One thing I have found to be very useful is to ask my existing userbase of other projects if they want to test something new and give me feedback. In fact this worked so well that I am currently building a new project around this. A site th

I was thinking in the same direction but could not come up with a simple test. Your idea to start with "is not divisible by 2 .. 3 .. 4 .." is great. It's interesting, that up to 4, it's a perfect pattern: function

Interesting. I will try it out. It seems somewhat heavy though with 191 files. Probably because it supports way more then what I need. I have already implemented most of the functionality I need in a single file with just 395 lines of code.

Please see my reply to cdubzzz. I'm not building a CLI but rather a 'PhpMyAdmin for the terminal'.

I think this is a misunderstanding. I am not building a client where you type in commands. I am building a client where you can browse tables like spreadsheets. Maybe 'PhpMyAdmin for the terminal' is a better description then

I would like to stay in the terminal even when working on a DB. But I never found a decent terminal based DB client with a GUI (TUI?). So I am writing my own at the moment. A terminal based database editor. It's a bit like vim for data

Or directly into the cpu. Since there already is a web server in the cpu [1], adding a browser might enable us to run and use web applications without even installing an operating system. [1] https://www.networkworld.com/art

Unfortunately, querySelectorAll returns a NodeList, not an Array. So you cannot use forEach() on it.

Imagine a computer with a simple brute force algorithm but unlimited computing power. It would win 100:0 against AZ. Would the grandmasters look at the games and say "Yes, it won every time but it's style is rather clumsy"?

'AlphaZero searches just 80 thousand positions per second' As I understand it, we don't really know what AZ does when it evaluates a position. As it was not explicitly programmed. It could do something that is similar to eval

AlphaZero and Stockfish did not run on the same hardware. So it's not clear if the algorithm is better or the algorithm was just run faster.

The author argues that the number of meaningful operations a device can do per second will not keep growing exponentially. The reason he gives is that while we can add more parts that work in parallel, this has limited benefit: The sp

It's a simulated annealing process that happens live in front of you. Each artist has a desired distance to each other artist and is trying to get to a position that satisfies all these desired distances as good as possible.
