It actually ran quite well in Wine even back than.

I guess the simplest approach to port NNUE to GPUs would be to run a complete instance per GPU thread (ie concurrent, not parallel evaluation).

Don't do it ... there is another article floating around the internets about a guy who specializes in finding people who disappear. And apparently his successrate is well above 80% (from memory). Most people are just not that great at

It really depends on what level allow yourself to start. If you hand derive all equations in your program you are going to have a hard time ... but automatic differentiation (ad) and existing linear algebra libraries (for gradient descent&#

No it is not ... but it is the temperature a lot of people are affected by, isn't it? Same with my south side office place directly behind a huge glass window, no AC [1]. Super nice too look out ... but 35+ °C on "normal" 25+

I might be ignorant here ... but why not have disc backed datastructures and have some sort of ECS style interface that is like "normal" programming? In pseudocode: newtype id = int names = dict<id,string>() ba

Definitely not an expert here but I think the difference is that trimming machines "cut" by pinching the hair between two moving surfaces. That way you can have a 90 degree angle at the cutting edge that is much sturdier than a bl

I mostly work in a terminal, developing in a text editor, and have my terminal background set to 80% opaque so that I can see my background. Every 15 minutes I pull a random image from /r/earthporn. I enjoy having a "window&

I honestly think the comment you answered to is meant to be a joke ... Wood burning is basically carbon neutral as it just releases the CO2 that the trees have captured back into the cycle. Me, I agree to your decisions and love how it turn

Same for me ... my MsC thesis relied heavily on the result of a single complex three-dimensional integral ... I spend weeks trying to solve it by hand. SageMath wasn't able to solve it either, but it helped me towards the solution.

The problem is that most of the typing in vim is based on muscle memory ... thinking about it I have no idea what the keys I use for commenting out code. I tried to learn Dvorak and later Neo ... Not being able to use Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V like I

To be fair that does not work too well with "event games" (ie events that take so long that you can barely play a round in one day). Example: Eclipse, which we play whenever we find time and people to spend 7-9 hours for a single

We have a hexapod (18 Dynapixels) at work ... apart from giving demos to visitors it's not used at all. Gait patterns and (inverse) kinematics are a solved problem ... dynamic gaits are becoming more mainstream now, but those require m

Nice! "Animal Behavior: An Evolutionary Approach, Alcock" and "Evolution, Ridley" were mentioned in the seminars if you want to put some more books on the list :-)

Just to elaborate (mild spoilers): At some point in the Children of Time book, ant colonies become domesticated and are cultivated into general computation "devices". I definitely recommend the first book, but have yet to finish

Just to add to the collection of stories this thing comes up with: You are Joe, a survivor trying to survive in a post apocalyptic world by scavenging among the ruins of what is left. You have a hatchet and a hunting rifle. You live in a

I kind of got inspired by the original article ... and your post (which was in the top spot when I first looked at the entry). I set out to build my own digital version of the Zettelkasten system. But the more I think about it ... there is

I skimmed through the list and ended up reading the whole article about "World Models": https://worldmodels.github.io/ Definitely a fascinating read!

Which reminds me that some time ago I build a simple [kd-tree library in haskell]( https://github.com/fhaust/kdtree ). The interesting part is that it's easy to construct a (lazy) list of all points ordered based on
