You’re probably getting downvoted because what you said about TCP/IP/HTTP doesn’t make sense.

You're right. I didn't think that through. The stack doesn't imply that a local network is somehow exposed to those concerns.

What parent means is that you can with no problem build over the classic tcp/ip.

So if something is written by an LLM it makes it an infomercial?

Also, what are you comparing this post to? Because you should compare it to the author’s own writing and according to the author, his writing is not that good.


If the author cannot write then he should not write.

I, for one, enjoyed the read. Would love even more details though!

Is there any questions in particular you're curious about details-wise? I can certainly try to answer or reach it to MJ.

I’d love to read more about how the original code looks like - examples of the parts that would be so difficult to transpile / understand and so on. And perhaps an overview of the game’s architecture? It surely is a unique piece of code due to the complexity, and I’m sure there are many interesting parts and algorithms there.

Speaking of LLMs, I recently used Claude Code on my own old codebase to do such a writeup, and it ended up a very nice read for myself too - Claude managed to explain some parts of what I built better than I did :D


In my expedience, Claude Code with opus 4.5 is the first one to tackle such issues well.

They didn't test Opus at all, only Sonnet.

One of the tasks was "Build an interactive dashboard for exploring data from the World Happiness Report." -- I can't imagine how Opus4.5 could've failed that.


Check the link to the study. It has been updated for Opus 4.5.

Also >20 years in software. The VSCode/autocomplete, regardless of the model, never worked good for me. But Claude Code is something else - it doesn't do autocomplete per se - it will do modifications, test, if it fails debug, and iterate until it gets it right.

Are you at all familiar with the architecture of systems like theirs?

The reason people don't jump to your conclusion here (and why you get downvoted) is that for anyone familiar with how this is orchestrated on the backend it's obvious that they don't need to do artificial slowdowns.


I am familiar with the business model. This is clear indication of what their future plan is.

Also, I just pointed out at the business issue, just raising a point which was not raised here. Just want people to be more cautious


So you are not familiar with the system architecture. Okay.

> I live in a place where getting a blood test requires a referral from a doctor, who is also required to discuss the results with you.

You’re saying it like it’s a good thing.


At least in Poland, I can almost always see my results before my doctor does - I get a notification that the labwork is ready and I can view results online.

Also, the regular bloodwork is around $50-$100 (for noninsured or without a prescription), so many people just do this out of pocket once in a while and only bring to doctor if anything looks suspicious.

Finally, there is EU regulation about data that applies to medical field as well - you always have the right to view all the data that any company has stored about you. Gatekeeping is forbidden by law.
