


<insert a random "i made this" meme>


KDE window management is current peak.

I'm really baffeled the same mistakes and errors are being made over and over again in both Windows and macOS.

Just use KDE approach and it's done.

It's really disappointing that new OS versions are being marketed by a new look, which is not new at all, just rehashed look that was in use years ago but thrown away.


He just doesn't want to waste time on you and elegantly told you that you should find it in Wikipedia, as that's the definition he's using.
