I went through these challenges a while back; they were super fun! I remember at the end there was something about “notify me if there are more challenges” but I don’t believe I ever heard anything.
I’m a sucker for puzzles, and the write-ups for the challenges were the right level of silliness.
Super interesting read! Thanks for sharing.
I’d be interested to see how impactful a sparse representation would be. It’s an optimization I know to have been useful from trying it on AoC and similar cellular automata problems, but I have no clue how it would mesh with the other optimizations made here. I would guess its effectiveness would also rely heavily on the particular ruleset you were simulating, as well as your starting state.
I’ll have to try Jerboa at some point, but just the mobile site alone works quite well.
I haven’t used Mastodon, but does account exporting allow you to move subscriptions and other account info from one instance to another?
Was anyone saying it was dead? I guess it took a hit when What went down, but I don’t think people are going to stop listening to music…
This is a good reminder I should get back on soulseek, though; I used to use it and it was pretty great.
