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.
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.

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.
Replaying Hellblade. I absolutely loved it on my first play-through a couple of years back, and I’m excited to go through it again.
