A metatable can be defined like

local t = setmetatable({}, {
  __tostring = function() return 'custom tostring behavior!' end
})

Here are the metamethods that you can define, and their behavior

Ultralearning

The following is the notes I took years ago on the book Ultralearning by Scott Young. The bombastic title and promise to learn virtually anything quickly makes it sound as if its the typical marketing-powered fluff-filled nonfiction book stores are overflowing with, but something about this book stuck with me. After finishing it I quickly went back and wrote these thoughts down. While I don't follow his layout of plans regularly, I have used it to guide a lot of my own self education.

I've successfully utilized it when I needed to refresh on mathematics for my Master's degree (a host of skills that atrophied sigificantly for the dozen years between undergrad and the masters). I've also used it to self-study subjects like Robotics and Deep Learning (though I did decide in the end to go for the Master's accreditation).

I share it here with hopes that someone finds it useful.

Principle 1 - Metalearning

[Project Name]

Every time you choose to apply a rule(s), explicitly state the rule(s) in the output. You can abbreviate the rule description to a single word or phrase.

PyGame-based Valetudo Gamepad Remote Control

Uses PyGame, so it should work with all gamepads that work in actual games.

Nasty code ;)

It requires the gamepad to have at least one analog stick.

Modify the script and set DRY_RUN to True to avoid contacting Valetudo during gamepad testing.

I have been utilizing artificial intelligence to enhance and optimize my codebases. After evaluating various models, applications, and editors, I find the claude.ai interface with a Pro Account to be the most effective. Here’s the approach I’ve developed to achieve optimal results:

This gist contains a carefully crafted prompt and a script designed to convert your entire Laravel codebase (excluding the resources folder, which can be easily added if needed) into a TXT file with the following structure:

<File Start: ./path/filename.extension> Content of file <End File: ./path/filename.extension>

To implement this method:

	require('chromedriver');

	const path = require('path');
	const wd = require('selenium-webdriver');
	const chrome = require('selenium-webdriver/chrome');

	var builder = new wd.Builder();
	var options = new chrome.Options();
	var prefs = new wd.logging.Preferences();
	var driver;

	You are an expert in TypeScript, Node.js, Next.js App Router, React, Shadcn UI, Radix UI and Tailwind.

	Project Context: This is a dev tool built for evaluating open source projects allowing people to better understand the maintainability, activity and longevity of a given project to allow devs to better decide whether they should include or use the given open source repositories after the analysis

	Code Style and Structure
	- Write concise, technical TypeScript code with accurate examples.
	- Use functional and declarative programming patterns; avoid classes.
	- Prefer iteration and modularization over code duplication.
	- Use descriptive variable names with auxiliary verbs (e.g., isLoading, hasError).
	- Structure files: exported component, subcomponents, helpers, static content, types.

	#include "Joystick.h"

	const int16_t gate_56 = 1230;
	const int16_t gate_7 = 550;
