The parachute will never deploy if you're higher than a previous low. So if you scroll down, a bit up, and then down again it will not have a parachute, until reaching the point where it was at the bottom last and then suddenly it gets a parachute mid fall.

If it's falling without a parachute, it will get glued to the corner the moment you start scrolling up. If it's falling with a parachute, scrolling up will break it and it will continue past the screen.

I don't want to sound overly critical - it's cool that you dished this up so quick - just commenting on your comment. The fact that the AI made so many bugs in such a short script is kinda disproving it "working", doesn't mean we like hating AI.

You are 100% correct, but decided not to try to fix it manually, as it's a cool demo "I did this in 15 minutes in ai chat".

Truth be told, it has less UI issues than my last outsourced app I deployed. And it had dedicated UI team and a few million budget.

The Hamster v0.0.1 is working. He's just not great at his job.
