Kernel_task is often the os thermal throttling, when was the last time you hit the vents with a can of compressed air?

Extremely cool! I have never seen that type of piece randomizer, thanks for sharing

I enjoyed playing Linex! It reminds me of doing perfect clear solves in Tetris, but without the stress :) I appreciate the skip, next, and hole-fill power ups.

If you don't mind me asking, how are you doing piece generation? Is it random%7, drawing from a bag, or something else?

Hello fellow Tetris nerd with a -sort username :)

On the topic of reflexes decaying (I'm getting there, in my late 30s): Have you played Stackflow? It's a number go up roguelite disguised as an arcade brick stacking game, but the gravity is low enough that it is effectively turn based. More about 'deck' building, less about chaining PCs and C-Spins.

Very cool! I am a good Tetris player (in the top 10% of players) and wanted to give brick yeeting against an LLM a spin.

Some feedback: - Knowing the scoring system is helpful when going 1v1 high score

- Use a different randomization system, I kept getting starved for pieces like I. True random is fine, throwing a copy of every piece into a bag and then drawing them one by one is better (7 bag), nearly random with some lookbehind to prevent getting a string of ZSZS is solid, too (TGM randomizer)

- Piece rotation feels left-biased, and keeps making me mis-drop, like the T pieces shift to the left if you spin 4 times. Check out https://tetris.wiki/images/thumb/3/3d/SRS-pieces.png/300px-S... or https://tetris.wiki/images/b/b5/Tgm_basic_ars_description.pn... for examples of how other games are doing it.

- Clockwise and counter-clockwise rotation is important for human players, we can only hit so many keys per second

- re-mappable keys are also appreciated

Nice work, I'm going to keep watching.

Ooooh, I thought MPE was the same as MIDI 2.0. Turns out it ain't. My bad!

That was true a few years ago. The next few years are here :) take another look, you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

E: that sounded like snark, definitely not the intention, Ableton supports MPE now and they were lagging behind. Roger Linn keeps a list of MPE/MIDI2 compatible software and hardware, every time I revisit it, the list has grow : https://www.rogerlinndesign.com/support/support-linnstrument...

The blitz (maximize score in a set time) all-clear runs are pretty impressive, too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWETj11LmMw&t=7s

120-ish seems to to be where linters will yell these days.

Is this Max/MSP for JSON? Pretty cool!

It can break Marathon, but infinity spins are not a great strategy for Ultra, Sprint, or 1:1 multiplayer.

Depends on what rule book you're using :) Ghost pieces default to `on` in Guideline Tetris.

I am _really_ hoping the ID 3 will be roughly the cost of a GTI, but it's looking more like the cost of a Golf R.

Oh well, maybe in a few more years.

Yeah, I don't want those either.

I'm a bit scared of this. There are so many horror stories out there to the tune of, "Google banned my account, now I can't get into anything, and there's zero ways for me to get in touch with a human to talk about any avenues to fix it." and then extrapolating that to government.

VS Code runs on remote hosts through SSH, containers, or WSL: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/remote-overview

Kinda like a parallel universe swank/slime.

Ruby has definitely helped me get through some rough and tight spots. So many things are easily able to bum me out, while Ruby goes out of its way to make me happy.

A beloved safety blanket that makes it easy and fun to do boring everyday tasks.

Not very good keyboard player here: higher than ~~8ms is annoying for playing/recording. But 50ms probably isn't bad if say, you're blasting a message through a factory intercom, or piping music through a dental office, or stuff like that.

> It's becoming more common to not ever SSH into machines

This is a reality for me. At work we run a handful of distributed clusters, if anyone does an equivalent of sshing into a box and poking around (in our case, `kubectl exec`), the infrastructure team gets an alert, then follows up with whoever invoked the command. If they are doing debugging, we shift whatever resources they need into dev. If they are not debugging, they will probably get questioned by their boss. (fortunately, most of the time this chat results in, "oh wow I didn't know about the APM/Metrics/Graphs/Logs/etc setup we had, I'll check that next time)

Very cool project! Do you have any plans for a Zupiter API? I'd love to build a utility module or two, maybe even a filter.

Punch `China exit ban` into your favorite search engine.

On a bed made of money :(

Not all of us have a strong grasp of logic theory, although we probably would be much better off if we did. Mind dumbing it down for your audience?

Nope. That quote was lifted from Amazon.com meta tags.

If I were to guess at what companines might rival Amazon in having the biggest selection, my top 3 would be: eBay, Alibaba, Rakuten.

- Safeway and BMW don't tout theirselves as, "Earth's biggest selection of books, magazines, music, DVDs, videos, electronics, computers, software, apparel & accessories, shoes, ..." like Amazon does. They don't even claim to be the biggest selection of groceries/autos.

- Safeway and BMW aren't known as "The Everything Store"

- You can buy Toyotas at a BMW dealership. They will be used, but they're there.

Wicked cool! Now I'm digging around my apartment trying to find my GB Camera!

I have great news for you! https://tetris.wiki/SRS

I still end up using a sophisticated note app (AnyList) for remembering spinach. Real-enough-time syncing with my non-techie significant other's phone is pretty great, the latency is low enough that we divide and conquer at the grocery store.

When I take meeting notes, I end up using OneNote or Google Docs:

- I have a tree of `Who - What` (and the counter-bikeshedding).

- Images of block diagrams sneak in, especially if it's a planning or design meeting.

- Full text search is handy, one-note especially spoiled me by doing OCR

- I like GDocs in particular for the real-enough-time collaboration. It can help quieter people not get steamrolled in conversation, especially if you have a boisterous note-taker to speak up for them :)

> Secure Boot and the ME make me worried for the future of x86, even.

funny you mention that: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11422531

Even if they did, just going off of experience with other software projects, my gut says the docs are obsolete before you're* even able to download them.
