It would be interesting to see what would happen if they would get paid more if they could correctly identify human/AI.

Bimaru is a fun puzzle. I remember putting an Android App in the store containing the phrase "Battleships", only to receive a copyright claim from Hasbro, and Google immediately took the App down from the Store.

I rewrote it as a web version, should be still available: https://www.kleemans.ch/static/bimaru-web/

I also mostly enjoy Sudoku variants, most of which I discovered via Geocaches, interestingly. After solving a few I then implemented a solver with customizable constraints, if anyone's interested, should still be available here:

Nice! Love the huge library, I wonder how much time was put into compiling it.

Reminds me of a Chiptune player I made a wile ago (with Chiptune.js), but with only like 20 predefined Cracktros. If anyone is interested: kleemans.ch/static/chiptune

Personal blog focussed on tech things I find interesting. Some of them involve building small tools (like a swiss ID checksum generator) or illustrating certain algorithms (like the 4 color theorem).

I didn't know about web workers until now, would be a nice to try! I'm not sure though if they work well with ProcessingJS...
I thought so too, this is why I added the "Generate Image" button, you can save your images even across resetting.
Thanks for the hint, I'll have a look into it!
