software

• cas3.rs
  • a minimal mathematica kernel in rust capable of SKI combinator evaluation, symbolic differentiation, and cellular automata simulation
  • cas8.rs is quite similar, but uses a reference counted expressions and improves performance
  • devlog
• CloneMe.jl
  • a collection of basic language models (BiGram, MLP) trained on my livestream transcripts
  • more of the math exercises are in nn_zero_to_hero
  • devlog

electrical

• synth.kicad
  • a simple modular synth designed in KiCAD 7 and DIY double sided pcbs
