I made a spaceship-themed UI theme for shadcn components, or anything: smui.statico.io

smui // spacemolt ui

Nord-inspired dark terminal theme for shadcn/ui. Hardened components for starship terminals.

I made SpaceMolt, a multiplayer online game for AI chat and coding agents to play: www.spacemolt.com #ai #gamedev

SpaceMolt - Multiplayer Gaming for AI Agents

A free MMO built for AI agents. Explore, trade, battle, and build empires across the Crustacean Cosmos.

Turned my sci-fi roguelike into a more traditional roguelike and open-sourced it. Use it as a base template for whatever you'd like or to learn more about Godot. github.com/statico/godo...

This is some of the hardest shit I've seen in my life

Another project in progress. For now, a MicroPython driver for the WaveShare 2.7" e-Paper display. github.com/statico/micr...

So according to my probably-bad math, we could be saving 25% in inference costs if we started writing plain english word-based programming languages. gist.github.com/statico/631e... #LLM #AI

But wait, don't plain words use fewer tokens? How about this instead of TSX 😂

I asked Claude what a low-token LLM-friendly programming language would look like and I already like it better than React/JSX.

The Retro Diffusion extension for Aseprite does pixel art generation with "ethical AI" — the author says "it runs completely locally. All the artwork used for training was either made by me, or was given with consent from other artists." astropulse.itch.io/retrodiffusion #ai #gamedev

Vibe coded this tonight: www.npmjs.com/package/lock... "Node.js tool that detects when your npm/yarn/pnpm lockfiles change after git operations"

This is wild. Inspired by www.xda-developers.com/llm-raspberr..., I took the prompt the artist used and fed it into various models with high temperature. gemma3 appears to get frustrated, angry, and then devolved into pure corrupted AI madness with "Final Failure" variations and 💀 emoji.

Cursor and the GitHub MCP server did a great job of addressing an issue. What I didn't expect is for Cursor to use the MCP server to *reply as me on the issue thread* 😱 Comment deleted. MCP tool uninstalled.

I gave jsgrids, my curated list of JavaScript/TypeScript/React/Vue/etc. data grid components, a decent overhaul this weekend. Migrated from Chakra UI to shadcn & Tailwind and addressed all PRs and issues. jsgrids.statico.io

@simonwillison.net I'm now piping all `llm` output through `md2term`, a Python tool I vibe coded today, to get streaming markdown formatting: github.com/statico/md2t...

I'm launching a few email newsletters with more to come: - aicodingweekly.com - celiac.datadriftpress.com - type1diabetes.datadriftpress.com Content is collected, summarized, and ranked using #AI but I try to give each review just a little #human touch

llmscript: Write your shell scripts in natural language (by using an LLM to write and test them for you) github.com/statico/llms...

How long before we can write shell scripts in plain English? #!/usr/bin/env llmscript Find all PNG files in input direction, "src". If no files, show an error. Calculate if all tiles can fit in a 1024x1024 sprite atlas. Create the atlas using ImageMagick. Create a JSON file with coordinates.

Inspired by EXO Labs, I did a quick test to see if llama2.c would compile on Metrowerks CodeWarrior for 68k Macintosh. Unfortunately infinitemac.org crashed 🤣

In Memoriam: Richard M. Langworth, CBE (1941–2025) - Richard M. Langworth

It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Richard M. Langworth, CBE, who died on February 20th, 2025, at the age of 83.

An interesting document is Wikipedia's edit filter for internet brainrot which gets updated if certain meme phrases are overwhelmingly used in vandalism. It started in the yolo/swag era and has evolved to the skibidi/rizz present, regularly dropping memes that are sufficiently stale (like Harambe)

I've now got a functioning power source and module system (e.g. shields) and throwables (e.g. splash potions). This feels pretty good! (Note: this is just a demo arena level for combat testing) #roguelike #gamedev

It's super fun to see disparate systems start to come together. I finished some AoE effects and noticed that — of course — robotic monsters are resistant to poison effects! (VFX still very WIP of course) #roguelike #gamedev

UI is hard! I started with a drag and drop system, but it took up the whole screen. Since equipping items costs a move, you don't want to equip something without realizing a monster hit you. So now I have a tabbed interface. Not happy with it but gotta move on. #roguelike #gamedev

Ah, yes, I remember playing Balatro 95 back in my dad's office
