Show HN: Tach – Visualize and untangle your Python codebase 39 by the1024 | 5 comments on Hacker News. Hey everyone! We're Evan and Caelean, the authors of Tach. Tach gives you the tools to build a modular monolith in Python: visibility into the state of your dependencies, as well as the tools to fix them.

People at the diner seemed to like it, so I resolved to make it a real game and Bracket City was born: https://bracket.city . I love crosswords, so it's been fun to write crossword-like clues: [it contains MSG] as well as clues that would not make it into a crossword: [___ <=== you ===> hard place] I write all the puzzles and post a new one at midnight ET every day of the week. Still working on a lot of features/fixes. I'm aware that scoring based on keystrokes is pretty unfair, especially given not-ideal custom keyboard on mobile! Still thinking through the best solution there. Also fun fact: if you sign up for the email list, you get a special "Word of the Day" email ...
