yeah it's been crazy to see how things have changed and im really glad that theres still interest in optimizing things for these benchmarks. ;P keller's pretty meticulous and has put in a lot of work for this from what i understand. im not sure where david's code came from originally, but it definitely impacted my code as i referenced it heavily when writing mine, and keller rewrote a lot of my code with his style + the improvements that he made in turn. hopefully the pedigree of minimal code can continue as a tradition, it really has a surprising impact
96 legitimately is pretty hard, i struggled doing it even in 2 minutes, so seeing it in 45 seconds is crazy. definitely gets exponentially harder for every fraction of a percent, so i think that's a pretty big achievement to hit :D
Ye this is a massive achievement indeed - I was quite astounded - I 100% will run this and I wanna read up on the paper - https://arxiv.org/pdf/2404.00498.pdf!
