Author here. I built Numble as a daily number-guessing puzzle in the Wordle mould, and along the way noticed that its feedback mechanic (coarse distance buckets with no direction) is unusually hostile to LLMs trying to play it cold. The article explains why: the answer never appears in the DOM, the feedback forces interval arithmetic across five independent candidate sets, and a recently added "joker" tile hides one cell's feedback entirely — which turns out to be the single most adversarial-to-LLMs feature in the game, and I shipped it as a visual gag. Happy to be told I'm wrong about the "first" framing; that's the part I'm least sure of.
Wordle, but for numbers. Guess the 5-digit code in 6 tries. Each guess reveals how close you are - but not which direction. New puzzle daily. Can you crack today's Numble?
#Do cards are similar to Google Now cards. The idea is to enable any small business to expose a digital interface. i.e. a small collection of single-function cards which can then be dispersed, surfaced and executed anywhere.
I definitely see them used in notifications. Another use case that really excites me is Google's eddystone standard.
