What is wordle can someone explain.

I looked it up the other day it’s a word guessing game, a bit like hangman but with no clues and only five letters.

With all this NFT and crypto shenanigans everyone always banging on about the blockchain. I have no clue what that is and I refuse to Google it.

you could always read about it in a way that’s easy to understand. full disclosure: I’ve personally purchased the one on bayesian probability.

Most sensible thing I’ve seen from Kanye on his latest Instagram post regarding this.

Off topic but I’m in Lithuania and it’s fucking freezing.

just been bought by the new york times - won’t be free for long

Some guy at work already made a copy of the game, which includes all 5 letter words in the English language in the source code, so the freebies will live on!

You can literally just clone wordle from its own site. The words are based on the date and in the source code. They’ve basically paid for redirecting the web address and the brand name, as it’s massively popular amongst norms.

And I just visited a tech site that had an article about cloning wordle in 50 lines of bash. Bash being the super unfriendly scripting language in Linux/Mac terminals.

Got it in 2, fuck off!
