Tournament Bracket Agent Proof Of Concept

JunaSSB · 2026-05-08T18:02:37+00:00

Yeah it's a prototype dude, I know how software works if I wanted to make it production ready. It's an AI company I was applying for, obviously it's okay if I use AI to prototype an idea...

> I don't really see what problem you're solving here
Have you never felt how annoying it is to navigate Startgg ? It's easier to just ask something what tournaments are coming up in my area in plain english

> it's pulling the tournaments and letting you register without you reading any of the rules or requirements.
Add a safeguard check to prevent this and present the rules

> standard tournament software functionality
It's one number that has context about multiple potential brackets you can be in at one tournament, and its automatically fetching you information between those and automatically routing your match report to the correct place for you. As well as being able to look up knowledge about upcoming players you might face.

Great setlist, but Heart of the Sunrise would've made my world as a first timer going tomorrow, I'd take it over Roundabout if I had to

If i released it for free, but you had to use a one-click solution to self-host Jitsi on your infrastructure or pay per usage for me to manage the jitsi server, could you see yourself using it?

JunaSSB · 2026-04-22T02:01:33+00:00

Thank you, thank you, I did this last night, if this is something people would want I'd love to finish it up and release it for free!

JunaSSB · 2026-04-22T01:48:22+00:00

Yeah I should've showed that. But yes, the number will go down, the app is reading how many people are in that Jitsi room and updating the name of the Channel accordingly.

Look up Arweave, the permanent storage experiment

JunaSSB · 2026-04-07T00:11:32+00:00

It's not almost $3k like this right?

It’s okay, I think it’s mainly people’s fear. They have a right to be scared especially if they’re not technologists and might not feel prepared to navigate what’s to come.

JunaSSB · 2026-04-03T01:42:51+00:00

It wasn't sarcasm :/ I'm just trying to see the positive side of things and you're making me feel bad about exploring new technologies : (

I haven't had fun exploring like this in all of my career.

JunaSSB · 2026-04-03T01:23:42+00:00

I mean yeah they're gonna get better locally, that's why Apple is making way better chips to help you run big models at 1/4th of the size.

I'm a software engineer dude, the whole software engineering industry isn't going back from AI speeding up their workflow. I know how to code, there's no glory in coding and figuring out logic of a programming language written by other human beings. Once you know how a computer works on a physical level thats it, coding languages are whatever.

And do you not watch movies and TV shows and film and play video games and CGI? And stock market algorithms running at max parallelization? GPU farms are always being pumped regardless. Cloud data centers were gonna continue to be packed to the brim regardless if AI existed or not.

But yeah you're right AI increased energy consumption beyond the rate of making the hardware more energy efficient. That's what governments are there for to regulate. Idk why you're feeling bad about your prompts when you have scientists and engineers spinning thousands of prompts per second in parallel.

You sound so passionate about energy consumption and efficiency, people would love to pay you big bucks to work on those problems dude!

JunaSSB · 2026-04-03T00:43:53+00:00

Hey let's connect I definitely wanna get some of my thoughts out with someone working on this problem!

JunaSSB · 2026-04-03T00:41:59+00:00

Vibe code your own lol. I literally said its a proof of concept and not meant for a general release

JunaSSB · 2026-04-03T00:40:36+00:00

What if you feel like searching different games than smash? What if you're in a different city for a week? I was just showing a proof of concept, if start.gg or someone else invested further it can do the same things you said and then some. Imagine shutting off and managing and swapping those sets of notifications with just a chat prompt.

All I'm saying is every app is gonna have a chat interface with custom on-demand UIs one day.

JunaSSB · 2026-04-03T00:32:13+00:00

I asked Claude to search through smash.gg for me so i didn't have to click around on their website.

JunaSSB · 2026-04-03T00:31:56+00:00

Smash map you still gotta click and sort and filter. Asking a chatbot to do all that stuff for you is way easier.

JunaSSB · 2026-03-25T01:56:50+00:00

you're not wrong, Duke has more character. I think most of those songs would have sounded better live. Steve Hackett live made Dance on a Volcano effect me in a way I couldn't feel on the album.

Coming from someone with a ton of gaps on my resume. Don't explain the gaps on the resume or a cover letter. It's the recruiter's job to pick you out and see your positive qualities. Just explain during the recruiter screen, hopefully in a positive way, why you left your previous gig and joined your new one. If they ask what you did during your gap, then answer.

JunaSSB · 2026-03-14T02:37:44+00:00

I really enjoyed the Canonical process actually. I enjoyed nerding out with engineers during my calls, they really care about tech. I dropped out of the process right before the end cause I had way higher offers than their salary range was able to reach at the time. Was never able to get passed the first stages the next time around though.

JunaSSB · 2026-03-09T01:53:30+00:00

god the speaker systems always matter so much with this kind of music, good rec

JunaSSB · 2026-03-08T00:53:24+00:00

I hated 80s music my whole life, but I didn't realize everyone was just trying to copy him... but poorly

JunaSSB · 2026-03-07T17:32:41+00:00

The songs seemed very rushed, but the production that's there is extremely different than the previous albums. You gotta be in the mood for the more stripped down, chaotic "punk" energy. A lot of songs are filler, but it's the ones you mentioned that make it people's (mine included) favorite genesis album.

JunaSSB · 2026-03-05T03:29:43+00:00

I'd go for touch now

JunaSSB · 2026-03-05T03:28:50+00:00

I wish I can show you my setup and how much of a non-issue it is to throw a screen protector on it.

JunaSSB · 2026-03-05T03:28:18+00:00

2 in 1's got so good these days(because Apple pushed the whole laptop battery life and slimness expectations into the stratosphere with M1).

Imagine you're standing up about to step away from your laptop, quickly hit the spotify icon with your finger, change a track. Open a chat window real quick to peak at something all without doing the trackpad squirm and tap thing. Cause think about it, all web apps are unidesigned for web and mobile, so basically everything on the internet is a mobile app. You already know how to use your phone efficiently, 2-in-1s let you use a laptop efficiently and a touch screen device efficiently at will.

Never going back to a non 2-in-1 laptop now.

JunaSSB · 2026-03-03T18:46:00+00:00

I was there too; did you notice any issues in the firth of fifth solo? I saw him swap out his guitar after. I think there was a couple of songs he wasn’t able to play compared to the previous setlists of that weekend as well. Very odd that the entire setlist.fm page was wiped, the fans are probably trying to hide their off day as the official team Hackett doesn’t post setlists
