Guess who was in the paper? Read about how we created Hang Five @playhangfive.com! www.nzherald.co.nz/entertainmen...

Looks like a lot of people had a quiet Sunday. An impressive 76% of players solved Sunday's #HangFive puzzle "Shhhhh..."

Have a go at solving today's puzzle. Guess five related words, a letter at a time, at https://buff.ly/3EPUexX

If you want another distraction from everything else going on in the world, you could try playhangfive.com, a hangman-like game my wife and I run

There's a story behind that theme, involving my ear, a trip to the GP, the hospital and finally to an ear cleaning nurse. Yesterday was a strange day!

Play Hang Five Here: playhangfive.com/play

@playhangfive.com

If the #eqnz woke you up, why not play Hang Five (@playhangfive.com) before you get back to sleep. It's a hangman-like game made in Upper Hutt: playhangfive.com

And thank you for playing! We're so happy to bring a little bit of joy (and frustration!) to people every day!

Excited to hear you're sharing your Hang Five! And even more excited to find a community living on TWG!

Hey #WQuers! There are a few amongst you who also enjoy playing Hang Five - why not give it a go at playhangfive.com?

I agree with this. The code (and any output really) that GenAI produces is only useful if you understand it and can prompt to improve it. Or just improve it yourself. I've found GitHub Copilot invaluable when building my side-hustle product. It's interestingly been less useful at the day job.

When you put it like that...

This one seems like it might have legs at least. Killed my Twitter account today finally!

Finally deleted my Twitter account.

I wanted to keep the username safe from being taken by someone else, so renamed my account, created a new one, then deleted the old one.

Someone somewhere is going to play the millionth Hang Five game over the next few hours. Will it be you?

Just hope the LLM generation will be able to learn new things otherwise we'll all be stuck in the past!

One week into 2025, and a bunch of new players Where did you all come from?

What's been happening at Hang Five during the first week of 2025? Read our newsletter to find out! open.substack.com/pub/hangfive...

Are you including dependencies on AWS in this assessment, or just as a sales channel?

Nice work! Thanks for playing. You happened to start during what turned out to be a patch of difficult puzzles!

I'm glad you're still enjoying Hang Five!

Corrections’ “male-dominant workplace culture is an enabler of sexual harassment”, a review has found. It reported a “continuum” of incidents including indecent assault and rape, described by Corrections as unacceptable and unlawful behaviours. www.thepost.co.nz/politics/360...

My suggestion is to get everyone at work hooked on it too then everybody and nobody will be late!

Does that mean you now have to wake up earlier or that you get up later?!

Well, my follow was because you played Hang Five today!

A virtual certificate with text "Celebrating 10M users on Bluesky, #1,597,614, Arun Stephens ‪@arunstephens.com‬, joined on Oct 19, 2023"

Thanks (again). You're officially the first person that's not me to share on Bluesky as well!

I'm interested to find out what the new English-only name for KiwiRail will be.

If this new government wants to cut wasteful spending, I'm not sure a bill to make a language, that is arguably at common law, already an official language, an official language, is the right way to go about it. #nzpol
