yeah, I am not really convinced of any real practical use myself tbh. I just wanted to try it out!

Really enjoy this method. Please add Irish if you can! TG4 could be used as possible source material: https://www.youtube.com/@TG4TV/videos

yeah, it usually functions like a simplified wikipedia. It is more useful for simpler subjects in its current form, but ultimately its just a bit of fun

On a slightly related note, I have created a tool for generating web pages based on any subject using different "themes". You can create one here with a "Mario-Bro's" theme for example: https://thedeadweb.eu/?q=honey&style=mario-bros

Some quick examples of some different themes: Subject: Large Hadron Collider:

Minimalism: https://thedeadweb.eu/?q=large%20hadron%20collider&style=pur...

Mario-bros: https://thedeadweb.eu/?q=large%20hadron%20collider&style=mar...

Vim: https://thedeadweb.eu/?q=the%20large%20hadron%20collider&sty...

Andy Warhol: https://thedeadweb.eu/?q=the%20large%20hadron%20collider&sty...

Any stories that have been written by AI are marked as such (they are categorized as user submission stories where the author is credited as the AI model). Interestingly the lowest ranked story on the site is one of those, although that was created with an older model. I had never thought of the site as being an "AI product" personally. I just wanted an excuse to play around with web sockets initially, but if I can improve the AI player maybe it will eventually go more in that direction.

that's pretty funny. Yeah, its far from perfect in terms of implementation at the moment. I was more curious to see if it was capable of understanding the game more than anything for the moment. Previous attempts with other models had proved to be disappointing. I will tweak the prompts to resolve that issue soon enough though. Like you say, it should be bread and butter for this.

I have had this lateral thinking game online for a while. The jist of the game is that one player asks a "host" a series of questions in order to reach a full understanding of what happened in a story, based on an initial premise.

I have tried in the past at adding AI players but could never get reliable answers. However, as AI has improved, I decided to give it another go. At the moment it is connected to deepseek v3 with some basic prompts, and it looks to handle the task pretty well. Not yet perfect but it definitely does form an impressive understanding of the stories, and the game itself.

I've tried using older models to create a cpu player on this lateral thinking game (https://detective-stories.com) and they were surprisingly bad at giving answers. I am curious to see how well the more recent models will do.

Quick guide to getting started:

Install with vundle:

Plugin 'whatever555/vanity'

To cycle through available color schemes call :VanityNextCol. When you come across a colour scheme you LIKE call :VanitySaveFavColorForFileType to add it as a favourite. When you come across a colour scheme you LOVE call :VanitySetDefaultColorForFiletype to add it as the default colour scheme for that filetype.

Just a simple little plugin I needed for managing the huge amount of color schemes available for vim. Allows for cycling through available color schemes, setting defaults etc.. Still a WIP but it has been solid enough for me on Linux using vim 8

probably not quite open source ready yet but you can keep an eye on it here: https://github.com/whatever555/geogee

Thanks. That is something that will be added soon. The push notifications already work off a similar idea

1. fixed 2. cheers. still doing some work on the flags sprite 3. I will consider adding a 'fast mode' in the future

ah, thanks. Not sure how i didn't notice that one. There are a few rendering issues with some of the svgs because I am rendering them as a svg sprite. Will add that to the list of fixes.

Thanks. Totally agree. I've been considering on how best to handle that in a way that helps the user learn. The game is still very much a WIP and I hope to have an update to the that feature quite soon

Nice one. I do take a bit of a risk by lazy loading some SVG sprites. Guessing that's the cause here

On the to-do list. Thanks!

Thought I could get away with breaking the back button because it's a game but I agree it is a bit annoying. Regarding the URLs. The reason for them holding so much info is that I wanted a structure that would allow them to work even when offline

Yeah, I think you are right about that. I'll try work something in at lunch tomorrow. Cheers

Just a simple game I made to keep myself occupied on flights and on the metro. Still very much a WIP.

i think the basic criteria is to have a twitter account and engage on the site for three days. might be worth giving it another shot or asking someone to post it for you

Seems like it is getting harder and harder to promote original content on the web without being considered spam. I think product-hunt might be a useful tool in promoting something like this but I do not know if it is the right place either...

I really liked it!

this reads like it was auto-translated...

Can be quite useful if you are using an amazon site that isn't based in your own country (e.g: Canadians using amazon.com). You may need to set your default address to your own country to get correct results.
