GNUGO is for kids, the real men uses GLOBIS-AQZ as Go engine:

https://github.com/ymgaq/AQ

Deep Learning, CUDA and Tensor Flows joins their forces to gives you the true experience of playing against a Go Sensei.

Quote:
GLOBIS-AQZ is a joint project developed by GLOBIS Corporation, Mr. Yu Yamaguchi, and Tripleize Co., Ltd., provided by the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), and cooperated by the Nihon Ki-in. This program uses the result of GLOBIS-AQZ.
It's a really good training partner for professional Go players and it works also with Kigo, but please do not ask me how to build it for Slackware.

An amateur usually will lose 100 games from 100 if playing against it in full mode. It's like your adversary is Skynet.

Another very strong Deep Learning Go engine is KataGo:

https://github.com/lightvector/KataGo

This one can use OpenCL as alternative to CUDA, so it works also with non NVIDIA graphics/accelerators.

It's not you. I think it is from stress. It happens to everyone. You are completely innocent. Please stick around!

I'd venture that, in addition to what some others have already mentioned about stress, there's also an inherent aversion to the word "bug" that comes into play. (Especially when the point raised was about something "missing" as opposed to "broken.")

I recently reported a bug--just like the OP, very minor, trivial, applies only to ARM, etc.--yet I wasn't subjected to any rants! (Of course, unlike the OP here, in spite of it being an actual bug, I chose to use the less fraught term "oversight.")

@Scrutinzer80: I'd like to agree with the comments above, and encourage you to stick around.

You are comparing apples and oranges. The OP here seemed to be going out of his way to be polite, yet was still chastised.

In the thread you reference, I was expressing irritation at someone purporting to "answer" a question by just repeating back what I had already written. (In fact, most of his "answers" were almost direct quotes from my OP.) Even his "edits" still showed that either he never read the post he was supposedly responding to, or that he can't read. He finally provided an actual answer on his third try--after two others had already given coherent answers.

Yes, I have very little tolerance for "help" that ignores the actual question.

E.g., I state: "I need to build a module." His response: "If it's already built, you can install it with modprobe." Absolutely useless.

Whether such responses are indicative of stupidity, illiteracy, drunkenness, or something else, is largely irrelevant in my view. Either make an effort to actually read the question before "responding," or keep your illiterate, trolling crap to yourself--simple.

So, shall we regard Slackware as a journey from now on?

Now that someone's mentioned a journey, it's time to ask:
Are we there yet?
I know the answer's no, but I couldn't resist asking.

Stuckness shouldn't be avoided. It's the psychic predecessor of all
real understanding. An egoless acceptance of stuckness is a key to an
understanding of all Quality, in mechanical work as in other endeavors.
-- R. Pirsig, "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance"

This thread has turned into such a wonderful philosophical exercise.

I never install the Y series. In some of the quotes the meaning is so deep, that it's hardly noticeable.
