Is this website intended to break HN on Android? I've never had a website lock up the HN app like this. I couldn't back out, and I was stuck in a loop when the app restarted on the same page.

#44I would suggest adding the /r/ProgrammerHumor version too: https://www.reddit.com/r/ProgrammerHumor/comments/1p204nx/ac... The AI crank always cracks me up.
I like that the hand crank is going counter-clockwise

#45I love that the initial state itself isn't stable. The world keeps moving around us. Can't choose staying still.
Interesting! It's stable on my machine. I wonder if this is due to floating-point differences.
On my machine, the initial state isn't simulated. It only begins simulation when I touch it. At which point, the weight causes the bottom blocks to intersect each other significantly.

There are a few HN readers out there, but none of them are official as far as I know.

Oh wow! :)
Thank you for the laughs. I needed that!

given the events of the last few days, one could add a Shahed drone too.

For me, bottom blocks stay still while those on the very top fall down.

#50It'd be really cool (and probably useful) if someone could figure out a way to generate diagrams like this for any software project.
You'd first need to figure out a way to generate a complete dependency tree. For each box, I interpret its height as a measure of its complexity and its width as a measure of the support it receives. The hardest part would probably be figuring out a way to quantitatively measure those values.
