Yup, I'm going to start logging meticulously. I'm going to keep it all on this single page.

Started logging. Going to backlog, so to speak, i.e. write log for previous days. That means that logs that are before this date were not written at that time, but rather today!

Wrote a PRNG test program in C to test fast random algorithms to see if they are suitable for our purposes. The test uses dieharder. The random algo as it is now is quite fast, but is not that great in terms of randomness. If we throw away some of the bits generated, it will become much better, according to the tests.

Implemented a continuous GA simulation in python to see if continuous GA is usable. As it turns out, it is arguably better.

Discussion with FPGA group in Bjørn's office about the genetics pipeline architecture, and specifically, how to implement the specimen memory banks. The idea of continuous GA cropped up, but we need to do a test to verify if it actually works.

Put a minimal report shell on github, added some latex tips and instructions.
