I’m thinking seriously about doing #nanowrimo2021 with ONLY these tools
Or possibly this
Got an Apple II 80 col/64k expansion card failing a RAM diagnostic. I have at least 4 testers for this type of RAM and plenty of spares.
One bad RAM chip and it’s good as new.
A week diving deeper with the VIC-20 day 5: Smooth scrolling isn’t too hard. Getting close to the end of my week with the VIC and I appreciate it even more than I did when I started. #VICtober
10 minute lunch break “learn something”: More of the “AI” book – Breadth first searches are nice and zippy. Apple IIe for this one
A week diving deeper with the VIC-20 day 4: The VIC-20 is a graphics powerhouse ;-) #VICtober
On today’s episode of stupid races between old computery things: A brute force tree solver on a Commodore 128 in 80 column mode vs a VIC-20. The 128 is easier to visualize what it’s doing, but as expected, WAY slower. #commodore #VICtober
A week diving deeper with the VIC-20 day 3: While not as visually interesting, implementing tree searches to solve shortest path problems is fun for my brain, just maybe not your eyeballs. #VICtober
I figured out the problem with my MiniPET/SD card access. This connector is already not making good contact. Going to work on a way to extend the base of my setup so that it’s not just hanging off the end. Or maybe just put feet on it. #commodore
This is a REALLY excellent book. I’ve been going through this a chapter at a time. Very little changes to get the code to work on Commodore machines too although I’ve mostly been using the Apple IIe. Great primer to modern AI techniques if you can believe that. I give it an 11/10
