Thank you!

Agreed, I read this and almost instinctively decided to close the page, agents can be used to build games for sure, but that "one shot" and "fun" in the same sentence is really misleading

They're from Brazil, Google doesn't sell pixels there

I know about that, but it's usually a good UX practice to ask users for confirmation when they try performing destructive actions.

An analogy would be pressing delete on a file in your OS of choice, you can see the deleted file in the trash bin, but before it's moved there you'll be prompted for confirmation anyways (or in more modern OSes a notification/toast shows to let you indo the action if performed by accident)

this is one of the coolest things I have ever seen on hacker news, wish you the best of luck!

Thanks for sharing, is that engine sound coming from the truck?

If it helps I used to use a gaming laptop for work that had a RTX 2060 mobile version, I was able to run some recent games like Elden Ring (including mods & online play), and some older but still demanding titles like Witcher 3. All of this without tinkering too much on a oob Ubuntu LTS install (I later switched to popOS because I don't like snaps that much).

For those interested in a easier way to set up databases, and maybe other containerized services, for testing I recommend using TestContainers[1], there's integrations for well known languages like Go, Java, Node.js and the set up is easier than what is described in the article (at least if you're already developing on a container-ready workspace)

I would recommend reading Josh Comeau's brilliant article[0] on this subject, I prefer his more intuitive approach for deciding when to choose `rem` or `px` for CSS values.

For example, from this Airbnb article:

> In the case of Airbnb, the team decided to prioritize the use of rem units specifically for font scaling, rather than scaling all elements proportionally.

This can lead to undesirable outcomes as sometimes spacing between elements can have a functional purpose, e.g. making it easier to vertically separate one paragraph from another. If you use `rem` solely for font-size and nothing else users with `32px` as their default font-size would not have the necessary amount of space to help discern one paragraph from another in this case.

PS It looks like they use Linaria, one can simplify the transition from `px` to `rem` by declaring this helper function and using inside their `css` rules:

```ts

export const px = (...spacing: number[]) => spacing.map(s => `${s * (1 / 16)}rem`).join(" ")

// Example usage

const styles = css`

p { // This inline padding is for aesthetic reasons, we don't want this to scale

  // with users preferred font-size

  padding-inline: 16px;

  // This serves a functional purpose, it will become `0.5rem 1rem` 

  // which should match `8px 16px` if users are using the default 16px font-size

  margin-block: ${px(8, 16)};

}`

```
