auramash, built with ❤ by
todo for auramash:
- switch from Elo's algorithm to something like glicko2 to avoid volatility
- add a mode only for profiles with 5,000+ followers
- make shit faster
if you've watched The Social Network, then you should remember the scene where Zuckerberg hacks Harvard and develops Facemash, an app that shows two Harvard student and lets a user choose which one is more attractive.
this is an app that shows two twitter profiles, and lets a user choose which has more aura. i was heavily inspired by the movie scene - i tried to replicate the exact same design/UI as the original facemash, and used the same algorithm (Elo's algorithm) used in the movie.
(and yes i listened to the social network soundtrack the entire time i was building this)
^ live tweets, inspired by zuckerberg's real blog posts when he was building facemash
^ what the "real" facemash looked like
