<p>While the doc generator is a useful example app, the really interesting part is how you used Cursor to start a PocketFlow design doc for you, then you fine-tuned the details of the design doc to describe the PocketFlow execution graph and utilities you wanted the design of the doc-generator to follow…and then you used used Cursor to generate all the code for the doc-generator application.<p>This really shows off that the simple node graph, shared storage and utilities patterns you have defined in your PocketFlow framework are useful for helping the AI translate your documented design into (mostly) working code.<p>Impressive project!<p>See design doc <a href="https://github.com/The-Pocket/Tutorial-Codebase-Knowledge/blob/main/docs/design.md">https://github.com/The-Pocket/Tutorial-Codebase-Knowledge/bl...</a><p>And video <a href="https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=AFY67zOpbSo" rel="nofollow">https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=AFY67zOpbSo</a></p>

<p>Some raw feedback: It’s impossible to read on my iPhone.  All content ends up in the far left quarter-column  of my screen. I can’t zoom to see the content in that column (a default behavior for most sites).  Switching to “reader” mode (to remove all the stying tricks) seems to show content that is not related to the article I was trying to read.  I’ve rarely seen a site wreck an iPhone safari browser that badly :) -  I’m interested in the topic though, so will try to remember to look when at a full-size browser.</p>

<p>Are there any examples of "Hello World!" with simulated basic brain cells? I'm sure this is an entirely naive question given the complexity of a brain, but I'm imagining a rudimentary program to help understand brain-style processing with some kind of brain cell struct unit that represents real-ish input/output mechanisms that can be connected to other brain cell struct units...leading to some minimal brain-style processing outcomes.</p>

<p>What an ambitious vision! This is a really neat concept and a great breakdown of the interesting challenges with making a great text-based experience for game users.<p>My kid was interested in starting with game programming a few years ago and I tried to push him down the path of a text adventure to start simple... and I recall not being happy with the text game engines I stumbled upon.<p>Here are some links I tracked down to play with it more:<p>* Main website: <a href="https://egamebook.com/" rel="nofollow">https://egamebook.com/</a><p>* Knights of San Francisco game: <a href="https://egamebook.com/knights/" rel="nofollow">https://egamebook.com/knights/</a><p>* Game engine source: <a href="https://github.com/filiph/egamebook" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/filiph/egamebook</a><p>* Quickstart to run locally: <a href="https://github.com/filiph/egamebook/tree/master/edgehead#development" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/filiph/egamebook/tree/master/edgehead#dev...</a><p>* A web-based prototype <a href="https://egamebook.com/vermin/v/latest/" rel="nofollow">https://egamebook.com/vermin/v/latest/</a><p>Edit/Update:  Contrasting the game on my phone with the how it plays in the terminal, while looking at the source files is blowing my mind :).  The phone game rendering is really slick/polished -- I can see this was a labor of love. Nicely done.<p>Here's the starting point of the game's text source if anyone else is interested...  <a href="https://github.com/filiph/egamebook/blob/master/edgehead/assets/text/Knights/locations/099_start/000_start.egb.txt" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/filiph/egamebook/blob/master/edgehead/ass...</a></p>

<p>The flexible WYSIWYG editing is top-notch!  I’m sure you’ll get a thousand feedback ideas, but... if a next goal was to get folks to make it an expression/view of themselves, it would be good to help them connect content that they are already making back into their page.  Being able to drop in a API feed of their tweets, blog posts or videos — and then applying some of your kitschy formatting to it — might bring back even more of that MySpace feel...</p>

<p>I was confused by this too. Clicking and dragging with the mouse (or at least touchpad) works for navigation.  The HTML canvas element key events aren't working (maybe they worked . in older browsers).  There is an open PR that hooks window events instead (I made similar edits locally that make it work).  <a href="https://github.com/s-macke/VoxelSpace/pull/13" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/s-macke/VoxelSpace/pull/13</a>.  The distance rendering works once you move and force a redraw.</p>

<p>[I'm not a physicist] I like your analogy for color entanglement. However, it doesn't show the "weirdness" of superposition (the balls don't have a concrete value until one of the boxes are opened, at which point, this triggers the determination of the open box's color value), nor the "spookiness" of action-at-a-distance (opening one box instantly influences the state of the ball in the other box -- which now must be the opposite color when its box is opened).<p>Intuitively, someone might think: well, the ball colors were "decided" while the two balls were next to each other (ballA will be orange, ballB will be purple), and the information about the color is attached to the balls, so the balls know what color to be when they are separated and later opened (they have "hidden variables" indicating the assigned color)....however, the reality (provable statistically by Bell's Theorem) is that the balls do not carry this color information, and instead the act of opening the box, randomly sets the color of BallA and instantly affects the color that BallB will have.<p>So if both people synchronize the time to open the box (that has some time relativity problems), so that BoxA is opened a fraction of a second before BoxB, then BoxA's color will influence BoxB's color (seen a fraction of a second later), but that will have happened faster than the speed of light would allow if BoxA was sharing its color information with BoxB.</p>
