Evolution of a Go program

About the development of Moyo Go Studio, software to (help) play the Oriental game of Go. Go is a two-player zero-sum game of perfect information. It is considered much harder than Chess. Currently, in spite of enormous effort expended, no computer program plays it above the level of a beginner.

Unconventional Silence



As you can see, after I bought that super-monster PC, there was no money left for paint. :)

I didn't manage to make it silent, it seems the case fans produce a lot of noise as well. So I made a "cable snake", and put the PC next to the door, in the corridor of my microscopic 1-room apartment. This works (especially with the door closed), but the mouse- and keyboard cables didn't work. They simply are too long. Weird. So I bought a wireless keyboard/mouse combo and now I can work in relative quietness!
