This vibe coded mess is putting in so little technical effort even though it is completely unreasonable for any piece of software associated with the demoscene.

I'm suprised no one talks about this. AI Art isn't Art. AI Poetry isn't Art. And I'm tired of it. I know hacker news isn't the best place to complain about that but still... I'm not gonna read something somebody didn't put in the effort to write on their own. Especially not Poetry.

A big part of listening to Music for me is relatability. I want to understand the tools and sounds used. And then I can make something similar with the tools I have.

None of that exists in AI. Music can only inspire others if it is the result of inspiration and real decisions that can be understood.

I wanted to write a simple midi chord controller for my phone to make music, emphasis on simple. AI can't do it and couldn't even help me on small code fragments, because it doesn't look at the problem through the lens of my artistic creativity.

Vibe coding creates weak men because you reject the deeper meaning behind what you are creating. Vibe coding creates weak men because they can't code.

Isn't this just trying to find a hamiltonian cycle, isn't this NP hard? That's when I would give up, especially because you put so many constraints in it to make it human walkable.

Edit: Of course you don't have to give up, but it's good to know what you get yourself into

Edit: Here are the Notes

0 Empty

10 Pawn

1100 Knight

1101 Rook

1110 Bishop

1111 Queen

32 + 32 + 472

2 times 6 bits: position of the kings

30 bits: color mask

120 + 2*6 + 30 = 162 bits

We can store the rest using the methods from the blog post and add 18 bits for promotion, giving 180 bits.

I'm sure this isn't the most efficient way, and I think I had other methods and considered things like the bishops being able to occupy 32 squares, though special casing doesn't make sense because of promotions.

Technically if you got 8 bishops/queens/knights/rooks You would occupy another 16 bits, giving 196 bits

I think the upper limit can be reduced at the cost of increasing the lower limit

EDIT2: I think I made the assumption at the time that to promote one piece you needed to capture at least one enemy pawn, giving the space for the two bits, which means the upper bound is actually 180 bits

Would love to see other people try in the comment section

As long as contributions happen in good faith and not just for the sake of contributing, but I'm assuming there's already a system in place to ensure that for other civic services.
