AFAIK, it's solar powered and not wind powered.

This looks super familiar, I think I used the french edition back in '83!
Thanks for sharing, brings back lots of good memories!

I have (the now older) XPS 13 with Ubuntu 18.04 and it's awesome. The infamous coil whines were a bit of a bummer but since upgrading (from 17.10) to 18.04, I haven't heard it again ...

Well, the naming was supposed to evoke "a cocktail" and "things bubbling up" as that's part of the concept. You are not the only one to have given me some sort of grievance about it :-|

I wasn't offended and it is a valid question :) And yes, I'm definitely into 80s stuff and GOFAI.
I do plan to have some GPU support (probably by supporting existing ML framework) at some point (sooner if there's demand for it). I also like to explore logical inferences on GPU (but I haven't given it much thought yet).

Thanks. Can't take credit for it as it's heavily inspired by http://musicforprogramming.net/

hey (author here), so the code isn't available as I haven't decided to open source it or not yet. You are correct to point out that it's a LOT slower than more traditional Prolog due, in part, to a different architecture.
Re:Ask HN: Is machine learning worth learning for hobbyists/pet projects?

I'll think it depends on your end goal. Do you want to explore new network architectures and/or associated functions, or use (your own or public) data set to explore possible applications?

Logic programming is part of what people now call GOFAI (Good Old Fashion AI). I think it still has a place in building intelligent systems, but these days most people equate AI to Machine Learning, unfortunately ...
