    I feel like we'd be better off if we just stopped at chatbots...why are we so eager to make the internet even more botted

    > I'm not sure why anybody would generate UUIDs in browsers though, it seems to defeat the purpose. How about for offline-first apps?

    Nice game. My results for the day: The hedge fund one really got me. The sounds fit nicely but a way to turn them off quickly from the menu could be nice. I couldn't find an option…

    I mean isn't that what show HN is for? Plus wasn't just hype, I was generally interested in getting more info on the SEO side of this project. I've had a lot of nice people try out…

    Nice and simple. Might just be me but a way to move groups of tiles on the board could be helpful, I accidentally started building too low down and had to move everything at one po…

    Interesting idea. Since it costs (at the moment) less than a dollar to post a message, does that still work well with Stripe? I'm always a bit worried about making super low priced…

    Really cool. Makes me excited to see other uses for smart glasses in the future.

    That's really neat. I think it would be a lot more popular if there were more locations we could draw on, but I get why it takes time to add new ones. Makes me wonder if something …

    Wow really nicely built site and great story behind it. I'd imagine you didn't just publish it in 2017 and magically start gaining traffic. Any good marketing tips learned along th…

    This is a cool idea, I think I'll do the same thing for my own project once it's released. Great way to show all the small improvements our brains find when we spend enough time st…

    I first read this blog post about a year ago I think. It was a bit after I started developing my own personal productivity app. It got me really excited because my philosophy is ex…

    Good game! Nice little touches on the website too like the tray at the bottom and the header click easter egg.

    Nice idea, Expo looks neat too. You designed the website and apps with it?

    This is funny because a while back I was looking at all of my Mario games on the Switch and noticed that, of them all, only 1 title had a different color scheme for the word Mario.…

    Quick fun. Not sure if this was a bug though: I got to the O'Neill Cylinder stage and then stopped playing for a bit (closed the tab). Came back today and played some more, and whe…

    This is awesome. Super fun, love the look. One thing: I wish there was a way to quickly reset to the top of a chairlift (map maybe?) or set a session and easily teleport back to it…

    Show HN: I made a one-word daily word search game called Haystack

    I’ve seen a lot of photos of these types of word searches online, where you have to find a single word hidden amongst a mashup of its own letters. But, there didn’t seem to be anyw…

    Hey, thanks for reporting. I could fix this by giving Mathic its own manifest.json file, but I'm a bit hesitant. I'm hoping to build Worchle into a home for a variety of search-sty…

    Thanks for checking out the update and getting back to me. That's very odd — the only way the Magic Number should get into the 20s (on addition mode at least) is if you have longer…
