I find this very interesting. When I was programming for the SNES, we used the same techniques, but the SNES has 192KB of RAM and up to 1 to 4 megs of ROM. Some cartridges were much smaller.

Apple Took All My Money

Not personally interested in laptops, but I am impressed with the progress Apple has made with its custom processors. Apple was the first company to introduce a 5-nanometer processor. I'm waiting for AMD and Intel to catch up. Until recently, Intel was struggling to go from 14-nanometers to 10-nanometers.
The biggest chip manufacturer is in Tawain. It has been reported that Intel has contracted for 100% of the not yet available 3-nanometer chip production. In other words, everyone else is out of luck and would have to look elsewhere to produce faster chips.

Neat AI does Lenia - Conway's game of life arrives in the 21st century
The "Game of Life" is not an actual game, but a computer simulation invented around 50 years ago. It was one of the first things I learned about computers. It follows a couple of simple rules that create interesting self-propagating patterns.
Apparently, someone has taken this to a much more advanced level.
