  • a few words on wordsearch..

    From August Abolins@618:400/23.10 to Jay Harris on Sun Jun 29 17:26:00 2025
    Hello Jay!

    The wordsearch seems to have evolved into a pretty good
    challenge now. The recently added new words are starting to
    appear in the mix. The "bbs" "online" theme for the words makes
    it very apropos for this medium. The diagonals upward R-L and
    L-R diagonals are still fewer most of the time. The hardest
    finds are often the 3-letter ones that were added. :(

    Good job.

    Good job.

    Pretty much all credit has to go to ChatGPT for writing the Python script that generates these, though I did have to do some tweaking.

    It was interesting taking a Python script that ChatGPT generated and feeding that into Copilot & Perplexity to see if they had any suggestions, improvements or optimizations. Neither really had much to offer other than updating the comments or changing the order of a few things.
