I played all the way through Space Age on a M1 Macbook Air no problem.

Sounds like electron but for cli

I does indeed bundle it's runtime into the executable, but this is not dissimilar from Go bundling it's gc into every executable.

Granted a compiled hello world Go program will be <2mb while a similar compiled Deno program will be more like 70. I imagine many usecases may not have a storage constraint though, and in that case why not?

I've been working on an app that will use ai to decorate my Anki cards with audio/example sentences/images. The more I get into it though, the more I think I may just end up writing my own flashcard app. I feel like most of the project has been spent wrestling with AnkiConnect, while the fun stuff has been fairly simple.

I personally love this. I have a pretty strong distaste for bright screens everywhere and rather like the look of e-ink screens. I'd love a future where we move away from putting up LCD panels on every surface we can advertise on.

I'd like a smaller one in my home that I could interact with programmatically. Something that could hold weather forecasts, family calendar events, reminders, pictures, etc. I like the matte look of e-ink.

I love where you're going with this, nearly all of my little side projects have something to do with maps and bikes. No comment on how the routes are as I'm not really familiar with any good routes in bigger Euro cities, but as someone who rides around NYC a lot this would be really useful in making routes for visitors who aren't as keen on riding in NYC traffic.

Mobile needs some work. Are you planning on open sourcing this? I'm a mobile dev that might be able to clean that up a little. Good candidate for React Native.

I'm from South Carolina, pretty close to the border with North Carolina. All my life i've heard that South Carolina's roads are terrible, especially compared to North Carolina's _amazing_ roads.

Looking at this data though, it seems while NC edges out SC by a small margin on interstate roads, SC actually beats NC on local roads.

Take that, North Carolina!

I'm building a Twitter/Bluesky/Mastadon/Farcaster competitor targeted at the average HN reader. Usable but not yet launched. Anyone want to beta test it?

I'd give it a spin
