I made a helper for Proximity (a word association game like #Semantle). It lets you poke around the database to see what's close to what:
github.com/adamhotep/userscrip

Screen shot of a game of Proximity in progress. There's a text box at the top where you enter your guesses, a "Guess" button beside it, then the list of guesses so far, with a colored bar indicating how close it is; the top guess is the most recent (264 away) while later guesses are ranked from closest (44 away) to farthest (tepid). The content is blurred so today's game isn't spoiled for you. 

Below the guesses is a panel of buttons including "Hint" and "Nearby...", which is circled by hand…
Another screenshot, this time of the "Nearby words" view, normally shown after completing a puzzle. A text box with its "Nearby" button is again circled by hand. Below that, it says "Nearby words" and it lists the nearest words to "proximity", including their similarity metric (proximity 1 is "nearness" with a similarity of 67.19, proximity 10 is "located" with a similarity of 45.07).

I’ve never seen this memory issue on #MacOS before. I had left Safari with Mela’s share sheet/importer app snippet open overnight and came back to a nearly unresponsive computer. I assume one of these has a memory leak. I was able to reboot via the shell using SSH from another device.

Screenshot of an error message from MacOS titled “Force Quit Applications.” It reads, “⚠️ Your system has run out of application memory. To avoid problems with your computer, quit any applications you are not using.” The window lists several applications and their memory usage. “Resume” and “Force Quit” buttons are displayed below the list.

Making to do lists is great. It always reminds me of tasks that are more than finishing the list.
