one solution i'm thinking of is if game id >= 506 i put a dialog box on that asks you to input the ID number returned by the API and build a small website which fetches that daily for you (bonus i could even generate an rss feed with the id)

yup. they're fuzzing the answer (no longer sequential by date) and using an API to fetch the answer each day. it goes only up to the 23rd of december of this year, so you can't even fetch any further ahead than that to build an offline version.

i think they're fetching the word list index from an API. this makes it impossible for offline clones to match the nyt list. top notch thanks capitalism

Show thread

they didn't change the word list... they changed the way they pick the answers

today's answer should've been wordle 1622 not wordle 506

they're probably fuzzing the index specifically to fuck with people trying to clone their game

NYT changed the fucking wordle word list again

and worse they made it so there's only one single string of words now instead of one for accepted guesses and another for the answer list, they're just concatenated together

this makes it a pain to scrape for updating palmdle

i haven't been able to get a job for over 6 months now that must mean that no place is hiring

i really wish any tech jobs were hiring right now instead of just roleplaying being open

I was worried UHF wouldn't age well from when I was obsessed with it in high school, but no, the movie still whips. Extremely CC-core movie to make and write

still laughing at people who earnestly think dreamwidth is a "competitor" to cohost
