Love this, mechanics and music are great!

One suggestion would be to not care what key is pressed, maybe just have any key change direction?

stephenhandley··on Apple Vision Pro: Apple’s first spatial computer
visionOS UI unsurprisingly still feels very tethered to a stationary AR model (i.e. mostly on couch / at table use cases). Of course hard to tell without trying it, but even if this had full day battery and wasn't a glowing please rob me sign, wearing this while navigating some outdoor spatial environment with the current OS seems like a great way to break an ankle. Maybe they have some gesture or accelerometer-based trigger to do the equivalent of Mission Control's "desktop" to minimize everything except for the camera pass-through so a person can safely walk around their house.

Seems like if it is eventually going to become outdoor-friendly OS, it would need to minimally be multi-mode for stationary vs. moving user, where when moving there's more minimal overlay (maybe like Anon [1] hopefully minus the dystopian hellscape).

3D camera + spatial audio is probably most interesting near term thing for me in this version, will be interesting to see how people use that to record and share immersive experiences.

This is awesome. Do you mind sharing the json data source you're using for the NBA data?
stephenhandley··on Orbit: an experimental platform for small tasks repeated over time
Hadn't heard of SuperMemo / spaced learning before and has been awesome reading about it tonight, especially relating to personal note-taking. That said, one thing about QCVC I'm not wild about (so far) is the amount of meta content / sales pitching it leads with. Like, I get it, you wanna convince people of the value of this approach, but I'd prefer a version that just did the thing (teach the basics of QC) instead of spending so much time talking about teaching you the thing. Its like if I was reading a textbook and it spent half of the time talking about why I should do / engage with the exercises... ideally the method / process should be self-justifying and not need to make a case for itself. I get that QCVC was geared towards proving the concept, so I guess just hoping if this starts getting used by other authors, they implement just the process rather than spend an inordinate amount of time talking about it.

stephenhandley··on Twitter is Pivoting
they're just gonna concentrate on content/media sharing via url, and that isn't necessarily big-company driven. people sharing links and talking about them etc.
stephenhandley··on Show HN: Soundslice – YouTube + synced guitar tabs + HTML5
great idea and approach.

might be worth adding way to have the community mark a tab as complete. the couple i checked other than the tutorial ones weren't finished.. made the experience frustrating. i know its early and coverage will only improve, but that might help smooth out that process.

stephenhandley··on Crowdfunded research into how amphetamines work
Really like the potential in crowdfunding of science as a way to get more people interested in science. Would be interesting to see rewards tailored for aspiring scientists. This research-topic is probably too controversial to directly associate with high school and younger students but letting them sponsor research projects in exchange for a lab tour / tutorial would be an interesting way to get young people more interested in research.
