I think there's a severe problem with this implementation. By using wrapping, I can't write "boobs" and have everyone else read my graffiti without them having having the same zoom wrapping point.
No, no, it's a feature. Your message has been cleverly hidden behind a modern day scytale cipher. Intended recipients must know the correct screen width.

I made https://shru.gg/r for this reason
I added a Mac keyboard shortcut, so anywhere I type "shrg" it expands to ‾\_(ツ)_/‾ If I need an escaped version, that's "shrgg": ‾\\\_(ツ)\_/‾
Did this ever turn against you when coding?
`std::shared_ptr shrg = ...` or similar?

Is it ok if I try to write a script to uncheck all the boxes? I don’t want to spam your server and ruin it for everyone if there’s no rate limiting. (I wince mentioning this publicly; still have flashback trauma from when some HNer wrote a script to download as much data as possible from our Firebase and got a $1k bill overnight.)
Hi! Sorry it took me a bit to get to this, I've been hacking to keep the server up for the last several hours. Lots of people are botting, I don't think there's anything wrong if you bot too. There's a tiny bit of client-side rate limiting and originally i had server side rate limiting too, but I got rid of that a while ago (I was cutting anything I could to speed things up).
Haha. Cutting rate limiting to speed things up

You announced it on the FediVerse, where it has already been boosted almost 700 times as I write this 4 hours later, and it spread to Reddit within 2 hours of that, as you know because you replied to the Reddit post. There is definitely going to be an initial spike of activity, given those. (-:
I'm glad about that. Should keep Reddit type people occupied for days.

#268The article above this on HN homepage was of Claude Sonnet 3.5. So, I used Claude Sonnet 3.5 and pasted an unchecking script. Presently I am at (-150)-ish checks.
function clickTickedCheckboxes() { // Find all checked checkboxes const checkedBoxes = document.querySelectorAll('input[type="checkbox"]:checked');
// Iterate through each checked checkbox
checkedBoxes.forEach((checkbox, index) => {
// Use setTimeout to add a delay between clicks
setTimeout(() => {
// Click the checkbox
checkbox.click();
// If this is the last checkbox, call the function again after 2 seconds
if (index === checkedBoxes.length - 1) {
setTimeout(clickTickedCheckboxes, 2000);
}
}, index * 2000); // 2000ms (2 seconds) delay between each click
});// Start the process clickTickedCheckboxes();
