if you really love CS - there's a future in it. If AI becomes the new substrate for civilization, we'll always need people who fundamentally understand how these systems works to some degree.

I've been building a little io style game since Christmas, it's been fun!

My kid played it, and didn't stop for 45 minutes so I think that's a win :-)

Quick context on the bots.

I tried standard LLM-based approaches first, but iteration was slow and the bots never felt consistent or aware of real-time game state.

OpenClaw sped up the feedback loop a lot and handled game context much better by operating over structured actions instead of free-form text. The result is bots that actually play the game using the same mechanics as humans.

They’re still imperfect, but good enough to make the game feel alive. Happy to answer questions.

It's no secret! I used Tyler Hobbs' method which has a great write up here:

Then I tweaked it until it look good for use in my app.

LOL trying to watch the keynote but keep getting asked to login to Facebook and then since I don't have an account, I get the boot. I think that about sums it up.
