Great, thanks! I'll check it out. I've opened up discussions on the the project page. Definitely not an MS fan myself, but not sure if others like gitlab would be a suitable replacement.

Looks cool! I'd like to take a look. I've been working on profile management recently so that you can create custom word lists. You can specify a list of solution candidates as well as a list of strategic picks, and then generate decision trees based on those lists. A neat trick I've found is that since NYT wordle has not repeated any solutions, you can remove all historical solutions from the candidate list. There are only ~700 words remaining, so almost all my recent attempts solve it on the third try. Connect with me on github if you'd like to collaborate or would like to share ideas.

I'm guessing using a Wordle solver would be cheating?

I would rather chew on broken glass than give Elon Musk any money.

He's just a whiny baby pretty much 100% of the time. He's sad because nobody wants to pay him to advertise next to hate speech on twitter.

Submission + - Slashdot Alum Samzenpus's Fractured Veil Hits Kickstarter
CmdrTaco writes: Long time Slashdot readers remember Samzenpus,who posted over 17,000 stories here, sadly crushing my record in the process! What you might NOT know is that he was frequently the Dungeon Master for D&D campaigns played by the original Slashdot crew, and for the last few years he has been applying these skills with fellow Slashdot editorial alum Chris DiBona to a Survival game called Fractured Veil. It's set in a post apocalyptic Hawaii with a huge world based on real map data to explore, as well as careful balance between PVP & PVE. I figured a lot of our old friends would love to help them meet their kickstarter goal and then help us build bases and murder monsters! The game is turning into something pretty great and I'm excited to see it in the wild!

I really like referring to him as President-Reject Trump, owing to his norm shattering loss and becoming an increasingly rare one-term president.

I haven't released software under the GPL since RMS's insane rant at the LinuxWorld GNOME press conference about 20 years ago. Sorry, Bruce, I'm not on your side this time.

I don’t know if she did, and don’t care. She was great and we were sad to see her go.
I left because the company was bought, and the new owners laid off some of its more expensive long-tenured employees, since they were putting the site effectively into maintenance mode, trying to sell if off. They just wanted to keep ThinkGeek and didn’t care to improve the other properties. I was forced out, but I was there a long time, and it was good for me to move on when I did.
