Don't all phones look extremely similar today?

Maybe I'm old but no two phones today seem as different as e.g. Nokia 8800 was from Motorola Razr


Yes, I don't know why they bother showing the phone turned off anymore. They all look the same.

The materials might be different, and that's where a lot of companies go wrong. The Pixel 10 uses polished glass, which is too slippery. It slides off uneven surfaces and is harder to hold.


> all phones

Eh...

Both from the same company and I think about an equal distance between them as the Nokia 8800 and a similarly dated Motorola Razr.

Fixed now


looks like people somehow deleted everything, reset it to starting position


oh it's gone through a lot of iterations - I have seen Among Us characters, people clearing out the canvas down to 8 rectangles, entire thing going one color, had to delete a few obscenities, etc


yeah - merging has been tricky to nail down, definitely the thing that's gone through the most iterations so far


I would love to know more about it! you should make a blog post


it's been a learning experience for sure, but my blog is really not a good place for a technical story like this. i'll think about where i might be able to post it


people wrote scripts to color everything one color, had to implement some limits, but I think should be good now


Sadly that is unequivocally a very fun thing to do, and honestly I was considering trying it before I came and checked the HN thread haha


Maybe Anubis-style proof of work?


oooh good idea thanks


implemented, thanks for the idea, love it


sorry about that and the merges! I'm stopping now :)

that was a fun way to spend the past hours


Was it you that was trying to get the German flag on there? If so, wow great job! Got a few screenshots!

yes hahah did it twice, I think OP nuked it once

it was a simple rule, if y < 1/3, black, if y < 2/3, ...


I went on there with my young child, and there was a german flag on there, just not the 2000s german flag, more like 1940s german flag.

Really we need some common sense censorship on that site someone made for fun.

neural_thing was really good about resetting if anything went awry. It's just 1 person's toy project they wanted to share. Set your expectations of investment at that level. Detecting swasticas + every other symbol that might taint the mind of your young child is a rather hard task, and yet you expect it to be done for free for you.

I can give them a break for missing one case, and point the blame for that solely at the internet in general for trying to ruin a purely fun thing with hate.


This is not just an issue of my child, for example, if a German user were to open that site in public, they would be found guilty of hate speech, amongst dozens of localities : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bans_on_Nazi_symbols. Also in California, where speech is free but is not free of consequences.

I don't make the rules here, I just don't want this guy to go to jail for his fun project.


No worries lol. Learning experience for me :)


I have a script that generates images every hour, will adapt it to let people save states!


I think I'm having stability issues with lots of users, will try to figure it out, sorry


OMG I thought I was fighting with someone really fast.


I thought so too! Maybe it was true


It looks like you need to batch your updates and not tie them directly to UI actions, imo!

Cool project!


No need to apologize, just wanted to let you know there is an issue.
