This was a pre-LLM YC startup AssemblyMade which was basically this

There's an awesome book Ian put out with laces on the cover and illustrations of all his lacing and knot suggestions. Potential future gift!

Really interesting. Feels like a fun platform to tinker with like "circuit bending" to make surprising behaviors happen across the entire OS

I wonder what the ideal demo of this that makes its approach visually legible would be

Taking this to extreme degree — could wire up a GitHub/`claude` workflow that automatically generates pull request implementations of top-rated features (e.g. with branch previews hooked up so you can just try it and approve)

Note there is a CLAUDE.md file in the repo, so this was likely built at least in part with Claude Code.

Deep cut but he also open sourced Facepunch.Steamworks which turned Steam SDK / C# integration from brutal to delightful

Curious, are the slow build times locally, your own CI or Unity Cloud Build? (If local/own builders may be some ways to dramatically lower the build times eg by managing the Library/ cache per-platform.)

Happy to help anyone with optimizing these approaches it's been a pain to figure out

It is really what you want out of a hacker-stuck-in-corporate story.

There was a tale maybe 10+ years ago about someone who automated their job with a script or Excel sheet or macro and didn't tell anyone about it. Having a hard time tracking it down again, anyone remember what that was?

Folks who are here and interested in parallelization for CI/CD may also be interested in Dagger.io — I had heard about it on HN over the years but not played w it. It's basically a more fine-grained Docker-like executor with better caching and utilities for spinning up services and running tests.

Curious if anyone else has experiences with it, honestly been surprised at how little I've heard about it

I'd be curious to check it out!

I've been wondering this last year about the use case of compressing highly repetitive logs in a streaming fashion, and whether fine-tuning a model or combination of LLM / datastore might make a sort of adaptive online compression perform well (e.g. allowing central versioned coordination of compression steps/layers as they evolve)

Awesome, will add them, thanks!

Love the concept of being able to find and read a bunch of these. Real quick put together a quick redirect URL that jumps to a random text-and-code-on-a-page thing https://textandcode.page (can add more if there's other recs!)

Akin to "signals" / "event emitters"?
