| 25 Aug 2026, 1:05 AM | Hacker News | 5.5 | The entire city of San Francisco as a video game
A web-based interactive demo renders the entire city of San Francisco as a playable 3D environment at sf.thijs.gg, using what appears to be Apple Maps city data. Users can walk, drive, fly with a glider, and teleport around a textured 3D reproduction of SF streets with WASD/mouse controls, tile streaming, and neighborhood-level detail loading. Why: Demonstrates that real-world city-scale 3D data from major platform providers (here, Apple's city models) can be streamed and rendered in a browser with game-engine-style controls. Builders exploring geospatial apps, digital twins, or location-based experiences should evaluate whether Apple Maps' detailed city data is accessible for their own projects, and how tile-streaming approaches handle city-scale rendering performance. |
| 25 Aug 2026, 7:49 PM | Hacker News | 2.0 | Don't Wordle
Don't Wordle is a free daily browser game that inverts the standard Wordle mechanic: players must use color-coded clues to keep as many valid words in play as possible without accidentally guessing the hidden answer within six tries. It includes limited undos, daily stats, and social sharing. Why: This is a casual browser game with no direct practical impact for builders, AI/ML learners, or startup founders; it serves only as a potential icebreaker or light entertainment for a community meetup. |
