Was actually sort of a sideways pivot, and hard for me to do, because of the involved mathematics.

Initially it was more of general 'architecture astronautics' in the context of dynamically reconfigurability/systolic arrays/transport triggered architecture/VLIW, which got me some nice results.

Having read and thought much about balanced ternary hardware, and 'playing' with that, while also reading how this could be favourably applicable to ML lead to that 'pivot'.

A few years before 'this', I might add.

Now I can 'play' much more relaxed and carefree, to see what else I can get out of this :-)
