merge window for this release.

I think we had a fairly normal merge window, although I did get the
feeling that there were a few more “late straggler” pull requests
than usual. Not to a huge degree, but there was definitely an
upward bump at the end of the second week.

But on the whole, all the stats look pretty normal. ⌘ Read more

Over the past few weeks I’ve been experimenting with and doing some deep learning and researching into neutral networks and evolutionary adaptation of them. The thing is I haven’t gotten very far. I’ve been able to build two different approaches so far with limited results. The frustrating part is that these things are so “random” it isn’t even funny. Like I can’t even get a basic ANN + GA to evolve a network that solves the XOR pattern every time with high levels of accuracy. 😞
