Transform your Git repository into an interactive multiplayer trivia game for team building and fun! Git Game Show transforms your project's Git commit history into a live, multiplayer trivia game. One user hosts a session, other players join remotely, and the system rotates through rounds of different question-based "mini-games," awarding points and declaring a final winner. ██████╗ ██╗████████╗ ██████╗ █████╗ ███╗ ███╗███████╗ ██╔════╝ ██║╚══██╔══╝ ██╔════╝ ██╔══██╗████╗ ████║██╔════╝ ██║ ███╗██║ ██║ ██║ ███╗███████║██╔████╔██║█████╗ ██║ ██║██║ ██║ ██║ ██║██╔══██║██║╚██╔╝██║██╔══╝ ╚██████╔╝██║ ██║ ╚██████╔╝██║ ██║██║ ╚═╝ ██║███████╗ ╚═════╝ ╚═╝ ╚═╝ ╚═════╝ ╚═╝ ╚═╝╚═╝ ╚═╝╚══════╝ █████╗…from justinpaulson.github.io

  Hey HN, I built Git Quest, it reads your public GitHub history and turns it into an idle RPG character. How it works: - Your most-used language determines your class (TypeScript → Paladin, Python → Sage, etc.) - Commits generate Power and XP - Your character auto-battles dungeons while you code – no active play needed - Enemies drop loot across 5 rarity tiers - Live leaderboard ranks developers It only reads public GitHub data. I built it because I wanted something that rewards coding consistency without being another "streak" tracker. The idle mechanic means prolific coders naturally…

  I built a hardware processor that runs Python▲983

  Hi everyone, I built PyXL — a hardware processor that executes a custom assembly generated from Python programs, without using a traditional interpreter or virtual machine. It compiles Python -> CPython Bytecode -> Instruction set designed for direct hardware execution. I’m sharing an early benchmark: a GPIO test where PyXL achieves a 480ns round-trip toggle — compared to 14-25 micro seconds on a MicroPython Pyboard - even though PyXL runs at a lower clock (100MHz vs. 168MHz). The design is stack-based, fully pipelined, and preserves Python's dynamic typing without static type restrictions.…
