Practical reads on the tools and games we ship — written by the developers who build them.
Everything you need to know about JSON formatters — what they do under the hood, the eight features that separate great formatters from basic ones, common syntax errors and how to fix them in seconds, and why running formatters in your browser beats every server-side alternative.
Beyond formatting and validation: how to structure JSON for readability, performance, and forward compatibility. Real patterns from production codebases, the anti-patterns that bite at scale, and what to do about timestamps, IDs, optional fields, and schema evolution.
How professional developers bisect 'works in Postman, breaks in production' JSON bugs in under five minutes. Encoding pitfalls, BigInt precision loss, BOM bytes, NaN handling, broken Content-Type headers, partial response truncation — every gotcha and the exact diagnostic step to catch it.
The game theory, psychology, and real-world patterns that decide Rock Paper Scissors matches. Why humans aren't random, the three biases you can exploit at amateur level, opening-move statistics from championship play, and how to train against an AI in our 3D online version.
The 2,200-year history of the world's most universal decision game. From Han dynasty China to Edo-era Japan to modern World Championships. Standard rules, regional variations, lizard-Spock and other modern twists, the mathematical reason it works, and why it spread to every culture on Earth.
A complete tour of building a polished browser game with Three.js, Web Audio synth sounds, and HTTP-polling multiplayer rooms. The geometry choices for rock/paper/scissors pads, the performance budget on retina screens, why we skipped WebSockets, and the room-code architecture designed for a future tournament hub.
