If you wanted to leverage uv's package resolver for a less deliberately silly purpose, note that it's using the pubgrub-rs library under the hood: https://github.com/pubgrub-rs/pubgrub
By accident, at first, I omitted the letter u in my list of letters that I was generating packages for, which caused extremely cryptic and long (500KB of uv painstakingly explaining to me why I was wrong) dependency resolution errors on specific guesses:
by doing this:
import string
LETTERS = string.ascii_lowercase
instead of this:
LETTERS = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"
It's a few more characters to type, but easier to examine for correctness.
This is off-topic, but I use the Firefox extension Foxy Gestures. When I draw a gesture on the featured website, a pop-up shows the gesture I'm drawing.
I have never seen that before. Is that some JS/CSS trickery? Or a bug in the extension?
So I use the same extension and this piqued my interest. On a standard website, FoxyGestures will pop a status box at the bottom, with the gesture you just drew (UDUDLRLR etc). This is done by appending a div at the end of the html body.
It so happens that the website has a CSS style[0] for the last div in the body with no class and no id (search for `body>div:last-child` in the css) - and use it to indicate "admonition-danger" (maybe to show errors?).
Not directly related to uv, but I started looking into this now and stumbled upon this discussion about how it's easier to have Quake "render" onto an oscilloscope than Doom:
npm allows you to have multiple versions of one package installed, so I’m not sure it will work for this, unless you use a package manager that allows you to set constraints like “only one version of this package can be installed.”

Here's my favorite of the Soduku attempts at this (easier to get your head around than Wordle since it's a much simpler problem): https://github.com/konstin/sudoku-in-python-packaging
Here's the same Sudoku trick from 2008 using Debian packages: https://web.archive.org/web/20080823224640/https://algebraic...
Funnily enough, I did a Sudoku one too (albeit with Poetry) a few years ago: https://github.com/mildbyte/poetry-sudoku-solver

Yet another reason to use `uv`!
I try to avoid bugs like this:

I'm wondering if one could be done for https://WordGlyph.xyz?
I express my deepest gratitude to the author for not publishing all those "wordle-*" packages to the PyPI. Thank you!
Next step: playing Doom with uv's dependency resolver

Extra points when it runs on an oscilloscope (because pregnancy testers are boring now).

Drawing images on an oscilloscope is fun, but I'm not sure if I would count it as a novel hack.
I'm still waiting to see doom run on a pregnancy test
Yes please

Ok, now do npm!

Yeah, turns out I should have read TFA:
