Show HN: Flappy Bird and Wordle
Hey HN!
FlappyBirdle combines elements from the game Flappy Bird and the popular word game Wordle. I wanted to see if I could make a game that added urgency to Wordle, while also feeling outragous at the same time. I think I achieved it with FlappyBirdle. Every time you type a letter of the word, the bird flaps its wings and you get closer to the goal. It also has an easy mode that ignores the pipes, so even beginners can get a good score. Let me know if you have any ideas on how I can make it better!

Show HN: Makejinja: Automatically generate complex Home Assistant configurations
makejinja can be used to automatically generate files from Jinja templates. This allows you to load variables from external files or create repeating patterns via loops. A very interesting use case for this tool is generating config files for Home Assistant: Using the same language that the built-in templates use, you can greatly simplify your configuration. When creating for example dashboards, it allows you to create a view for each room based on a single common template, dramatically reducing the maintenance overhead of complex dashboards. I originally developed this for my smarthome setup, but thought it may be useful for others as well!<p>A concrete example for Home Assistant can be found in the tests directory: <a href="https://github.com/mirkolenz/makejinja/blob/main/tests/data">https://github.com/mirkolenz/makejinja/blob/main/tests/data</a><p>For more information like detailed features or installation/usage instructions, please visit the GitHub repo.

How to talk to GPT-3 through Siri
After getting frustrated with Siri's inability to answer pretty basic questions with actual answers instead of "I searched the web for you", I figured out how to get GPT-3 integrated pretty seamlessly with Siri. Sharing it here in case it's useful for anyone else!<p>You can see the short writeup with instructions here:

(You'll need to add your OpenAI API key to the shortcut and update your Siri accessibility settings to get it to work smoothly – see the above-linked blog post for more detailed instructions.)
Show HN: DocsGPT, open-source documentation assistant, fully aware of libraries
Hi, This is a very early preview of a new project, I think it could be very useful. Would love to hear some feedback/comments

Show HN: Glidesort, a new stable sort in Rust up to ~4x faster for random data
Hi all, I've talked about glidesort a few times on HN already, but it's finally ready for release. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. An academic paper on glidesort that goes into a lot more detail than the readme is upcoming, but is not ready yet.<p>I will be giving a talk on glidesort tomorrow at FOSDEM 2023 in the Rust Devroom at 16:10, you can seek me out there as well. In other news, I am leaving academia soon, so if you have interesting (Rust) jobs the coming months feel free to approach me.
