Wortex17<p>Is there any public repo for "common test cases/data" for common data representations? </p><p>Ie I'll be working on some graph traversal and search algos, it would be great to already have some ready made graphs that contain edge cases etc that I probably won't think about immediately. (Even if I have to convert them to my format first) </p><p>Would be great if we could stop trying to come up with test cases on our own every single time. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/programming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>programming</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/algo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>algo</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/graph" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>graph</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/oss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>oss</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/unittesting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>unittesting</span></a></p>

Christian<p>Y'know,</p><p>I really miss an algorithm for my feed. <br>People tend to go on barricades when they hear this. But I would wager they are burnt from "commercial" application of such.</p><p>I see too many posts I really don't car eabout, like knottin' a sweater. And the tech posts I never see as the current "algorithm" is "show all post by date, newest on top".</p><p>A self-hosted, under your control configured algorithm can be benevolent.</p><p>As Mastodon is right now, It is borderlining useless. Interessting (to me) posts need to happen in that moment I am on the site. An hour later (or less) and they are gone.</p><p>And I do not have time to keep reading continuously. </p><p><a href="https://social.uggs.io/tags/mastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mastodon</span></a> <a href="https://social.uggs.io/tags/selfhosting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>selfhosting</span></a> <a href="https://social.uggs.io/tags/algo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>algo</span></a> <a href="https://social.uggs.io/tags/algorithm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>algorithm</span></a> <a href="https://social.uggs.io/tags/sorting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sorting</span></a> <a href="https://social.uggs.io/tags/news" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>news</span></a> <a href="https://social.uggs.io/tags/suggestion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>suggestion</span></a> <a href="https://social.uggs.io/tags/opinion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>opinion</span></a></p>
