Show HN: Gave Claude a casino bankroll – it gambles till it's too broke to think

Article

• Demo: Claude given token “bankroll,” plays casino games until broke
• Tokens deplete → context shrinks — Claude literally can’t think as well
• Metaphor for context-window resource exhaustion
• Built as a live interactive demo site

Discussion

• Commenters: Claude repeats itself heavily; prompt engineering could help
• Site went down during the HN traffic spike
• Reaction mostly amused; thread stayed brief
