Watching a loading spinner yesterday for ages on my X-Box and my son starting rage-clicking I realised giving users some feedback on their clicks, even when nonsensical might be a good UI pattern. Similar to users clicking buttons in an elevator for doors to close faster, even though they don&#x27;t do anything.<p>Here the users is leveled up as soon as the &quot;worm&quot; catches its own tail.<p>The MIT source <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;franzenzenhofer&#x2F;spinner">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;franzenzenhofer&#x2F;spinner</a>
