I came to the comments section to shoot down the article, and I see you fine people have already done an excellent job. I just upvoted y'all.

It's either generousness or incompetence.

Thanks. Believable - when my kid is glued to a tablet with another kid and they're talking about what they're seeing or doing, it makes me feel much better than when she's doind the same by herself...

Is... that a bad thing or a good thing? Are you saying the snowman should move slower? Are you using small or large screen, touch or keyboard?

Well, I don't have "walls" - my maze is sort of 2.5 dimensions - so that complicates things somewhat. I wonder whether there's an algorithm to "lift" a 2d maze with walls into my 2.5d maze, and I think if it&#

The WFC/model synthesis article is very interesting, thanks. Yes the color floods are stunning, but these are exactly the algorithms which do not produce very interesting mazes. In particular, I don't think the "no loops&quot

Thanks! I haven't really shared it with many people yet - if you have any feedback I'd be happy to hear.

I'm looking for such an algorithm, with intermediate goals: you start at the bottom, go up, and as you reach the goal, more maze appears. I left out some unimportant details :)

> The book isn’t super deep, but it has a fun set of projects and further ideas/reading as well. Does it just regurgitate the well known maze generating algorithms? These generally do not lead to mazes interesting for humans...

by tasuki 7mo ago
Yes, this page is a good overview of the sorry state of maze generation. The maze-creating algorithms might be interesting for computer scientists, but they're terrible at creating mazes interesting for humans! First, I'm not su

They're not banning "AI programming": just specifically large language models.

Could easily be, yes. And they'd be right not to invest in OP's skills. (To explicitly state the obvious: I'm not saying OP's a bad person for doing this, just saying the employers were right not to invest in them...)

Shouldn't the first chart have a logarithmic scale on the vertical? I don't trust anything using linear scales where they're a bad fit...
