Really nice, loved playing with it!
One small improvement: could you disable the "double tap to zoom" on mobile browsers? This happens often when you press multiple squares closeby. Should be one line of css:
touch-action: manipulation

This was a lot of fun to do! Thank you. The UX is also very nice, except that it is possible to make typo's in your answer haha
Re:Ask HN: In 2024 what's the best way to manage contacts?

A bit off topic but I absolutely HATE that the Contacts app in ios feels like a one-day hobby project. How is it still so america-centric? Why can't I sort my contacts in Dutch sorting order? Why can't I add other important dates (like their day of death) that also shows up in my calendar?

No way pip actually is a really inefficient SAT solver!

The suggestion from that comment to use "Window -> Move & Resize -> Left" doesn't work for me. Any ideas?

Yes, System Settings > Keyboard > Keyboard shortcuts > App Shortcuts > All Applications [0]. Pretty cumbersome, and I only get it to remap to "Top Left" and friends, but not just "Left" and "Right". Very frustrating.

Yes, and .py is "plain" text too. The extension however helps with signaling the intend of the file. Also, there is something to say for the argument "there is no such thing as plain text" [0]

You mention that this problem has overlap with training neural nets. Could you link some further reading for this? :)

Did you change the _Z_CMD? If so, you have to include 2>&1. The default is
alias ${_Z_CMD:-z}='_z 2>&1'

Very interesting talk and topic. It's funny he describes it as a programming language. To me it feels like "a text editing language". Like Vim but spoken.
I think it will be excellent for people that can't use a keyboard to program. Really cool to see more of this accessibility in programming.
