Accelerated Game of Life with CUDA / Triton

Let’s look at implementing Conway’s Game of Life using a graphics card. I want to experiment with different libraries and techniques, to see how to get the best performance. I’m going to start simple, and get increasingly complex as we dive in. The Game Of Life is a simple cellular automata, so should be really amenable to GPU acceleration. The rules are simple: Each cell in the 2d grid is either alive or dead. At each step, count the alive neighbours of the cell (including diagonals). If the c

Over the past few years, electric bikes have skyrocketed in popularity (conscious decision not to use the word exploded there), with some estimates saying that ebike sales in the US grew tenfold over the last decade.

The Free Ride for EVs in the Carpool Lane Is Coming to an End

A rough year for electric vehicle adoption just got a little rougher for owners in some parts of the US. Starting next month, EVs will no longer be able to ride in the fast lane in California, after the US federal government and Congress failed to reauthorize a popular program that has given hybrid and electric vehicles access to state carpool lanes—and worked to promote the sale of electrics for more than 25 years.

Randomly selecting points inside a triangle

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-04 17:29:33

If you have a triangle with vertices A, B, and C, how would you generate random points inside the triangle ABC? Barycentric coordinates One idea would be to use barycentric coordinates. Generate random numbers α, β, and γ from the interval [0, 1]. Normalize the points to have sum 1 by dividing each by their sum. Return αA + βB + γC. This generates points inside the triangle, but not uniformly. Accept-reject Another idea is to use an accept-reject method. Draw a rectangle around the triangl

Adjacency Matrix and std:mdspan, C++23

In graph theory, an adjacency matrix is a square matrix used to represent a finite (and usually dense) graph. The elements of the matrix indicate whether pairs of vertices are adjacent or not, and in weighted graphs, they store the edge weights. In many beginner-level tutorials, adjacency matrices are implemented using vector of vectors (nested dynamic arrays), but this approach has inefficiencies due to multiple memory allocations.
