Hey there, just wanted to thank you because you also fixed my Twitter Spaces downloader app[0]! After the API changes the default bearer token I was using (same as yours) stopped working, but after changing the same way you all's back to normal :D
There are plenty of invites going around. I've been on Bluesky for about a month now and have gotten half a dozen invites.
The thing that is, however, making Bluesky a genuinely pleasant place to hang out, even despite its size (it's getting relatively large for pleasantness!) is that the invite code system requires that, even with that large number of invite codes, somebody wants to see your posts. It is a pretty strong high-pass filter; they're just scarce enough to value giving them to folks who are going to make for interesting reading.
Been trying to find one through Twitter but haven't had any luck, would super appreciate an invite!
Reading and writing have served humanity well.
We can see the impact of outsourcing thinking in modernity, via the simplicity of likes and retweets.
While ChatGPT can be a helpful tool, the issue is that many will substitute rather than augment. It is a giant language averaging machine, which will bring many people up, but bring the other half down, though not quite because the upper echelons will know better than to parrot the parrot.
Summarizing a text will remove the nuance of meaning captured by the authors' words.
Generating words will make your writing blasé.
Do you think ChatGPT can converse like this?
One might entertain a contrary perspective on the issue of ChatGPT. Rather than being a monolithic linguistic equalizer, it could be seen as a tool, a canvas with a wide spectrum of applications. Sure, some may choose to use it as a crutch, diluting their creativity, yet others might harness it as a springboard, leveraging it to explore new ideas and articulate them in ways they might not have otherwise.
Consequently, the notion that ChatGPT could 'bring down' the more skilled among us may warrant further scrutiny. Isn't it possible that the 'upper echelons' might find novel ways to employ this tool, enhancing rather than undermining their capabilities?
Similarly, while summarization can be a blunt instrument, stripping away nuance, it can also be a scalpel, cutting through verbosity to deliver clear, concise communication. What if ChatGPT could serve as a tutor, teaching us the art of brevity?
The generated words may risk becoming 'blasé', as you eloquently put it, but again, isn't it contingent on how it's used? Can we not find ways to ensure our individual voice still shines through?
So, while I understand and respect your concerns, I posit that our apprehensions should not eclipse the potential that tools like ChatGPT offer us. It might not just be a 'parrot' – but a catalyst for the evolution of human communication.
Though I'm hoping you didn't suspect it, I should warn you this comment was written by you know what (who?).

I remember reading the original version and thinking "Ah, this would be so much more grokkable if only I knew Haskell"... Delusions of grandeur are a marvelous thing!
They took away full screen viewing of someone's shared screen on the browser version. I only use the browser because I run ubuntu. It really sucks now to have someone try and show you their code.
I _think_ it still works as expected if you enter fullscreen mode from the browser itself, unless I'm misremembering.

Personally, I've had more trouble understanding the PPU behavior than i did about the cpu instructions and timings.
I'd mostly been going off of The Ultimate Game Boy Talk[0] and the pandocs[1]. In trying to quickly dig up some resources now, I found what at first glance looks like a good blog series[2], so I might take some time to squint at them soon.
If any HNer has other good resources describing it, I'd be thrilled. It's been a couple years since I've hacked on my own emulator, and I got through implementing quite a bit of the behavior. As I recall, I was able to get serial output from the test roms, which was pretty cool. I put it down after getting frustrated trying to render the screen.

Hey there! I've been working on a Game Boy emulator since last year and found the GameRoy project, which translates the PPU's logic from SameBoy, the (AFAIK) most accurate GB emulator around. I basically copied the PPU logic into my emulator and replaced the "state" property (an integer) with enums for some extra clarity.

Anyone can create their own market with an arbitrary number of options. The submission links to Argentina's presidential elections market, feel free to try it in the Goerli testnet and let me know in the comments if you need some testnet USDC to play with it.
The "Explore markets" option is super barebones but should at least give you the list of all created markets.
I plan on doing a release on the Polygon network, but I'd love to have some feedback for the beta version.
The whole code is open source but honestly pretty illegible at the moment. I need to dedicate a day to splitting/reorganizing the code, and probably start to consider an actual framework instead of vanilla JS. If all that hasn't scared you away: https://github.com/chiplis/gambeth
I'm looking for people willing to contribute to a UI revamp but PR's are welcome on anything and everything, all of the time.
