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:
I've used the word "Bug" in quotes (twice) to emphasize my own disagreement with the use of the term.
I don't understand the amount of commotion this innocent post had caused, and for whatever it’s worth - I’m sorry.
I thought I was doing the right thing.
It's not you. I think it is from stress. It happens to everyone. You are completely innocent. Please stick around!

Seconded. It's not you OP. Please don't let it put you off.
I find the antagonism in this thread a little difficult to understand. OP seemed fairly polite about it all and it's a really minor issue, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Boy, you said it...
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.

Reason: message to OP.
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.
Just a friendly reminder for everyone. Follow the rules or the thread will be closed.

I hope for you that Slackware 15.0 will see the light sometime but it seems Pat is unstuck in time. I hope he will un-stick himself and give new life to this great distribution.

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.

This thread has turned into such a wonderful philosophical exercise.
