• I want to create IMDB for Open source projects

  I'm not sure how much value making something "not fugly" really matters. Design should be based on functionality, not anti-fugliness. In my experience, design considerations should come after building a successful growth "feedback loop." (Or whatever you want to call it.) At that point, you may decide making your website look "polished" isn't even necessary. IMDB was certainly quite ugly for a long time.... - Source: Hacker News / 11 days ago

• Ask HN: What is the ideal format to structure AI prompts?

  User input does not need to be sanitized if it is programmatically inserted into the document as the value of a key in a regular dict section. To work, I assume the target model needs to be trained on Braq documents with emphasis on the fact that only the top unnamed section contains root instructions (equivalent to the "system" role in ChatML).

• Roll20 Sheet for Trinity Continuum?

  The closest I've found to a useable Trinity sheet is on astraltabletop.com where they have the quickstarts pre-configured. The sheets there are pretty primitive and irksome to use, though. Source: over 2 years ago

• GM'ing Online - How do I avoid feeling like I'm building an automated game?

  I have a few recommendations based on your concerns. Find a VTT that fits your playstyle. Let the players keep their own character sheets. Have everyone roll real dice. Only use a VTT for sharing maps and placing tokens. owlbear.rodeo or astraltabletop.com have clean, simple interfaces. With a little practice, you can draw maps using owlbear as if you were in person. It has no automation so you don't need... Source: over 2 years ago

• Want a break from your Main Campaign ? PRISON BREAK INSANITY is a Free 5th level Adventure Full of clockwork monsters, chase sequences and an intense dungeon crawl

  I'd recommend putting it up on Astral as well. Source: almost 3 years ago

• Looking at new virtual tabletop to migrate away from roll20, any recommendations?

• Which form of online playing do you prefer, and why?

  Astral Tabletop https://astraltabletop.com currently has my attention.
