  These problems were partially addressed years ago: - https://medium.com/@model_train/text-adventure-game-design-in-2020-608528ac8bda. - Source: Hacker News / 3 days ago

• A Rant about Front-end Development

  It was the "view as a (pure) function of your model" approach that was architecturally new in react. This article explains it using a bit react jargon (action, store, dispatcher) which is kind of unnecessary - but that's what I got from a quick google:... - Source: Hacker News / 4 days ago

• Show HN: Modular Pi Cam

  Here is a write up on topics covered by these camera iterations https://medium.com/@jdc-cunningham/making-a-user-interface-for-a-diy-camera-9c1bde515836 A lot of pictures and full menu map. - Source: Hacker News / 5 days ago

• Getting 50% (SoTA) on Arc-AGI with GPT-4o

  You moved your own goal posts. You said “poor quality”, and referred to any game imaginable, not to only valid moves. We absolutely can ask GPT to play a game it doesn’t know, and fail to get any valid moves. I was trying to give your argument the benefit of the doubt, but I can’t do that when your argument is moving and inconsistent. The papers you refer to do not say I’m wrong. In context learning doesn’t stick,... - Source: Hacker News / 7 days ago

• Amber – the programming language compiled to Bash

  I was really confused because there's also a Amber Language that compiles to JS: https://amber-lang.net/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Amber – the programming language compiled to Bash

  I was confused by Amber Smalltalk's pivot. Turns out it is just a newer language deciding to use the same name as an existing one. The domain is almost exactly the same as well. https://amber-lang.net/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Pharo 11

  I wonder if anyone has experience with this and Amber (https://amber-lang.net/) and can compare the two? The languages at least appear to be very similar, but the latter uses a web browser rather than a fully custom UI like Pharo has. I assume you can't just open a Pharo program in Amber (or the other way around)? - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Ask HN: Uncommon Web Languages?

  Tons of them, but I am most interested in the following for various reasons: PureScript[1] — been around a long time. Looks a lot like Haskell to me. Derw[2] — Elm-like, interesting integration with Typescript Amber[3] — smalltalk for js Rescript[4] — its been awhile since I last looked at this project (during a catastrophic rebrand) so I'm not sure where this project is at, but it did seem very promising to me at... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
