I’m ready to retire. In my younger days, I remember a few pivotal moments for me as a young nerd. Active Server Pages. COM components. VB6. I know these are laughable today but back then it was the greatest thing in the world to be able to call server-side commands. It kept me up nights trying to absorb it all. Fast forward decades and Claude Code is giving me that same energy and drive. I love it. It feels like it did back then. I’m chasing the midnight hour and not getting any sleep.

I&#x27;ve been building a modern Ultima Online server emulator from scratch. It&#x27;s not feature-complete (no combat, no skills yet), but the foundation is solid and I wanted to share it early.What it does today:
- Full packet layer for the classic UO client (login, movement, items, mobiles)
- Lua scripting for item behaviors (double-click a potion, open a door — all defined in Lua, no C# recompile)
- Spatial world partitioned into sectors with delta sync (only sends packets for new sectors when crossing boundaries)
- Snapshot-based persistence with MessagePack
- Source generators for automatic DI wiring, packet handler registration, and Lua module exposure
- NativeAOT support — the server compiles to a single native binary
- Embedded HTTP admin API + React management UI
- Auto-generated doors from map statics (same algorithm as ModernUO&#x2F;RunUO)Tech stack: .NET 10, NativeAOT, NLua, MessagePack, DryIoc, KestrelWhat&#x27;s missing: Combat, skills, weather integration, NPC AI. This is still early — the focus so far has been on getting the architecture right so adding those systems doesn&#x27;t require rewiring everything.Why not just use ModernUO&#x2F;RunUO? Those are mature and battle-tested. I started this because I wanted to rethink the architecture from scratch: strict network&#x2F;domain separation, event-driven game loop, no
 inheritance-heavy item hierarchies, and Lua for rapid iteration on game logic without recompiling.GitHub: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;moongate-community&#x2F;moongatev2" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;moongate-community&#x2F;moongatev2</a>

Hi, I&#x27;ve been working on something I&#x27;ve been thinking for long time but since I had no experience with macOS screen savers I always posponed. Now thanks to Claude I was able to create a screensaver that scroll ANSI files while your computer is idle.It allow to use local ANS files or packs directly from 16colo.rs.Repo: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;lardissone&#x2F;ansi-saver" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;lardissone&#x2F;ansi-saver</a>
