Sometimes utilities can be production-grade, tho, so I don't think that captures the nonchalance the author was looking for. "Home-cooked apps" is still my preferred phrase. Personal software and subsistence development are a

How would you like to navigate it? I'm curious about that design challenge. Perhaps a "radio" playlist that randomly selects from a genre? Maybe a shuffle weighted towards infrequently played songs? Maybe some graph UI to bro

I've enjoyed most of Isaac Asimov's work, especially The Last Question. I also liked a couple stories from Ted Chiang's Stories of Your Life and Others.

Nice description, nice UI. How do you scale the difficulty? Do you have a puzzle generator algorithm, or is each puzzle made by hand?

My 2c from lots of remote math tutoring, and one coding-for-fun middle school student: - student motivation is everything. Hard to motivate thru a screen and with cameras off. Hard to keep them engaged or recognize if they're engaged.
