Care to write it up somewhere? Would be a fascinating read!

Unfortunately doing something like that will simply make anticheats respond as they have in the past and make it increasingly difficult to do so.

I did contemplate playing this cat and mouse game and making anticheats accept that it's easier to just support linux instead of fighting it.

From TTT:

> Magnus Carlsen, co-founder of Take Take Take, will not be actively promoting the platform at launch. With Take Take Take now offering a full play and learning experience, it enters territory that conflicts with his ambassador agreement with Chess.com. He remains a co-founder and the company's largest shareholder, and the team expects his involvement to resume once those contractual constraints change. For now, the product will have to speak for itself.

> you aren't allowed to expose the access to end users, it has to be for internal usage only,

I think what you meant is "you aren't allowed to expose the access to the API to end users", which is a fair condition IMHO.

You're still allowed to expose the functionality (ie. build a SaaS or AI assistant powered by OpenRouter API), just don't build a proxy.

To be clear, I like Openrouter and recommend it to many people (I don't aim to "shit on it").

It does talk about a competing service, if I build a service that propose all the image gen models of Openrouter, and charge the user for it per token, am I allowed?

Yup!

Turns out if you want to have a useful clock it needs to use the social/cultural constructs. This was not at all obvious to me before I started with the project, but now, especially after the discussions here and elsewhere, it looks unavoidable.

Or to quote one of my favorite books: "Time is an illusion. Lunchtime, doubly so."

Yeah, as @kogold mentioned in another comment - turns out if you want to make a clock that's usable in daily life, you have to import some cultural norms.

> LLMs are not there yet with images

https://genai-showdown.specr.net/image-editing

There's been a lot of progress there, it's just that an LLM that's best for, say coding, isn't going to be also the best for image edit.

To be clear, image generation models are not in general LLMs although most now use an LLM as a text encoder.

Thank you, appreciate the kind words!

That's cool, thanks for sharing!

Does the arc length signify anything? Wasn't able to figure it out, and as far as I can see, it isn't explained.

Arc length is fixed at 5/12th of a circle.

Deliberately not half so you can tell what is foreground/background irrespective of color scheme.

I did explain design thinking in early versions of the tutorial, but it made it too long.

That's a good catch! The clock is inspired by the solar noon (uses sun as the anchor), but shows clock time, so it can be of practical use.

Rereading the post, I notice I haven't made that distinction clear.

Really nice clock.

One nitpick on the day/night line: This is strongly dependent on the latitude, i.e. it kind of collides with your notion of the world clock. Maybe you boldface the label for the city to which it is referring.

Thanks for the detailed explanation, I love this - exactly the sort of "geek out" mode I was in when tinkering with the clock.

I had a fuzzy sense of these differences but had no idea that MST/solar is 17 minutes off - that's a lot! Of course there's also the difference between this and proper clock time (depending on where in your timezone you're located), and the clock shows clock time.

> but had no idea that MST/solar is 17 minutes off - that's a lot!

[This Wikipedia article](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_time#Mean_solar_time) has what I think is a good intuition here:

> Long or short days occur in succession, so the difference builds up until mean time is ahead of apparent time by about 14 minutes near February 6, and behind apparent time by about 16 minutes near November 3.

With the really nitty gritty being here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_of_time#Concept

> Of course there's also the difference between this and proper clock time (depending on where in your timezone you're located), and the clock shows clock time.

"Standard time", yes, will be different yet. I didn't comment on that b/c the whole article is, of course, building a clock that unmoors us from cultural conventions, and I think Standard Time falls very squarely in the "cultural convention" bucket. So it's more of a solar clock in that sense.
