AI Analysis
●●●BangerWizardryBig BrainRabbit Hole
Training a neural net to play Pong entirely inside a custom NAND-based CPU.
Strengths
- •Building an ALU and CPU strictly from a single NAND gate function is serious constraint craft.
- •Running inference on a quantized neural network in custom assembly is genuinely wild.
- •The entire stack fits in a few files, making the abstraction layers easy to trace.
Weaknesses
- •Python simulation limits the educational value compared to FPGA or Verilog implementations.
- •The custom assembly language has no tooling beyond the included two-pass assembler.

SCPN Fusion Core – Tokamak plasma SIM and neuromorphic SNN control
This repo compiles stochastic Petri-net control policies into sub-millisecond spiking LIF networks and pairs them with reduced-order plasma simulators and Rust acceleration — not something you see every day. It ships validation against real equilibria/shot databases and a Streamlit dashboard, so the project feels like a serious research-to-prototype pipeline rather than paper-only ideas; the tradeoff is deliberate reduced-order physics (not a TRANSP/GENE replacement), which is fair for real-time control work.
