Working on a print-and-play football/soccer game that uses spare World Cup stickers as the player cards.

I've been balancing ~800 player cards and running several simulations to balance the cards. It's been an interesting mix of my hobbies such as football, game design, many spreadsheets and CSVs, and a bit of code.

I switched to that setup a few years ago. I keep a text file with all the links plus some metadata, like the date and some tags https://eapl.me/links/links.txt

I also have a few PHP scripts to help me view the links https://eapl.me/links/all_links.php?tag=dev

It’s not the easiest thing to manage, so I'm thinking of more scripts to update or delete old links from the web instead from SSH like I do now.

I enjoyed playing a few rounds of Probabilistic TTT, and 'Incomplete Information Tic-Tac-Toe' sounded interesting too.

After thinking about it last night, I made a quick version this morning, and I think it's fun to play as well: https://eapl.me/incomplete/

Nice question! Let's see...

CLI - TOTP/2FA tool with fuzzy search - A script on top of timetrap, to type a number and change your current activity (emulating a Timeflip) - A simple view of % of time spent for each activity - A few scripts on Python, PHP or Go to automate stuff at work

CLI/Web - http://gemugami.com/week/ Get the current ISO week

Web - A site to ask people of their preferred time for a meeting, trying to find one working for all (quite difficult :) - https://eapl.mx/price/ Compare price and sizes/weights of 2 products to know which one is 'more' convenient - https://eapl.mx/twtxt/ A public view of my twtxt microblogging, and a single-user admin view - http://gemugami.com/time/ Get your browser's timezone

Not tools, but quite interesting - http://gemugami.com/hexclock/ An hexadecimal clock - http://gemugami.com/clock/ A decimal clock ('hours' from 0 to 1000) - http://gemugami.com/kcolc/ Time goes in reverse from 24h to 0 - http://gemugami.com/solar/ Shifts the time to be 7am at sunrise, based on your location - http://gemugami.com/holmes/ A scoring app for a board game

And a bunch of game prototypes, mostly to learn new stuff and game design

Agreed! Here you are more a patron or sponsor who's disinterestedly giving spare money for something you think is good for the rest of the people.

Although the Angel investor expects a few shares of a company, I like the analogy of an 'angel sponsor'.

I found a summary on what motivated the change, I don't know how accurate that is, but sounds legit https://youtu.be/7SBJr3Zfgl8 - Why Apple removed the gun emoji

Something overwhelming of WebAuthn/U2F/FIDO2/Passkeys is that it has many different modes and settings [0] So, my understanding is that you need to find the settings to 'upgrade' the modes from 2FA to a Passwordless alternative. Not all devices are supported.

I like this explanation in Ruby [1] [2] of all the process between the server and the browser. It also has an example you can try on your browser to see if your devices/OS are supported. Look at the bottom the distinction between Passwordless and 2FA.

I'm making a proof of concept of WebAuthn the only login option, for a toy project in PHP [0] with this library [1] It has been an interesting exercise to understand the tricky parts of it.
