"There is only one alternative and it's worse" "If you're not with us, you're against us"

I'm not sure who's the corpo here. Most likely not OP.

Pretty cool. I have my own setup for presentations, and I also use revealjs, but I made the choice to have the content be sourced from a markdown to be able make presentation contents as indexable and reusable as any other content produced by my team.

How does it compare with https://github.com/agent-of-empires/agent-of-empires

I'm following a startup who does just that: https://www.moment.dev/docs

It's still early stage, but I love their pitch so I'm following them with fingers crossed.

I will never be this man again

Any examples of other impressive Ren'py showcases?

I personally helped develop a game with an entire inventory/crafting system, and an isometric map. Final product never saw the light of day, sadly.

People have made some pretty slick turn-based combat systems. Some deck builders, others more spellcasting/mana oriented.

And it's renpy so like 80% of the games are straight up porn, so I'm not naming a single one here lol.

I really enjoyed Roadwarden. Interesting take on an old fantasy genre and gave me “this is ancient history” vibes. I’m not usually into visual novels but beat this game. It’s available for under $3 right now, I am showing 20 hours played, totally worth it.

Wait a minute, Roadwarden was made in RenPy? That's awesome, I never would have guessed.

Wow, that's a very pretty game. Ren'py games usually have a certain, um, sheen to them, and this doesn't have that at all.

"Analogue: A Hate Story" and its sequel do some technically interesting things, and they both also have interesting stories, I can recommend them.

Misericorde is an amazing visual novel available on Steam or itch. All built by the author (Xeecee) in Ren’py - https://store.steampowered.com/app/1708110/Misericorde_Volum...

I don't follow this system per se, but for me the unlock was to build a a map of my life from the get go, following the PARA system (projects, areas, resources, archives). It has been a game changer because now I willingly take more notes, snip more quotes etc as it's never a struggle to know where they fit.

I also use Logseq, not Obsidian, which encourages a journal like workflow. Specifically, using templates is almost like a simple interactive prompt: /template > decide if it's work project or personal area or whatever > get a pre-filled note starter, with suggested tags (I delete the ones I don't need rather than think about the ones I have to add) .

It's just so easy.

Once you got the habit of writing down a lot of stuff, and putting them in the right bucket, a lot of things become easier, and LLMs make some of those even easier.

The visual cleaning idea is really interesting. Would you mind sharing more details?

It's nothing revolutionary.

It's essentially a table layout with a plus button at the bottom. When you click it adds a new step as a row, then you pick the operation, the input columns and output column name.

If you want to add another step you click the plus again and add another row the same way. Each row can access any table field or output field defined above it in the DAG.

Then in Python a for loop runs over the steps in order and updates the data frame in place (well, in function, returning the new one). It uses a dictionary of function mappings and resolves input fields with kwargs.

I wonder how well this would work with dance videos.

Honestly not sure what I would be using this for when there's Claude remote control? Is it because you can script the telegram bot to send messages at regular intervals? But Claude has a /loop as well, so I'm still confused.

The Telegram bot is just an example (and I guess a subtle jab at Openclaw, which people tend to use via Telegram). Personally I'm hoping to set this up so it can receive Github webhooks when a pull request opened by Claude Code receives comments.

You can't send an image for example from Claude iOS app to remote control session. With this new channels the attachment you send from Telegram bot is saved into your local Telegram inbox folder ready for you to process.

Remote Control is buggy a hell, the websocket keeps disconnecting every 10 minutes. And the UI is unusable on mobile.
