Creating a @scratch Connect-4 bot is not that much different from Chess. A lot smaller in code size, but it has its own challenges. What makes a winning strategy, what is a good piece structure on the way there? Having a fast algorithm helps, too. scratch.mit.edu/projects/111…

I was not sure whether it would be possible, but after a week of nightly coding I just published the NNUE (efficiently updatable neural network) version of Game of Kings @scratch Chess at: turbowarp.org/1033379869

I received this board from a fellow chess engine programmer, who was curious whether this could be solved on @scratch. And it could! Forced checkmate in 15 plies, found in 0.11 seconds (turbowarp.org/148769358, FEN: rn3rk1/pbppq1pp/1p2pb2/4N2Q/3PN3/3B4/PPP2PPP/R3K2R w KQ)

The youngsters wanted to know how the WWW looked like in its beginning, so I created "The Early Web" on @Scratch: scratch.mit.edu/projects/930…

I am looking forward to today's @CoderDojoLinz. Together with the kids, I am going to explore a little bit of TypeScript, CSS, and React to let the sun come out 🌤️ stackblitz.com/edit/sun-and-…

Evelyn Berezin, born in 1925 to Jewish immigrants from the Russian Empire, created the first computer-based word processor. Incredible achievement, and a fascinating story: youtube.com/watch?v=tb-v65mO…

Just created a @scratch game for tomorrow's @CoderDojoLinz. I haven't done Scratch for a while and forgot how much fun it is to code there 😺, love it 🤩. I hope many kids visit my workshop tomorrow.

Every 8-bit system needs a "Bad Apple" demo, and so does @Scratch! Based on the work of three Scratchers, using quadtree-based diff-encoding, this Bad Apple animation runs at full resolution and speed (21fps). scratch.mit.edu/projects/633…

Automated testing for the GoK @scratch chess engine, playing against its predecessor. Test driver runs dozens of games, provides PGN data. Uncovered regression immediately: when storing qsearch results to TT, must consider different standing pat, alright? scratch.mit.edu/projects/148…
