●MidRabbit HoleCozy

Fun personality quiz dressed as cognitive mapping, but you'll only take it once.

Strengths
  • •Shareable URL hashes let you compare cognitive coordinates with friends easily
  • •Puzzle selection spans genuine open questions where experts legitimately disagree
Weaknesses
  • •Single-use novelty with no reason to return after seeing your results once
  • •13-dimensional space is marketing flair—just plotting answer choices, not real math

Target Audience

Post Description

I built an interactive quiz that places you in 13-dimensional "cognitive space" using puzzles from quantum mechanics, Godel's incompleteness theorems, Bayesian epistemology, Bell's inequality, the Sleeping Beauty problem, Banach-Tarski, the black hole information paradox, and more.

Of course there are no correct answers. Each puzzle probes a genuine open question where smart people disagree.

Results are shareable via URL hash.

Curious how HN clusters in the space. Try it and share your coordinates.

I Made a Math Crossword

The project grafts hexadecimal arithmetic onto a tiled crossword mechanic — you pick squares or shapes that represent a target hex number, with difficulty toggles, a timer, and an on-demand hint (press H). The UI is clean and immediately playable, but the core idea is a clever niche twist rather than a broad innovation; it could use better onboarding, scoring explanation, and shareable hooks to make it stick.
