Playing every game of Wordle simultaneously

news.ycombinator.com Chris K. W. 2025-12-09 17:34:26

If you’ve fallen far enough down the Wordle rabbit hole you may have heard of Quordle, a version of Wordle where you solve four words at once. If you’re looking for more of a challenge, Britannica has you covered with Octordle, where you solve eight words at once. And of course any Wordler worth their salt should be able to handle sixteen words, like in Sedecordle. And no, it doesn’t stop there: Sexaginta-quattuordle isn’t real, it can’t hurt yo– One logical extreme of this trend would be to

Just bought a new Galaxy foldable? Watch out for this alert-hiding bug

Paul Jones / Android Authority TL;DR The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 suffer from a Do Not Disturb bug. Custom Do Not Disturb settings can reset automatically, removing your call or notification filters. A fix exists for the Galaxy S25 series in One UI 8 beta 5, but not yet for the Fold 7 or Flip 7. When you buy a flagship Samsung phone, the minimum you expect is smooth sailing with the core functionality. Still, early Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 owners might want to double-check th

Elon Musk Settles Case With Former Twitter Employees Who Were Purged

Elon Musk’s X (formerly Twitter) has reportedly reached a legal settlement with former Twitter workers who sued the platform after the billionaire bought it and fired them all. The settlements come after a longstanding effort by the platform to resist any sort of payout. Most of us remember the shock and awe of 2022, when Musk, the world’s richest man, decided he had to own one of the internet’s most popular websites.

Iterative DFS with stack-based graph traversal (2024)

news.ycombinator.com Daniel Farlow 2025-12-08 23:09:08

Depth-first search (DFS) on a graph (binary tree or otherwise) is most often implemented recursively, but there are occasions where it may be desirable to consider an iterative approach instead. Such as when we may be worried about overflowing the call stack. In such cases it makes sense to rely on implementing DFS with our own stack instead of relying on our program's implicit call stack. But doing so can lead to some problems if we are not careful. Specifically, as noted in another blog post,

Should the web platform adopt XSLT 3.0?
