- A Shopify engineer, inspired by CEO Tobi Lütke's "wonder if we could build that?" culture, built Reflex — a Qwen-based experiment implementing the "jev" idea of structured decisions + probabilities.
- It runs client-side in the browser via WebGPU and is playable online, turning a viral discussion about decomposing tasks into a working prototype.
