But yeah I've got zero UI skills - I just wanted to showcase the spin dynamics somehow, so shared it anyway.
And actually it should all work - just looks cramped on phone.
But early on when I started this, I prompted the LLMs strongly to focus on having accurate real world physics baked in.
I put tons of time explaining spin physics to Fable - that was some effort on my part and that's it.
the UI feedback, I'll pass it Fable when its back :D
And yep it doesn't look good on mobile devices - try it on a desktop screen if you can, much better there.
About the bounce and the answer: great feedback, thank you! When fable is back I'll incorporate these.
But no did not take just 5 minutes :D I was working on this since early Opus days and the output was consistently absolutely horrible. Fable was the first model to produce something okay - then I prompted it for hours explaining exactly what I want to demonstrate and had to even tell it explicitly a lot about how spin works - from my experience
It visualizes topspin/backspin, spin rate, ball trajectory, bounce behavior, and why the opponent’s return reacts the way it does.
I built it because spin is central to table tennis, but most explanations are either too hand-wavy or too static. I wanted something you can scrub, slow down, and experiment with.
Tomorrow I'm launching a benchmark where I check if an LLM can build a Airbus A320 from scratch without internet. (Spoiler: no LLM succeeds)
That's just misleading phrasing on this post
I'm an SRE, AI does NOT struggle with 'simple SRE tasks' OTel instrumentation by no measure is a 'simple SRE task'
The whole idea behind tools like what_breaks is to give the agent that foresight before it makes a change, moving it from a reactive "change -> lint -> fix" cycle to a more proactive "plan -> analyze -> change" workflow.
Thanks for checking it out!
About the linting use case specifically, I've found claude code hooks to be very beneficial. Not sure if other tools have an equivalent. Check that out too!
