How many moves left to solve cube ?

What it does

I made a "How many moves left to solve?" app - give it a try. Even with various optimizations to the search algorithm, for the 3x3x3 cube (with a God's number of 20), real-time processing currently tops out at around 10~11 moves. Beyond that, the app switches to Kociemba's algorithm to provide hints without guaranteeing optimality. On the other hand, the 2x2x2 cube, with a God's number of 11, runs smoothly and is fun to play using the current search approach.

  • A puzzle I couldn't solve for a year – cubers cracked it in an hourAug 2026 · skimmiq.com · ▲18

    Dev here. I created a puzzle that looks like Rubik's cube but works differently. Instead of turning faces, closed bands of 12 stickers slide around the cube. Every scramble is solvable. I built on-device AI solvers that solve it in about 60 moves (sometimes substantially less than that) I'm not even a cuber so since I created it I've been thinking that no human can solve it. Until this Tuesday when I showed it to r/Cubers. It took them about an hour to find a solution. The first human solve was about 240 moves using mostly (how they call it) 4-move commutators:…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
